Quote of the week:

Be not the slave of your own past. Plunge into the sublime seas, dive deep and swim far, so you shall come back with self-respect, with new power, with an advanced experience that shall explain and overlook the old" - Ralph Waldo Emerson

Sunday Feb. 17, 08

Well, I had little time to play this past weekend. My little one was sick all weekend long but I did played in a $10 game on Poker Academy. I took that down from $40 bucks. It was just good that I beat my poker teacher, Nick B. LOL

I really have nothing to talk about for Sunday. I didn't do much besides play bad cards. I started with $140 at the 1-3 table and I couldn't see any cards. If I raise, I didn't follow it up with a c-bet and just let my opponent catch up. However I still walked away with $40 ahead. I don't know how but I did. I guess my opponents were horrible like me and we couldn't take each other money. F – won $40

Okay the fun part………..

Monday Feb. 18, 08,

I went back to the Casino around 9am and see if I can do better. Once again I sat down with only $140. I started out kind of slow and just playing from position. I finally pick up KK in the cutoff and raise $18 and got 2 callers. The flop was low cards and I took the pot down.

Enough of the bull, I'm getting right to the point cause I'm excited to write it. I looked down at 99's and first to act. I just called the $3 bucks. The villain next to me made it $30 and 2 other callers in front of me. I said there's a lot of dough out there and maybe if I flop a 9 this could get ugly. I had about $450 or so in front of me. It was hard for me to call but I did. Now, the Flop came out J 9 9. Do I see 99 on the flop? Are my eyes playing tricks on me? Did I died and went to heaven? I'm first to act, of course I check and the villain1 beside me bet $80 and we got another villain2 calls. I was thinking this couldn't be real. They are betting in me and this just can't be real. So, I smooth call the $80 and that was it. The Turn A, so I check it again and the villain1 goes all in for about $380 or so. Then villain2 calls the all in for about $315 and I called so fast I thought I pull a muscle in my arm. Villain1 flips over JJs and Villain2 throw down pocket rockets AA! One flop the boat and the other turn the boat! LOL I never saw this in live game but plenty of times online. So, after the smoke cleared the pot was about $1355.I played pretty good most of the day. A ( won $1215 )
