Now, ive read the other reviews, i could BARELY tell the odor of smoke. And out of 45 people I ended up finishing 12th. Again Chris made sure I was enjoying myself and if i had further questions, what a stand up guide and if i ever had a poker room i would want him representing my company there. So I got my courage together and signed up for the weekly Omaha tournament.

Having never played a live game, i went to the poker room to take a chance, my anxiety was through the ceiling, but a Gentleman named Chris (the floor manager in the poker room) took me aside answered every single stupid question I had, showed me how to observe other people playing, reassured me I'd be ok.

I searched and found that a casino called Firekeepers had a weekly Omaha tournament, so I traveled 2.5 hours. I've read and practiced and played poker online for ten years, and had never played a live game in my life.
