UPDATE!!!
My event, 7-Card Stud, was scheduled for Tuesday, Oct. 20.
We played the final four tables on Saturday the 24th....I made the second cut and finished 12th over all. (four seats away from the final table.....)
As a result of periods of bad luck at critical times, I didn't make it to the final table. However, I did do well enough to finish on the money list which netted me a few hundred dollars beyond my $400 entry fee/buy-in....More details later.
Thanks everyone for your support and encouragement.....I've been dabbling in Texas Hold 'em...and may participate in the event that is held for 'seniors' just for the fun of it....
