January 21, 2007, 2AM: Played 8 hours, Lost $38.00 at Oaks Club
$4/8 Omaha Hi-Lo

What a grind.  Got stuck 400 early.  Finally, after 7 hours I had enough.  I raised preflop every hand, deciding I was going broke or getting even.  Finally hit a monster hand and got even.  Played till bb and left.  Just happy to be even.

January 13, 2007, 2AM: Played 2 hours, Made $470.00 at California Grand
$3 No-Limit Texas Hold'em

Another good night.  Had a couple of donkeys in the game calling everything.  Was nice to have my hands stand up.  Think I'm finally getting a good imagine there.  Takes a while since I deal here too.  For some reason they think dealers don't know how to play and give them no credit.

January 12, 2007, 1AM: Played 4 hours, 30 minutes, Made $970.00 at California Grand
$3 No-Limit Texas Hold'em

What a session.  Not only was I playing really well, making good reads...I was making my hands and they were standing up.  The best thing is when you flop a little set...
 
had 22 in bb and no raise, 4 players.  Flop K82, checked around.  Turn A, I check and they go nuts.  All-in, All-in, All-in.  This biggest stack is 180 which I have covered.  Can only call.  The hands are AQ, AK, A8.  How much better could that be. 
 
Later, take down another big pot with 33.  Flop 632, turn 6 when guy pushes with 77.
 
Should have won about 700 more but was playing good poker...maybe a little to tight towards then end.  One hand have A10 on button with pre-raise to 20.  Seeing 4 callers I call.  Flop KJ9, checked around.  Turn 6, early positions bets 65 with 1 caller.  I fold, river Q.  K10 wins.
Other hand limp mid position with 66 with 8 callers and MB raises to 50.  I fold, 1 caller.  Flop 864.  1010 wins.  Talking with the guy next to me.  He says he had 44 and would have called if I had called.  He had around 300 in front of him which would have been in my stack. 
 
Oh well, why get greedy.  I'll take the almost 1K win.
