Hey John! Showers and thunderstorms every day through Thursday. Cold front finally goes through on Friday, weekend looks dry. Are you still here on Sat. 7/28? Sounds like we could have a good group here that day.

So it looks like we'll have a pretty good group of UICers present on Saturday July 28th: DocSpa, QuickCall, BestBet, TenFurlongs, MadameBlum, Hezethebest, Hooper (?), Propro and JohnnyB. Anyone else thinking about making the trip? The weather should be okay, just a small chance of showers during the afternoon. Post here if you are coming. Most of you know where we congregate in the backyard, but we will also meet at the Big Red Spring after the third race. See you there!!

On the fence at this point. My son has $600.00 buyin options at both Rivers Casino in Schenectady (I would be definite) or back to Niagara Falls Summer Slam for their Main Event on the heels of his 18th place finish out of 670 last weekend there. He's cashed in 6 of 8 events he's attended there including a title so that might likely be his choice. Not out yet but would be definite if he chooses Rivers as I'd book Albany Saturday night hoping to see him in action Sunday. Will decide soon.
Edit at 2:10 - Conditions really deteriorating there today and the turf races have just been scrapped to the main track. I've been called "Longshot Larry" in the past and I think I am a real longshot to make it there tomorrow given the terrible conditions today. Bright and sunny here in Syracuse. First party group outing of the year is the 3rd in the Turf Terrace. I hope conditions improve by then. If things brighten for tomorrow I know where to find the group after the 3rd race! If I don't make it, have fun and the best of luck.

I saw the pictures in the other thread and despite the conditions created on Friday that carried into the Saturday scratches I'm sure you guys had a good time. I'm sorry I missed Johnny and Pete this time around but I will see the rest of you sooner than later. I didn't make the drive to Niagara Falls yesterday as while my son Mike advanced to Day 2 there late Saturday night he entered the Day 2 field of 109 that were left with only 33,000 chips, the 3rd LOWEST in the field. Remarkably, he ran his stack as high as 1.4 Million and ultimately made it to another final table checking out 9th for $5,960.00 or nearly 10-1 on the entry fee. I was exhausted just following along on the "live" feed APP so I can't imagine the mental toll on him for the 10 hours of play yesterday. With nothing scheduled this weekend I highly recommended Saratoga to him for some "R & R"! LOL.
