4/8-Kill: TP = -$97 TSP = 5 Hrs
Ran pretty horrible (true statement)
I played pretty terrible in the first half of the session as well, try to push people around and was just looking like a maniac. It was bad. I think all and all, I learned a bunch for this session more than I have in a real long time, though:
1.I need to talk more at the table.
2.I just need to be a lot more friendly and cheerful by saying some goofy shit while
playing.
3.“Win with grace, lose with style.”
I won’t talk about most of the hands where guys just straight out-flopped me but I can say that I did get 2-outered and 1-outered tonight. Sick
So in my 3rd hand of the night, right when the Superstar and I arrived, I get 99 UTG. Here is the HH:
Hero raises, called by the button and SB, and BB.
Flop: Q96 (2 hearts) Good flop, I think.
SB checks, BB donk bets, Hero raises, button calls, SB folds, BB 3 bets, Hero Caps, and button calls 2 more and is all in.
Turn: 4
BB donk bets again, Hero raises, BB calls. I know that I am way good here and I think this guy flopped 2 pair.
River: Q
Fuck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BB bets out, Hero just calls.
BB Donk shows Q6os for the rivered 2 outer. Hero shows 99 :-( Sucks to be me.
And the worst part was he didn’t even know that he had won the pot. He tells me, “Ooo, nice hand,” and I sheepishly reply, “Yeah, you won though.” Ouch, so in 3 minutes, I was already in a 60 hole. Great way to start off the night.
I then progressed to not run like the Santi and kill the table. Oh well, its all good.
Happy New Year!
See you all in 2008.

Session No. 23 Capitol Casino (12/23)
4/8 Kill TP = +$212 TSP = 3 Hrs
This was the most aggresive (preflop) session to date. On the advice of the Superstar, and in an effort to be less exploitable, I adapted the mantra of "If it is folded to me, I would raise to play, regardless of the cards." Obviously they had to be playable.
I had a huge range today, and I was running really well. Here are the hands that I raised when folded to:
T9s in MP, JTs, KTos in LP, and on a straight steal attempt QTs UTG+1, and my personal favorite 66 UTG.
Here is the HH for that hand:
Hero is UTG w/ 66:
Hero raises, called in 2 spots and the blinds call. (5 players)
Flop: 5 6 7 rainbow (Boom???)
Checked to hero who leads, folds back to the SB who Check raises, then the BB 3 bets, Hero caps.
Turn: A (2 hearts).
SB checks, BB leads, Hero raises, SB folds, BB 3 bets, Hero calls. Pretty sure I need to pair the board now and the aggro tard BB has a a straight but I didn't give him any credit at all. He was the same guy from the session that The Superdonk, Santi, and I were on the same table and he donked away $600+ in a little more that 2 hours.
Anyways, River: 7 (Boom!!!!!)
BB leads, Hero Raises, BB 3 bets, Hero Caps, BB calls.
Hero shows Sixes Full of Sevens, and BB shows 34 of hearts for the flopped straight.
:-) I run goooooooooooot!!!!
That was a huge pot.
The table was really loose and I was able to limp behind in LP w/ the gap connectors, 57s-68s, and the T7s it I made some goofy two pairs, and flushes.
See you at the Creek on Thursday.
-Merry Christmas!!!!!

Session No. 22 Capitol Casino (12/22)
4/8 Kill TP = +$112 TSP = 4 Hrs
I ran decent, but also missed some huge combo draws and whiffed and aggro/blinded myself down from up $250 to up $110. Can't Complain.
I told myself that I was going to work on my agression today, and I didn't I can recall 3 spots where it was folded to my in MP and LP and I raised it up w/ QJos, 87s OTB, and 55 in the HJ. Gotta do it to be less exploitable.
Here is a huge hand:
Hero is somewhere in MP w/ KQ of spades.
Kill Pot 8/16 limped in 3 spots, Hero raises to $16. Folds to BB who calls, and limpers call.
Flop: A T 6 ( T and 6 of spades, I am praying someone has an ace and will Creck raise because this was a live table, but that didn't happen )
Checked to me, I fire called in 3 spots.
Turn: J of clubs, BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!!!
Checked to me, I fire out $16 again, folds back to some guy in MP who check raises. Can you say snap double-fist??? I 3-bet and he just calls.
