Cincinnati Club Festival

Just read on the Blonde Poker Forum (similar to 2+2 but better) that my club here in Glasgow, The Cincinnati Club, is putting on a Festival at the beginning of December. It will last 4 days starting on a Thursday and run through to Sunday.

The Thursday night is a team event. Five players per team £200 per team registration. Friday night is a £75 NL 10,000 chip tourney with half hour blinds. (Should be a great tourney). The Saturday night is a £50 pound with 2 rebuys or a rebuy and top up. I am a little undecided about this one as the Stanley Casino is running their monthly officepoker.net tourney the same night (I played in it this past Saturday scroll down for tournament report), so we'll see. The Sunday is the main event and starts around two in the afternoon. A £200 freezeout with hour blinds, which should go through the night. That is a lot of money for one tourney so depending on how I do in the others, I may enter.

That is a lot of poker for one weekend so I told my girlfriend last night I would pay for a flight for her to go home and see her family. I know that sounds silly, but I wouldn't be able to play all the events if she was home without feeling guilty. (Let it be known she is fantastic about me playing and would never stop me from playing, at the same time she is human and spending the weekend 'alone' and seeing me for a few hours at a time would not be her idea of fun.)
