Scott,
thanks for encouraging us to play up. I would not have been satisfied winning lower the way I played first round.
I always play against myself, always trying to play to my potential or better. We all like to win, or get second and shoot for that guy next time. I did play with gents that were my level. Keep pushing us up.
Some day, I would like to play with an open player on my card, with out feeling humiliated. I usually play better when I play with much better players, and usually they try to be encouraging. I would like to play and learn from the best. DU doubs may be my chance with a good draw of the cards . . .
