My first time - Followup

Well, the game started at 7:00. I left right after work (5:00) to sign up. Too late, Todd got there just before me and got the last spot. We called Larry and Mandy but they were already on their way.
We got to play a side table though. Eight players. $20.00 each. I came in 4th. Not too bad for my first time! Mandy came in 5th, Larry came in 3rd and Todd won. We all did well.
As suspected, the multi denomonational chips were a lot of work trying to remember how much they were worth and how much I was supposed to be putting in the pot. I guess that will come with practice.
My luck...the place is closing down for renovations till mid May. We will return though!
