I stayed up a little later than planned last night. I was cleaning the home office and playing poker. I played two sit-n-go's and I got bad beat out of both of them. The first was a worse beat than the second. In the first, villian had only 2 outs to beat me. I had top top pair and a flush draw and villian had second pair. The second hand I had AA and raised 3x, it folded to SB who called. BB folded. Flop was 89Q. Not the hand I wanted, but I had come back from 30 to 790, so I pushed all-in. Villian called with 9j. So, villian had (3(j)+2(9)4(10))= 9 outs. Out of the 2,162 possible hands, there were 717 hands that would beat me. Villian was 2:1 against, he didn't have odds to call as pot was closer to 1:1. In any case, I got the money in the middle with the best hand twice, and was beaten. The fact that I was down to 30 and came back was pretty good though.

As for training for the race, I will do a long night ride tonight and hill climbs Thursday morning. I will also do hillclimbs on Monday as my last hard workout before the race.

I found some nan in Giant Eagle yesterday and I think that will be a good food to take to race day.
