Luck of the Irish?
Happy St. Patirck's Day to everyone from your host, McGrupp. This is the one day of the year when I am not considered an alcoholic... since every place I know that serves liquor is encouraging serious binge drinking over the entire day. No where else in the world... except America... can the powers to be hijack a religious holiday and turn it into a rowdy, drunken, puke fest... sponsored by Budweiser and Guinness of course. Alas, I'm bloody Irish (and an alcoholic... thanks Mom & Dad for passing on the gene!) so everyday is my St. Patrick's Day... but today gives my non-Irish friends an excuse to get drunk at lunch time, get angry for no apparent reason, and sing dirty drinking songs at the top of their lungs. Enjoy your special day and don't forget to tip your bartenders.
I'm hoping that Irish luck follows me today. I'm hitting the tables at Party Poker to play in the World Poker Tour (WPT) super satellite qualifier ($22 + $2 entry fee). If you win that tourney you get a seat in the WPT super satellite and can win a shot at the WPT event at the Bellagio in April.
Alas, I just found out that Party Poker is also holding 2004 World Series of Poker super satellites all month! I will definitely play in one, possibly two.
