I took my 1.75 and turned it into 2.39 which is a .64 cent profit playing.5-.10 limit on b-dog. I played tight aggressive and it paid off. I will build this stack by playing beginner sngs on b-dog til I can venture off into other areas of the poker world. I followed that up by finishing 2nd in a 2.20 beginner sng on b-dog. I should have won. My opponent pushed and claimed he wanted a flipament. I believed him and I was right. He had 5-8 and I had a6. He flopped an 8. That crippled me and he went on to win. I played perfect for the most part. I will win more often than not. roll up to 5.19 now. MOVIN ON UP!

December 16, 2007, 5PM: Played 3 hours, Lost $220.00 at Lucky Derby
$5 No-Limit Texas Hold'em
This is a $300 max buy in game now. Bought in for the max and doubled up early w/ a lucky flop on the blind, against a guy with over $1g the whole game. He was playing a lot of hands, betting a lot, and winning most pots by showing down the winner. I picked up 99 from the small blind and over riased($30), got lots of callers. Flop was 345 and I overbet($120) the pot. He was the only caller. At this point I put him on a pocket pair under my 9's, meaning he had a set or a draw. The turn was a 7, and I figured the pot was big enough, so I checked. he bet $50 and I went into the tank. I should have layed the hand down right here. Any underpair he has either hit a set or a stright, other than 8's, and he was way under betting for the size of the pot, and the size of his normal bets, he really wanted me to call. Even though I put him on an underpair i called anyways, a bad call because I didn't want to give up on a big pot for a small bet. The river brought an A, a card that could have hit him if he was bluffing with air. he bet $100 and I called again. He showed 6 8 off suit for the nuts and took it down. I could hardly believe he called me with that as the second caller preflop, but my read was in the right neighborhood, and I should have saved myself $150.
Against the same guy I made another bad call. I had Q 4 on the button, limped in. Flop was QJ9. Check to me and I bet about the size of the pot, same guy is the only caller. Turn brings my 4, and I bet again. he moves in almst instantly, and I call almost instantly. If I had thought about it I should have put him on a better 2 pair or the K 10 he turned over. As it was I was just really excited that I hit a had pretty strong and I was getting a lot of action from this guy. I put him on a naked 10 or K on the flop, and didn't re-asses my read before shoving my last $220 in. I should have thought it through and layed it down.
After all that I rebought $100 and doubled through the same guy w/ QQ, then got up and left.

$20 Buy-In No-Limit Texas Hold'em Tournament (17th out of 35 Players)
ran up against one of the luckiest bastards i've seen in a while. early on he won a big pot with a straight after calling a raise with 69suited. against me he called my 1200 raise. i had ak suited flop comes 973 i check he bets and i raise. he calls. we check the turn and i bet the river although i guess not high enough. he says there's too much in the pot so he calls with a 7. he puts me out when the blinds are 500 1000 and we're still at two tables. he calls the bb and i go in for 4000 with ace nine. he calls as do two others. flop comes a94. he goes all in forcing the others to fold. he turns over a4. he catches a four on the turn to knock me out.

December 11, 2007, 12PM: Played 4 hours at Grand Sierra Resort Reno
$5 No-Limit Texas Hold'em
Wow this was a juicy action game and I was quite happy to be in it. Doubled up right away when I offered to chop with the big blind and he told me that "I don't chop I play poker". I have pocket Q's and still offered. So this is a 3-5 NL game. I said ok I raise to 50 he goes ok lets see a flop. Comes Q high and I make a full house. He doubles me up after calling me down with a pair of 3's. I knew then it would be good but it might be a roller coaster. I actually give most of this back over the next couple of hours then get involved with a bit hand where I flop middle set and a guy tries to run me over with 4 5 off. He bets I raise. he checks I bet he calls on the river he shoves all in. AUTOCALL. good session
