Aw shucks. It was my pleasure giving you the tips while we played.

We played in a few 10 man hold 'em tournaments first; entry fee of $660, winner gets $3000, 2nd place $1800, 3rd place $1200.

I finished second twice and third twice out of six tournaments, so I came out about $2000 ahead. JG took an o-fer.

Then we moved over to $20-40 seven card stud, where I won about $4000. JG lost about the same amount. :p

If the truth be told, however, JG was getting bad cards, in which case you're supposed to play tighter, not more loosely like he did. And he did suffer one or two really bad beats.

But I strongly suggested that he stay away from casinos for now.
