The big blind is how much??!!!

Whew! It's been a fast moving couple weeks for me. Sorry for the lack of posts but I Just arrived back from a "guys only" trip to Tunica, MS. I had a great time. For those of you (LOL like someone is making the counter on the page go up besides me) who have never heard of Tunica, try to imagine about six casinos in a cow pasture and you get a pretty good picture of the place. It sounds awfully back woods, but I was actually impressed with the rooms, the casinos, and the prices. I originally had not planned on going on the trip for financial reasons, but I ended up changing my mind when one of my friends got me a buddy pass. Sixty dollar round trip tickets rule! The main reason I went was to test my metal against real poker players and see if I could hang. It just so happened that the WPT (World Poker Tour) was wrapping up the week before and the WSOP (World Series of Poker) was in full swing while I was in town, so there were some HUGE names out there. While I didn't play with any of the truly big boys, who were playing $500/$1000 no limit games in the same poker room I was in, I did play with some damn good players. It was a humbling experience for me. The learning curve was huge and I gobbled it all up. I lost a bunch at first and made a comeback in the end. Overall I went home lighter in the pockets but it was a blast.
