Rob and I were at Windsor this weekend. Well, most of our time was spent at Amherstburg where friends of ours live, but we did head to the casino for one of their $110 tournaments.

Yeah, the tournament wasn't long for any of us. The structure is just so crappy. Everyone starts with 2000 chips and first level is 25/50, but the blinds double every 20 minutes. Essentially a super turbo.

The play was bad as expected. A lot of limpy limpy. But none of us had luck on our side. My plan, knowing the structure wasn't the greatest, was to fold pretty much everything except my strong hands and try and double up early. I had JJ in the big blind and got it all in, but ran into AK that caught the K on the river. That crippled me. The was another orbit and what do you know, JJ in the big blind again. I only had 4xBB raise at that time but I knew a stop and go wasn't going to work either, so put it in and get two callers. This time JJ is no good against KQ with the K on the turn.

So I think we were at the casino for at most an hour. All of us busted not only before the money but before final table. The rest of our time was spent, as I mentioned at Amherstburg. We played in their home game there and stayed the night to get to the casino early to register for the tournament.

We definitely hope to do this again. Maybe next time we will make some money at Windsor.
