Revisiting an old friend

I revisited an old friend last night. For the first time in nearly half a year, I played an MTT 8-game tournament. Although I didn't make the money, I came within shouting distance of it. I had a lot of fun playing poker flavors other than hold'em. You can't make a lot of money playing 8-game, but you sure can have fun. I'll keep that in mind :-)
