YZ, that's what I keep telling myself. I have three mantras about the incident: 1. It was my first tournament, so that's not too bad. 2. It was on Paradise Poker, one of the sites with the very best players. 3. I beat six out of seven of the entrants. 4. I went out on a hand where I was ahead. I had an ace/jack of hearts and the other guy had an 8/9 unsuited. I even chuckled when I saw he'd gone all in with such a pitiful hand. Then an 8 and a 9 hit on the flop and I was history. <G> Hey, that was four mantras. Perhaps my lousy arithmetic is the other reason I went out early.
