Legends of Poker Events 2 & 3, $545 NLHE & $335r NLHE
Sorry it's been a while... ... but I wrote a long blog on the way here that disappeared into cyberspace and I went on blog tilt and decided I wasn't going to write about what I was writing about anymore.6:47 am in bed at the Commerce Casino. Let's work backwards:
Played shorthanded 100-200 LHE from 3:30 am to 5:30 am, made $1700, was never up until last twenty minutes. Sick hand here:
Aggressive button raises, I 3 bet 3 3 , weak-tight BTN caps, we both call.
Flop A 6 3 . i check, BB checks, BTN bets, I raise, BB 3 bets, BTN caps, both call.
Turn: 7 . I bet, BB raises, BTN 3 bets, I call (pair the board one damn time!), BB folds (told you weak-tight).
River 3 . Zing! I bet, he calls. $4400 pot.
Before that I went to dinner at C&O Trattoria (best Italian joint in LA), partied at the hermosa pier, and waded in the Pacific ocean.
Before that I played some 40-80 at the bike, winning $1760. I played an interesting hand where for the first time ever I felt that my articles could be used against me. My opponent of interest in this hand was a super nice gentleman who I had a great time sitting next to and is a reader of this blog. Big pot, i had nut straight on turn, and had him on the heart draw. Heart on river, I bet anyways, and thought for a moment, "Boy, I sure hope he hasn't read the Scare Card article." So, I asked him if he's read my articles before he had a chance to do anything and he said no. Phew. Othewise I would have been forced to call his raise!
Before that I went off in the rebuy tourney. Eight of em, good for $2735 down the tubes in a $300 tourney. I had such a great table and got it in so good almost every time, got snapped a bunch, missed 3 12+ out draws all-in, set cracked, top pair cracked, trips cracked, ace high cracked (yes, shoved with A high post and got called by K high)... got felted on last hand of rebuys, did the double/double (rebuy/add-on) for $1200, and never won another pot. I hate poker.
Friday was our first full day in town and Travis took 5th in the $500 event. Atta boy! I naturally blew my brains again in a disappointing fashion, tripleing up in the first level only to slowly dwindle into nothingness. From there I decided to make my first donation in five years to the cash games at the Bike and blew $3k.
So, stuck $2500ish after two days, planning on being here through next weekend.
Peace and good luck y'all and sorry for the crappy content.
