Every Saturday, four casinos in a 10 mile radius had poker tournaments..Pechanga at 10 am, Harrahs At Noon, Pauma at 4pm, Pala at 7pm, Harrahs, again, had the 8pm Bounty.

Depending on our tournament success that day, the big meal would either be the $45 Pala buffet or the $9 Pauma buffet.

That was 2-3 years ago..it seems like 20-30 years ago now, lol..
