    Went to play in a Texas Hold-em tournament at Monarch Sands Beach Resort at Tambobo Bay, recently. Even though I lost money in the tournament, I had a great time. Beautiful yellow sand beach, great food and service and large cottages. My wife & son (6) loved it. They are adding a dive operation and there is plenty of fishing and snorkeling. It's about an hours drive towards Siaton, turning left at the Tambobo Bay sign. P900 per night for the whole family.

    Apparently they are going to have a Hold-em tournament one weekend every month, for aficionados like me. Now if only my playing skills were as good as the surroundings.

    "...even Yabs might like it."

    You are kidding, right?

    Sorry. You're right. Brain disconnect. Yabs wouldn't like it although it isn't run by Asians who Yabs seems to have a hatred for. Withdraw the comment. Yabs hates everything.

    Actually, I heard that Yabs and his sweetheart have joined "Couples for Christ", so maybe we will see a more rationale side to the young hipster...

    If Couples for Christ can change the bigoted, racist, whining, crybaby Yabs then good for them. I don't believe it.

    I heard that there is also a Texas Hold Em game for the wives at the Monarch Sands Resort Tournament. Is that true? My wife would like to play Texas Hold Em although she is not an experienced player. I think it's part poker playing and part socializing that she's looking for. Some activity to increase her circle of friends while engaging in something she has an interest in. When is the next tournament?
