May 4, 2008, 12PM: Played 1 hour, 15 minutes, Made $54.50 at OPL INVITATIONAL
$5 Buy-In No-Limit Texas Hold'em Tournament (1st out of 11 Players)

The new champ.....lol.
 
It was a lot of fun playing against all the OPL people, and some good poker friends.  I was a few hands late, computer problems.
 
Just sat back and relaxed till I got in a heads up situation with pocket 7s.  I flopped a set after making the standard raise and slow played.  Luckily, the turn paired the board and hit my opp. middle pair to give him trips.  So, doubled up there.
 
Later on, DeDobber was getting a bit too agro with his AX, and I caught him when I had AQ. 
 
Then......the best hand of the day! Jesse is short stacked, bout 2400 I guess, I have almost 8k.  I limp with my favorite hand, and he shoves except for one chip.  I flop an open ender against his AA, and spike it on the turn.  Sweet victory! I am sure Jesse would have chosen any other situation but that to lose to me.  But, had to get that ten dollar bounty.
 
Got heads up and battled for a little while, where I finally crippled her with 78 suited, flopping a pair and flush draw.  She turned the straight, and I turned the flush.
 
And the rest as they say is history.  Lots of fun, can't wait to play it again, win or lose. 
 
Thanks for the good times y'all!

May 4, 2008, 7AM: Played 15 minutes, Broke Even at Pinball Casino
Free-Roll No-Limit Texas Hold'em Tournament (7th out of 9 Players)

Top three got a $26 dollar token.  Had the guy trapped with a flop of QXX, he had QJ, I had KK.  Made him commit his chips, and then spikes the quenn on the turn.  Booo.  These tournaments are pretty easy though.  When I get more points, I will try them again as they don't really cost anything, but maybe a tshirt or a deck of cards...lol!

May 4, 2008, 7AM: Played 35 minutes, Broke Even at Pinball Casino
Free-Roll No-Limit Texas Hold'em Tournament (2nd out of 9 Players)

Winner got a $26 dollar token.  Easy to get to final three, then agro boy started pushing hard.  Was ahead but to no avail.

May 2, 2008, 2AM: Played 3 hours, Made $355.00 at Big Daddy's
$3/6 Texas Hold'em

Recruited a few players from the bar and KGB to go play in a crazy game...so the rumor was.  The rumor was true, and we filled up the 5 handed game with probably 2500 on the table, yes, thats right....2500 five handed 3-6 game.  One guy had almost a thousand in front of him, and proceeded to lose all of it, plus two hundred more. 
 
This was a game that was capped pre, every hand and every suckout imaginable.  U won the first pot with k8, making two pair and it holding up.  Of course, by the time I got cozy, I was getting people to play in the dark, till at least the flop, and then playing from then on out.  57 was golden for me twice.  My buddy Dave would be proud, as he has dubbed that hand, "Philipino Big Slick" from his many days of playing cards.  He is over 70 years old, but still has the spunk of a college boy.  So, I did him proud, and moved up the ranks to Secretary of the PBS club....lol!
 
Other than that...there were just big swings and huge pots.  Good win for me, after lacking some confidence, even though this type of game does not warrent good poker playing.  Help pay for some car repairs though...much needed!

April 26, 2008, 7PM: Played 1 hour, Lost $110.00 at Big Daddy's
$100 Buy-In No-Limit Texas Hold'em Tournament (17th out of 29 Players)

This was a private tournament held by one of our guests, and was invitation only.  Everyone had a bointy on there head for 25 bucks a piece.
 
I started off playing very well, and just lingering around.  We combined tables, where one of the favorite assholes was sitting at our table.  Of course the dealer was nudging me to bust him...which would have been nice all things considered.  But, I made a horrible misread when he min raise UTG, I go over the top for 3.5 times that bet, and he moves all in.  I forgot who I was playing against, and made a horrible call with tens.  He had KK which I put him on, but could not believe it.  Even if he had AK, the last thing I want to do is get in a race at that point in the tournament.  So, I busted out.  The good thing, is even with al my chips, he did not place and the dealers still did ok on tokes.
 
I am really not playing well lately.  Not running the best either, but I usually can overcome that with solid A game play.  So, small break time for me to get my head on straight, plus the money situation isnt that good at the moment.

$4/8 Texas Hold'em

It was a multiple person decision to go play tonight.  A few drinking buddies got there before KGB and Ishowed up and already busted.  So, it was short handed when we got there. There was birthday boy with an attitude in the game, and of course I played some mind games with him and got him tilting quickly.  So I was up right away after taking his chips.  I tried to stay out of KGB's way, but he got caught up in a few hand where I turned the nuts or rivered them with legit draws.  I capitalize on the drunk donks at the table while I sipped on my brewsky, and made some decent money in a quick amount of time.  This might be the norm for me soon, as I am going back to nights for a bit to help out the cause.