Cue Tom Petty - And I'm free, free rollin'....
River: 2 of spades.
Checked to me, I fire $16 again, and other guy just calls, I show the 2nd flush, He flopped a set of tens. Man, that would have been interesting to see how much more we could have got in on the flop had he check-raised me.
That was a nice $200+ pot.
Not too much more to talk about, next week the Star, Donk, and the Nit will probably be back up at the creek.
-Good nite now.

Session No. 21 Cache Creek (12/20)
4/8 Kill TP = -$39 TSP = 7.5 Hrs
Ugggggg.............. (The night of playing AK from the SB 7 times)
Dam this was a atrociously slow night for me. The Superdonk and I rolled in to the Creek about 6:30 and sat down at 1 of the 2 4/8 Kill tables that they had running instead of eating :(
The night started off pretty dismally, and I was running cold, BRRRRRRRRRR. I think I won 2 small pots that sufficed to buy my blinds for about the first hour and a half. The SD was running alright and was taking down some pots, and got Aces Cracked to put him up a bit in the first 2 hours. After running cold for a while and waiting for the Superstar to bust in the CP-Forum Olympics PLO H/L tourney (gg 3rd btw), I took a table change and won a small pot against my ex-neighbor where I turned 2 pair, and was behind hugely Preflop and on the flop but no one let me know, (QJos behind to KQs until turn).
And then the next orbit I get AK of spades UTG and, I felt a little lost in this hand, there was a laggy guy in the big blind who I had seen play every hand but 2 in 2+ orbits so I thought that he was extremely loose. Can you say blind sided?
Here is the HH:
Hero has AK of spades UTG and raises.
Folded to button who calls, SB folds, BB 3-bets, Hero Caps, button folds.
Flop: T 8 7 rainbow.
BB leads out, Hero takes on off to re-evaluate on turn. Here is where my play went wrong:
Turn: K
BB leads out again, Hero flat calls, whoops mistake. After discussion with the Superstar, I should have raise/folded to a 3 bet on the turn. So I just called anyway.
River: 7
I really thought that he had Aces or queens here. So, he led out again, Hero calls w/ Kings up, and the BB shows 88 for the flopped set, and rivered boat. Wasn't expecting the 3-bet to be from 88. In retrospect, that is a pretty good play for pot control and lead aggression.
After a few other losing hands and whiffing some overs and draws, I was down close to $160 or so, and I rebought. Then the Santi showed up, and I moved back to the other table w/ the SD to my right and Nik over 2 seats to my left.
Nik was on fire with some great lines throughout the night, as is usual for him, the table talk master.
"I guess I'll cap it." With KK in the SB after the Superdonk 3 bets from LP, and of course he flops a set of Kings, gg.
"This is a Phan loves me call." And she does love him... More than the SD (jack pot smack, $1700 dollars for the SD to throw a chair at the Santi. Oh but wait that $1700 didn't happen.)
"Are you sure you want to do that? I have some back door draws." And in true Santi fashion, he goes runner-runner flush. Nice.
So I found myself able to pick up some decent sized pots have AK, AQ, AJ and other random assortments hold, save for my 2 sets. 1 that I flopped and some guy just calls w/ a gutty and rivers it, uggh. I turned another one against the Superdonk but is doesn't hold.
Hero has TT utg, and raises, called in 2 spots or whatever, SB calls as does the SD.
Flop: K 9 8 (2 spades)
Checked to me I fire it, called in 1 spot and then the SD check raises, I call as does the guy in the hand.
Turn: Offsuit T, (boom????)
SD leads out, Hero raises, other guy folds, SD calls. All right I know his hand now,I just have to dodge a spades on the river and I scoop.
River: 2 of spades, RIGGGGED!!!!!
He leads, thanks to Superdonk for that. I call, he shows KJ of spades. Nothing that I could do, nice hand to SD.
From then on, the Santi started to free fall, as did the SD who was up about +$240 or so until, he got rapezorded in a kill pot w/ a set of threes vs. the nut straight, vs. the 2nd nut straight. PAIR THE BOARD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That was a $300+ pot.
