Last night we had our weekly game. I was card dead the whole first half of the game. I won 1 hand the first 2 hours. Even the hands I folded I would not have caught anything on the flop had I felt like playing 8 3 offsuit.
After break I came back to 4 bb's. I had just talked to one of the players outside before the break ended saying that I will come back to a mid pocket pair within the first 2 hands, go all in and get called and lose. It always happens when I am low stacked.
The first hand back was not quite a mid pocket pair. It was 66. I was early position and went all in. One of the other players hem hawed around and said he was going with his gut and called. Everybody else folded. He turned over 10 3 hearts. He hit a 3 on the flop and a 3 on the river to send me packing.
After the hand he said he was sorry, he made a horrible play. I told him it wasn't a horrible play. It was the best call I could have asked for with him only having 1 over. He went with his gut and it worked. I told him not to worry about it. I figured with my chips as amunition he would make it deep, just as I probably would have with his chips had I won. He ended up cashing in 3rd place.
On a good note, I have booked another trip out to Las Vegas. I will be bringing another newby out, so probably not a lot of poker this trip. He plays a bit so we may be sitting at some tables over the weekend. I booked it for Feb 21st - Feb 23rd. We get there early Sat morning and leave Monday afternoon. It will be a quick trip.
I wanted to have something to look forward to after a busy start to the year. We will be staying at the Riviera again. I really like the size of the rooms. Plus they let me use my comps for a room on the weekends. Play a little too much on the slots there I do. If only they had a poker room.
We've already booked tickets to EllisMania 10 Saturday night. I am not sure exactly what it is, but the guy I'm bringing said he listens to Jason Ellis on XM radio. They were having EllisMania 10 the same night we get to town. This could not be coincidence. I booked the tickets before I knew what it was about. From what I have heard random people do challenges on the radio to have a chance to go to this and fight. The last one had a musical chair fight, 4 man shock collar fight and some other crazy fights. It sounds like they put on one heck of a show. I'm excited to go see it and bring back some interesting stories to put on here.
You almost had me convinced to stay at the Riv for a few nights in December, but I stayed at Circus instead. The West Tower room was actually okay.
ReplyDeleteAnd ... 10-3? Going with your gut? Okay -- it was sooted, right? It just wasn't your night. lol
I have stayed at several casinos in Vegas. I like the hustle and bustle for a bit, but I also like to go back to the Riviera where it gets a little quieter. I haven't stayed at Circus yet. I'm sure it would be about the same.
ReplyDelete10-3 was sooted. He barely had more chips than me. I knew he likes calling all in's but I didn't know he would do it for most of his chip stack. I wanted that call. It just wasn't my night.
I never thought that I will be qualify for a loan that Officer Pedro and his loan company granted me which was very smooth and transparent in every conversation that we make through the loan process, I will once again thank him and his loan organization for a job well done by offering me a loan of 22 million Euro with the low rate of 2% annual return they are genuine and loan register company with simple terms and conditions.
