I'm here.
I'm checked in. I'm waiting for GeoffM to show up. I'll scope out the place and make sure it's suitable for Sunday's game. There are tons of places near here where we can eat, so we'll have our pick. |

Good to see you, Geoff... Sorry I couldn't hang longer. Maybe we can have a couple more on Monday.

Not sure what your plans are, but here's my timetable,
Friday night 11pm and after--- available. Saturday 12noon to 4pm --- available. If you can make it out to Bloor and Jane, there's a good sports bar here. Get on the Subway, and it's about 25 minutes from where you are.

Look up Mick E Fynns for a good chillen tavern, and NewHo's(sp?) chinese food for the best chinese in the city. I have no idea what streets any of these are on, as anytime I am in T. it is in a drunken haze. My buddy goes to Ryerson and anytime we go visit those are the places he drags us.

Well if your buddy's at Ryerson then they should be close by as Ryerson is almost literally across the street from TP's hotel.

Look like we're not going to have a huge turnout tomorrow, but I hope you guys (RR/N1k) are still planning on coming. I actually haven't even seen MB yet, so I don't know what her exact plans for tomorrow night are or how many people she will be bringing to the "game." As long as she doesn't cancel on us (booooooo!), we'll be good to go. But dinner is probably going to be just the three of us.
Let's shoot for meeting around 5:30 or 6:00 in my hotel's lobby.... I'll text you from my cell phone to confirm as the time gets closer. BTW.... I'm not sure how late it's open, but the lounge here should do just fine for our game. The tables are a bit low, but beggers can't be choosers. It will work. Don't forget your chips, cards, etc... See you tomorrow! And now... off I go to the wedding. Congrats in adance, MathBabe. |

You bet your ass we're still heading down! We'll probably be in town around 2 or so and we're going to play Joe Tourist wandering around downtown, through the Eaton Centre, HMV, etc. 5:30/6 sounds perfect for meeting up for dinner! I look forward to your text!

I cant make it this time for sure. I have to do a huge ass presentation on Nanotechnology on wednesday and have a smaller project due on monday that I get to work on with the hottest girl in class tomorrow. If this meetup was sometime in the summer, I could swing it no problem.
That gives me an idea. Maybe I will throw a big home game at my new place sometime this summer. Everyone is invited.

MathBabe... correction, MRS. MathBabe's wedding was great. I've never been to a wedding quite like it and really enjoyed myself.
Dim Sum in the morning! |

Rob and I are making our preparations to head down (it's fun packing up a baby to take to Grandma's). Looking forward to meeting anyone who does join us.
And Congrats Mathbabe! |

Robbie Robb and I are out of our little homegame tourney already, finishing 5th and 4th respectively. N1k is taking on MathBabe and Mr. MathBabe as I type this.
I still can't believe MathBabe called all in with 10 high against me.... AND WAS RIGHT! LOL.... Remind me to post that hand sometime. It was interesting, to say the least. And I was totally asking for it. |

5 players. $20 SNG. Nice blind structure.
Mr. and Mrs. are honeymooning on Tuesday - going to Cuba, in fact. They are sticking around until then to hang out with ME, of course! The chicks are heads up right now.

It was nice to get away for a while. And it was fun to meet a few people from the forum.
And I appreciate everyone donating their money to me.

Thanks!
It has been a busy month or so, that's for sure. First that contract I should have turned down... then the wedding weekend... then a week in Cuba. But I'm back now!
Thanks Bunny, TP, N1kita and Robb for the good wishes! Thanks TP for making the trip and arranging the hotel lobby tourney! Thanks N1kita and Robb for getting a babysitter and driving all that way for such a minor game - it was great to meet you! Oh, and TP, Mr. Mathbabe loves his TP hat and wore it all week in Cuba. Best wedding gift ever! Mrs. MathBabe (now safely married and planning my return to poker...) |

It was a lot of fun. I'm glad Rob convinced me that I could leave my son for a whole day. It was still tough though. |

Welcome back, MB. I expect to head all about Cuba sometime, and hopefully see some photos.
Glad the Mr. likes his hat...
