2nd match was with Pete Zeigler (1651) , won the series 2-1, decent draws
3rd match was with Rob Long (1548), won the series 2-1, funny story on this opponent to follow.

Afterwords we stayed around and played poker, 20 buy in tourney. I made it to the final 2 and split the pot with Steve Knapp for 120 bucks,
Tomorrow my first match is against Kevin Lucas (1392) http://www.cross-tables.com/results.php?p=811 , right now its me and him neck and neck for the class prize (150 bucks), so I hope to do well.
