Long Break .... lol(updated)

Ya, so if you saw what a wrote a couple days ago, i'm on a break from the local live game .... that lasted like 3-4 days. Last night, i didn't feel super tired after work and decided that i would go try and deal for a little bit. I got there and the dealers still fealt like dealing and the game looked good. I felt i could take advantage. So i played a session.

I also been playing some online tournys and i finish by winning a 27+R to EPT: Monte Carlo satelite worth 800$. So that felt good. I now have my account on Stars at 1K. I think i'm goign to keep on playing the 10$ to 20$ tournys and see how that goes.

Here are a couple hands from my live session last night.

First hand i played was 9c 7c. I was in middle position and i limped in with a limper ahead of me. We ended up being 6 players in the hand. Flop came Jc 7h 3c. Blinds checked and the player next to me bets 20$, i make it 65$ to call to figure out where i'm at, plus i would take controle of the hand. Everyone folded to the better who calls. Turn came Jd. Now as it works out, i think that small raise on the flop gave me a free card on the turn. I thought he had a J so i checked behind him. I caught the Qc on the river. He bet out 55$ and i just called. He just showed a jack.
I picked up KcKs on the button after its raised to 15$ with 2 callers ahead. I know make it 65$ to go, and those 3 players call(one player was all in for 55$), blinds fold. Flop comes 8h 9c 10c. Its checked around to me, the pot is 220$ with 40$ sidepot. I bet 100$ (i have 300$ behind). I get one caller. This guy is probably a little on tilt, and he really likes to bluff alot. Turn came 3d. He checks to me, and i go to bet and he says, ''i'm not folding to any bet'', i gave him a draw, but i still checked and i knew that i would have to call a bet on the river to win the pot. River came perfect, Ac. He bets 250$. I start talking saying i didn't think he had a flush. The thing is that he could have J3 and be in that pot. I just didn't think he had it, and he starts talking, ''are you folding ?'' i said maybe. He then put his cards up the air as if he's ready to much his hand. I know this player pretty well, and i don't think he would do that if he wanted me to call. So i called and he didn'T even look at my hand and mucked. He was all amazed that i called with K's in that spot. I was happy. (i didn't mention, but the guy that was all in, also mucked his hand as soon as the player bet out 250$, so that was a bonus to know i didn't have to beat him)


I pick up 8h8d on the button and it was limped around. I called and ew ended up being 7 players in the hand. The pot is about 35$. The flop comes out Jh 10h 6c. Its checked around to the loose player beside me and he bets 20$, i called and there was 1 more caller. Pot is now about 100$. Turn is Qd. Its checked around to the player that bet 20$ and he starts thinking about betting. Right away, i'm pretty sure he's on a flush draw, but he could have hit the Q. He finally check, and i come out betting 80$ to find out if i was right. Other players fold and he thinks about it and calls. River is Qh. He thinks about it for a while and checks, and i check right away because i can't bluff a flush there if my read is right. Turns out my read was right, but a little wrong. He had Ah Kh for the Royal Flush. Needless to say, i didn't win that pot and probably save a little money when a heart came on the river.

UTG raises to 20$, first guy calls and i call with 10h 7h. The 4 other players also call, so 7 handed for 20$ so 140$ in the pot. Flop comes 10d 6h 3s. Checked around to me and i bet 100$. A player that i have a pretty good read on was getting ready to call and i could tell that he had a decent hand, but that he wasn'T too sure about it. He called and i got 1 more insta call from the loose player to my right. Turn came 5c. Now i check and the player that i have the read on, does the sameL thing, i can tell he's not too sure about his hand, and he bets 100$. Another insta call and now theres 640$ in the pot and i decide to call thinking that i have one of the beat and the other is on a draw. River is 10c. We all check, player that i said i had a read on had 9's and other player was on the straight draw. So i won that 740$ pot.


This one is going to be quick. Limped pot, QJ on the button, flop is Ad Kd 3s. Checked around, Turn 10c. Player bets 40$, one guy calls, I make it 140$ total, first guy folds, other goes all in for maybe 400$ total, (we didn'T count) i called and he had AK. Blank on the river. WIN



Here are a couple more hands,

I pick up 6s 5s on the SB and i limp in and BB raises to 20 total. Everyone calls making it 140$ in the pot. The flop comes out As Kh Qs. Its checked around the player to my right, he bets 35$, i call, and we get 1 more call. The turn comes 8d. I check, and everyone checks. River comes Ah. Theres 255$ so i decide to value bet it and see what happens. It looks like everyone was on a draw. I Bet 60$. First guy folds, guy on the button looks at me and says, ''what do you have ? fuck it, i'm not paying you off this time. '' He says, ''show me your ace or your boat'' So i showed him 6 high. Nice pot for playing the board

I pick up Super Joe, 5c 6c on the button this time and it was raised to 20$ total with 6 players. The flop comes out Kh 7s 3c. Its checked around. Turn comes 8s. Everyone checks again, so i bet out 80$. I get called by the player to my right. River comes 3h. He check to me, and i move towards betting again, and he mucks his hand. Looks like playing the board gave me a couple 250$ + pots. That help it be a winning night.


I guess thats all for now. I might post some more hands later, right now i can't think of any other interesting ones. I finish teh night +1500$.