After I flopped 2 pair twice, I found my self even at about 1 a.m. Then fell off a little bit and we all decided to make a run at the truck stop for some chicken fried steak and eggs, and a tuna melt. Yeah, I am life-nit I had the tuna melt. ("Dude don't be such a Vagine, I gotta get a red bull before class.")
Thanks to the SD, and the Superstar for chauffeuring to and from the Creek of Cache.
Hopefully next week some time we will return and hit up the Aces Cracked extravaganza for about 6 hours.

Session No. 20 Cache Creek (12/13)
4/8 Kill TP = +300 TSP = 5 Hrs
Made the 4/8 Superstar and I ventured up to the Creek and were seated at an almost broken 4/8 Kill Table. We played 5 handed for about and hour or so, and Nik and I played pretty aggro just like 6-max online.
The Persian man, Dominic, who was in seat 6 and was feeling like he was in the mood to donate, and got pissed when I didn't show at his request. I guess I shouldn't pissed off the fish and just showed him. Hopefully I will be able to incorporate the upcoming concepts from the "Don't tap the Glass: How to keep the fish at the table," by the Santi.
Anyways, I have to say that I ran pretty well and the opposite side of the table was donating all its chips to our side. Seats 1-4 were pretty solid the whole night with Chili (who made $2500 for rivering quad 3's), the 4/8 Superstar, myself, and Pat, a solid player who liked to gamble. All of us didn't clash to much through out the whole night. Chili got me once when he flopped a boat w/ JT and I just had TPTK. Oh well.
There was a guy that just kept paying off, and paying off, and paying off. Jason, who tried to bluff waaaaaay to much on pretty much every hand. It was great, I probably made about $60 solely off of him.
Big hands of the night:
QQ flopped set turned boat. Called down in 2 spots
AK in Kill Pot
K-rag OS - Rivered 2nd nut flush
Q-rag OS - ""
KK holds in big pot
Another had that I can't mention, that I will never play like that again. The Superstar know what hand this is.
I took down many many small pots w/ just a cbet and aggression.
The only hand that I will post a HH about is a TT hand solely from the reason that I felt a huge improvement in my game.
Hero in Hi-Jack w/ TT
Limped in 1 spot, folded to Hero who raises
Called by Button, blinds, and limper.
Flop: A 9 4 rainbow.
Checked to me, I fire called in 2 spots
Turn: A puts 2 flush out
Checked to me I fire again. Called only by button. At this point, I felt that I was good here and he didn't have the Ace, this is about one of the safest cards that I felt could come off at this point, or obviously another ten.
River: 2
So, I figured just to check call to, on the off chance that he had the Ace it would only be $8 instead of $16.
This is just a point that I would have gave up and fold to a bet on the turn. But times have changed.
Thanks to the Superstar for coming out. Most likely there will be another trip up to the Creek next week some time.

Session No. 19 Capitol Casino Tues (12/11)
Capitol Casino: 4/8 Kill TP = +170 TSP = 5 Hrs
Well this was a pretty fun night I think for everyone at the table, we had the 4/8 Superstar in seat 3, the 4/8 Superdonk in seat 4, and then yours truly, the 4/8 Supernit in seat 5. Oh and might I add, we had the 72 Prop Bet going the whole night, some fool did get it, I don't quite remember who it was. This night could have seen me up about $300, had I not ran a set into a flush, and AK w/ TPTK into QQ for a set, oh well that'll happen.
Thanks to the Superstar and the Superdonk who came out to Phó Bác for food.
My night started off pretty slow as I as placed in a straight 4/8 game with some capitol regulars, a man who resembled Hubie Brown, and of course some other guys who were your typical Capitol players. I think I ended up chopping only 1 hand with a straight in 3 orbits, and then I was moved to the Kill Table where all the fun started.
I found myself being able to change gears a little bit, I was getting super aggro (for me Santi), and I was open raising w/ A6s, raising limper w/ A5s, playing very loose from the SB and late position w/ your assortment of suited semi connected cards etc. Even pulled out a ten-high bluff on 2 people towards the end of the night to get my only kill of the session.
