Toy train

When you're used to tournaments with a $200,000 buy in, any tournament with a buy in of $50,000 or less feels like a toy train. Last night, I pre-registered for a $200,000 buy in tournament, but it got cancelled due to a lack of entries :-( I had to settle for a toy train. The good news? I made the money, for the fourth tournament in a row. The not-so-good news? I didn't make much of it.

Toy train

Last night, the midnight train went missing again. I had to settle for a toy train, a tournament with a buy in one twentieth the size of the midnight train's buy in. This attracted a much larger field, but the payouts were minuscule. I ended up making the money, such as it was. I fully expect the midnight train to be running tonight.
