Good Job

[Boobie Lover]

You all know about the KK hand. I had a real crap image at the beginning since I was opening a bunch. Then, people started to play back at me, and I would finally fold A9 or 66 or something equivalent. So, after about 1/2 an hour after getting a 75k advance to the stack, I was back to where I started and decreasing.

Then, Ted Lawson (I think, he looked a lot like that PLO donk that won a WSOP bracelet) opens in the hijack+1 and I 3bet AQo in the SB to 65k leaving myself 70kish behind. He thinks for a couple of minutes, and then tables AJo. I guess I'm playing way too tight if AJ thinks that long before hitting the muck.

1/2 an hour later, Some black guy from Denver limps UTG (I think limping is pretty much always a mistake with blinds this high in a tourney) and I iso raise with A7o. He calls. Flop comes 778 with two hearts. He checks, I cbet, he check/raises an amount that commits me. I push and he call with 44. I hold up.

Finally, the hand that busted me. I raise with 68 SOOTED in the hijack. The chipleader of the whole tourney with about 600k at that point calls in the CO and everyone else folds. Flop is JT8 with two spades. I cbet 3/4 pot, he calls. Turn is a 6 (non spade). I check, he bets 60k, I push for about 180k. He instacalsl. He has JJ. Drawing dead never felt so bad.

14k is an ok payday for a vacation I suppose.

I just went down to the poker room to kill an hour and a half or so. The waiting list for the 5/10 NL game was like 25 deep, so I sat at the 1/2 table, which had open seating. The 10 seat was open, and I know the dealer from home, so I sat down so we could chat. He's going to be taking a job in Turks soon...

A little while after I started, Wes showed up and sat down too. We are such ballers. He stacked a guy with a well played AA vs QQ (all in on the turn), but then gave it back to him later in a coinflip (AK vs the guy's 88 - the 88 called Wes' big preflop reraise, btw). I basically sat there and folded for an hour and a half, but still managed to win one buy in.

Almost time for the farewell cocktail party/dinner and then home tomorrow.

Compared to what i am doing poker wise right now - you should DEFINITELY turn that frown upside down
