Wayne, I've also noticed the limit games getting tighter, with 2 to 3 players seeing the flop most hands and players winning pre flop with a raise on many hands. Hard to pick off those multi player pots when there are so few of them. Fortunately, pot limit and no limit poker still seem to be maniac magnets. I tend to score better on the pot limit games, as I am much less likely to lose my entire stack with trip aces vs. a straight. And I can't go all in pre flop, which saves me a lot of money. No two cards are really worth your entire stack. <G>

Horse racing was nice today. A 16-1 horse looked like the best horse in the first race today, so I put him on top of my exacta. He came in over the 4-5 favorite, but paid a nice $144. Then, the second race saw a boxed 14-1 shot hit second under the favorite, and that was half as nice as the first race. After that, I had a few losers and a couple of kiss your sisters, then hit a nice tri on the last race. All in all, a fine day at the track.
