A penny at a time..........

I put in a little online poker action last night. I played a $0.25 no-limit tournament. Yes, you read that right. One quarter to enter the tournament. 3200 players entered the tournament with a starting pot around $850.00. So the winner got a $100 return on his quarter investment, with 600-some players getting paid.

I played well against what could be termed inferior players. Had some good hands early on and made some good raises to steal some blinds as well. Finished 310th out of 3200+ players, so you have to feel good about that. I got a $0.72 payout on my $0.25 investment. Roughly 2 1/2 hours of fun with a 47 cent profit. Woo-hoo!
