and I was working like a dog.

Last night we did the Seoul International Dart League end of season banquet/tournament. I left the house at 1330 and returned home at 0330.  I was as exhausted as I can ever recall being.  Along the way my team, “Team Walrus” as we called ourselves, went undefeated in the winner’s bracket, only to be beaten twice by a team coming up from the loser’s bracket.  They were hard fought matches, both going 5 legs, but in the end we had to settle for second place money.

The results

Not to make excuses, but I was dead on my feet.  I had the winning shot in both of the finals matches but couldn’t get it done.  So it was pretty frustrating letting my teammates down like that.  In a tournament of this nature it really comes down to an endurance contest and as much as I may be in denial about getting older, I was feeling my age last night.

Second place money was W175,000 for each player, so by my reckoning I made around W15,000 per hour for my efforts.  Hey, that’s better than my last job paid!
