The Greatest Tournament Central Arlington Has Ever Seen Is Back

Tonight begins a mania that will go on for weeks and give ten individuals so much unneeded stress, Clint may take up smoking again because of it.
That's right. The Tournament of Champions is back, with a vengence. There are more players, a different point system and antes added into the blind structure. It's going to be great!
From the original TOC, Chad will be returning as champion and having a lot to defend. James, Clint M., Brent and I are also coming back hoping to finish better than last time. Sadly, Danny and Hector will not be in attendance.
Our newbies to the group are no amatuers though. Mike Steed, Nick Small, Josh Bishop, Justin Hammond and Cody Ragsdale will be joining us in the festivities. I don't know how they feel about the traditional drinking of the blood from the sacrificial lamb as penance to the poker God, but I'm sure they won't have a problem with the ravaging of the tournament virgin.
Everyone is hoping to start out with a win tonight, but there can be only one Highlander! Tension is high and I have a feeling no one is thinking about their job today or their newborn Indian baby. Today is devoted to one thing and one thing only...the TOC.
