So I made my way to the local Indian casino last night with a buddy for the 1st time this semester. I sit down at $1/$2 with $200. For the first hour or so I fold, win the occasional smal pot, but hover around $200 the whole time. Eventually, I decide to limp with the rest of the world with QJo on the button. Flop is KT5. Asian guy bets $12. I call along with 3 others. Turn is A, my money card. Same guy bets $28, one guy calls. I reraise to $75. The bettor shoves for like 40 more, everyone folds and I call. He has AK and I hold up.

Then the same guy rebuys for $100. 10 hands later he raises to $15 UTG and I have JJ and reraise to $45, everyone folds and he shoves for his remaining $50. I think about it for a while and call. He has 88 and I won again.

The next big hand was A:h:T:h: in the big blind. 6 limpers and I check. The flop comes A:c:4:h:7:h:. Small blind bets $7. I decide I want alot of people to come along so I only call. 3 other callers, including my buddy. Turn is the J:h:. The small blind bets $15, I just call, and so does my buddy. River is 2:d: and the SB checks. I bet $35 and my friend calls along with the SB. My friend has a lower flush and the SB mucked.

Now we get to the good part. I'm in the hijack, and the UTG+1 guy has been a maniac all night. Not to mention he is probably 6'3" 250 lbs of solid muscle. Betting at everything, but folds to aggression. He raises to $15, 1 caller before me, I have 6:c:8:c:, and try to squeeze. I reraise to $52. The UTG+1 calls, other guy folds. Flop A:c:A:h:5:d:. Maniac checks. I bet $80. He thinks, tells me he knows I don't have it, but mucks QQ face up. I tell him good read and show my hand, and give him a little smirk, and he goes NUTS. Starts cussing at me, tells me how I disrespect his raise, all sorts of shit. I just say calm down, it's just poker.

So about 30 minutes later, my buddy busts and wants to leave. So I ask the dealer for a rack. The maniac says "oh, so now you've had enough. take my money and now leave, you punkass college kid." I just laugh and tell him to have a good night.

All in all I cashed out $550 exactly, and then found a $1 bill on my way out of the casino to make my total profit from the night $351.:thumbsup:
