After eating I headed over to the poker room. With the 25k wpt event going on, it was busy. I tried to get in a couple of good games (50-100 plo and a 200-400 mixed game but they were full. I was 2nd on the list for a 25-50 game that had this guy I have played with before. He is about 30 and a good looking kid. Not sure what he does but he has a lot of money. I won about 20k off him the only time we played. He lost it while debating with orel hershier who was a better high school baseball player , him or orel. Yes you read that right. Last night he lost about 80k but I couldn't get in the game. After about 2 hours of 10-20 nlh I went to bed up 600.00. Woohoo!!
This morning I started in the spa with a steem. Then to play a little before I head to the venetian for a 500.00 deep stack tournament. Actually I didn't play many hands during the 2 hours I played but I left the table a 8k winner. The big hand was
I had 10 c -8 c.
There was a preflop raise of 200.00 and 4 callers.
The flop came 8-10-4
Seat 1 bets seat 3 moves all in for 3k. I call and seat 1 calls!
Even with 2 pair I know I am not a big favorite because at least 1 guy has an over pair and no telling what the other has.
Sure enough, seat one has a-a and seat 3 turns over j-9 for an opened end staright.
The river is a 7 and the 3 seat cheers. But after the river is an 8 , I won the pot.
I am now down at the venetian working on my tournament play. I haven't been doing that well in tournaments and with the world series coming up I need to get better !
3 plays tonight in the nba playoffs and we are really hot. Get signed up today and have a good week.
