Casino Trip #2

Another casino visit, and ive got rid of the negative bankroll sign. Was a pretty busy night with it being showday tomorow, and they were running some freeroll lottery. Sat at the same table as luke, we were pretty much oposite each other, a didnt clash at all. I played REALLY tight, tighter than i had planned but was pretty much card dead in between the few premium hands i picked up. Makes it easy to blog though cause i only played a few hands...

Hand 1: 1 hour into play, just rebought $20 to top up.

Pre: Q8
Limped to me on button by 4 ppl, i call just hoping to hit a big hand, 2pair or trips. take a flop 5or6 handed.
Flop: 358 two diamonds
first in stabs $10, called by two people, guy next to me motions like he is guna raise and then just calls. He is a donk so im putting him on a flush, or an 8 where my kicker would most likely be good, the original stabber (luke) would of limped utg so if he has an 8 it would be from a 98 78 T8 type hand which i am way ahead of.
I raise it to $35, for value and to pick up all of the dead money. folded to dude beside me, he knows im tight but he shoves. I knew he had a flush and made the easy call. It held up! Stack to $200

Hand 2:
Pre: AA
I dont even remember how this one went down atm, but I added around $150 to my stack

Hand 3:
Pre: QQ
Limped to me on button and i raise to $15, 2 callers, limper and bb.
Flop: KJx 2spades
I c-bet in position, alot of worse hands will call and i can see where im at.
Turn: blank KJxx
he checks and i check behind, i dont think anything worse than a K calls now, he was kinda solid player, not spewy.
River: check check, add ~$80 to my stack

Hand 4:
Pre: AA
$16 raise utg by an agressive guy, his agresive friend calls, folded to me in cutoff and i raise to $50. I am deep, and want them to call and play a huge pot with my AA, where we will be commited by the flop. BB from earlier calls my $50 and the both call. (pot $220)
Flop: KTx two hearts, i c-bet like $80, that would leave the biggest stack with $150. BB calls quick other two fold. He must have a stong K in my eyes, AK most likely to call that pre raise.
Turn: blank
I put him all in, $163 to be exact, he tank calls w KQ. Just shows how the players at the casino want any reason to call. He said after the QQ hand where i checked, this bet looked bluffy! I thought my hand was pretty face up but I was poised for a huge pot.
River: KING
New biggest pot of my life and i take a huge beat again. $500 shipped to the spew monkey.

Hand 5:
Pre: AK
raised utg to $15 and i call on the button. both blinds call.
Flop: T83 two clubs
Checked to utg, he checks and i check behind.
Turn: T83K three clubs , i have A of clubs
Agressive bb bets out pot, 1 call , i call.
With the completed flush i dont want to raise after 4 ppl saw the flop, furthermore KT is a hand that they would play for sure.
River: blank
Agressive guy shoves $60. up to me and im not sure about this call. I watch him and get a good tell. He is shuffling his cards and kind of grabing them like he is real keen to show. This is a sure sign of a weak hand. So i call with my AK and he shows K7. adds $100 to stack

Hand 6:
Pre: J9
limped to me on button, limp and its 7 people to flop
Flop: 48T raindbow
agressive guy stabs early, 2 callers and i just call. Some of these players will call with anything so i dont want to semi bluff in this spot, i have position for when straight hits i can get max value.
Turn: 48T4
checked to me and i check behind now, if someone had bet i would have folded with the paired board.
River: 48T4Q
Hit the straight, agressive guy bets out $15, a caller from fish beside me. i Raise to $40 and the fish calls. He doesnt show.

I finish the night up $255. Luke got off to a bad start, but finished up huge. We were the two big winners at the table and some other lady who was crap but hit some flops. Luke went for a all in squeeze and a all in draw hand early on which both backfired, and his AA got cracked by the same guy as me. But he hit some hands later on and chipped up well, helped by his slightly crazy image im sure. I played so incredibly tight i dont know how i got paid off every hand, but it just shows how bad these players are. I just wish i had won that huge pot, coulda bought something sweet with that $500. Anyway im just happy to erase the negative bankroll, and had a good night.

Tilt: $950
Stars: $220
Casino: $55

  2. Hey, pretty awesome win you picked up there! Congrats on getting off the negative bankroll. Which casino do you plan on hitting up next? Ever tried a casino in northern California? It’s not known for its casinos yet, but it very soon will be. The casino business is starting to grow in CA. Maybe Lady Luck will pay you a visit in one of the casinos there and give you a better win!
