Steeler Josh meets the Poison

After a 2 hour drive home on a Friday night....I rush to the computer to check if Josh is on and ready for our battle. Shortly after I was on, Jordan helped to hook us up and get the battle started.

We were both anxious to see the outcome. It was our first meeting ever. So we didn't know much about each other. I did do some homework reading a few of his recent postings.

It was definitely FATE..as Josh stated ..."Looks like fate brought us together in round 1. Should be a fun time regardless of the outcome!" But Josh was not having the fun...he actually made that comment during our second match..and I replied that our first meeting should have been more sweet. After 61 hands we end the match like this:

steelerjosh is at seat 0 with 745.
yosoyveneno is at seat 1 with 2255.

teelerjosh posts the small blind of 15.
yosoyveneno posts the big blind of 30.
