Hello my name is dirkb. Yakshemash !

What I didn't really point out in my last post was that for the first time in what seems like forever, I was actually really happy with my play throughout the evening. Granted, some of my opponents and board situations made it easy for me, but I felt like I had a really good grasp of everyones play even as their play varied with changing stack sizes. I was especially pleased by this since I had been afraid that I might be a bit rusty since i play so rarely these days. Anyway, I'm excited about playing again and might even skip soccer practice to play tonight, if i can get a seat that is !
