With all the regular travel to see my grandchildren, it's been a minute since I've been able to play in a big tournament. Was able to make it to today's Chuck Markulis Memorial at Hard Times Sacramento in Sacramento. I've missed shooting in this beautiful room. With just over 90 players, and a first round bye, I am just starting my first match. Going to be a long day....
