Steve's Ramblings

Thursday Night Poker

After my brisk 4 mile walk tonight I sat down at ye 'ol computer to play a bit of poker. Mookie is having his Big O online tourney and I have my Limit Challange to attend to.

Cash: Currently playing 25c/50c and am up $6.10.

Tourney: 9:01 - Seven to start. Pays three spots. This should be a wild and crazy event. 9:05 - Just lost a outside straight draw to Weezy. It didn't get there. 9:07 - lost a chuck to Texicans when my AJo flopped a JQx and a K on the turn. Grrrr. 9:10 - redemption! Got Texicans to lay down when I hit my TP on the river with KJo 9:13 - left the cash game up $5.50, very hard to two table Limit and NL 9:17 - Texicans just turned a fullhouse As full of 4s to aimikes25's flopped wheel. All the money was in on the flop. ouch. 9:18 - aimike shows true tilt when he bluffs all in with 25c, no callers 9:20 - back over starting chips when I check the BB and flop 2 pair. Also rivered the FH 9:21 - Mike doubles up with 24o against A8. Damn. 9:24 - Mike more than doubles up with KQ against QJ, new chip leader 9:27 - Jim is out when K7 flops top pair but Henry's 35 flops the 7 high staight 9:29 - Henry drops the Hammer. No one calls. 9:31 - I take out carol when my AA runs into A9d and she hits TPTK. They hold. 9:33 - Joel doubles up off Henry when he turns two pair against Henry's paired Ace 9:36 - I'm out. I make it 250 (blinds are 25/50). Henry makes it 750. I'm all in for 1700 or so. He calls with KK. I have 66. Ouch. Flop: 6QQ. Wow. Blank. K on the River and I am done.

Back on the Cash game. This concludes my live blogging. Not so hard when you only last 30 or so minutes.
