For some reason I just got a copy of All In Blackjack magazine in the mail and its purpose in life seems to be to promote the new Elimination BJ game. This is the game that is tied to the new TV show.
Anyway I signed up for the free web site where you can play for free or at cash tables just like the poker sites. Well they had some free sit and go tournaments and I did pretty well in the 3 I played in - I won some points in 2 of the 3. Last nite I was looking at the pay part of the site and found a freeroll for a trip to the big tournament in St Kitts. To get the trip you had to place in the top six and then win a tournament in October. I decided to sign up and placed second at my table in the first round. The first 2 positions advanced to the next round. I then proceeded to win my table at the next 3 rounds before getting bounced out. Out of 729 entries I finished about 15th. So close yet so far. But really was a lot of fun.