Man this was a fairly aggro-table, there were a couple people just willing to gamble and raise any two cards and then play them way to far. Gotta love that kinda stuff. My first hand of any was AQs over a weaker Ace and I took down the pot. Then after the Superstar, and the Superdonk were moved to my table, I had a fairly interesting hand:
Kill Pot 8/16
Hero has 66 OTB
Folded to Hero who open limps, meh. Probably a bad play in retrospect should have just popped it. Douche with the kill button in the big blind calls. Flop comes: 5 4 2 rainbow nice. He checks I bet, he calls. Turn 2, great card, he checks I make it 16, he calls. River J, uh good??? Then the douche leads out. Fuck there just went $48. I say this a terrible call, and of course call and ask him if he got there and he said no. Sweet, and I scoop the pot. NO HERO CALLS!!!!
An orbit or two after that, the older gambling man live 8's and then the cool Azn cat in seat 1 makes it 3 bets to go, and I look down at JJ, nice, so I do as taught, make it 4 to go, and I think that I am way ahead of anybody right now and pray for a jack to flop. So the flop comes K 8 5 rainbow, eek, checked to me and I fire and of course everyone calls, oh well. Turn 2 harmless, so I really didn't believe anyone to have the king at this point so I decided to double barrel it and i worked and they all folded, and I scoop the pot.
Ah, now this hand is just staight up 6-max online strategy. It was limped in 3 spots and the Superdonk limped on the button. I complete in the SB w/ K5 of spades. Flop comes 7 6 3 with two spades, and I lead out, apparently no one wanted any of that accept the Superdonk, he just called. This sent out that he has some sort of straight draw or TP. Had he raised, I would have thought for sure, flush draw. But I digress, Turn a red T, and I fire again, thinking that he will give up on his goofy draw or top pair now with the overcard. The Superdonk just calls again. Hmm, now I am lost, I really thought that he had K7 or something like that. River A of diamonds, now I now that I am good, I don't know why. I just went for my initial assumption of putting him on the straight draw that didn't get there. I fire again, and he folds. Of course, to rub it in, I show my busted flush and straight draws, he he he.
And for the last hand that I got sooooo, lucky on, we will just call it Rapezord!!!!
HH:
Hero has 43os in the BB.
Limped in 2 spots, then folded to Superdonk in the SB who completes and I check my option.
Flop: 6 5 2 rainbow. Ship it!!!!!
SD checks, I check, seat 8 bets out, 1 caller, SD calls, I call.
Turn: K of spades
SD leads out, I can't wait any more I raise it up, other limpers fold, and he calls
River: Q (no flush)
SD checks, I bet, he calls. He says, "Two pair." And just as fast as he said that, I said, "Straight." He goes what???? Big Blind Special, yup.
In reality I probably should have just smooth called the turn and raised the river two get the extra bets from the other limpers, but I thought that the king hitting on the turn and the SD leading out, they wouldn't call anyway.
Might come back a little later to talk about, how I somehow faded like a bajillion outs on the Santi when I had bottom two pair FTW!!!
-Late.

Turn 2 harmless, so I really didn't believe anyone to have the king at this point so I decided to double barrel it and i worked and they all folded, and I scoop the pot.
Ah, now this hand is just staight up 6-max online strategy. It was limped in 3 spots and the Superdonk limped on the button. I complete in the SB w/ K5 of spades. Flop comes 7 6 3 with two spades, and I lead out, apparently no one wanted any of that accept the Superdonk, he just called. This sent out that he has some sort of straight draw or TP. Had he raised, I would have thought for sure, flush draw. But I digress, Turn a red T, and I fire again, thinking that he will give up on his goofy draw or top pair now with the overcard. The Superdonk just calls again. Hmm, now I am lost, I really thought that he had K7 or something like that. River A of diamonds, now I now that I am good, I don't know why. I just went for my initial assumption of putting him on the straight draw that didn't get there. I fire again, and he folds. Of course, to rub it in, I show my busted flush and straight draws, he he he.
And for the last hand that I got sooooo, lucky on, we will just call it Rapezord!!!!
HH:
Hero has 43os in the BB.
Limped in 2 spots, then folded to Superdonk in the SB who completes and I check my option.
Flop: 6 5 2 rainbow. Ship it!!!!!
SD checks, I check, seat 8 bets out, 1 caller, SD calls, I call.
Turn: K of spades
SD leads out, I can't wait any more I raise it up, other limpers fold, and he calls
River: Q (no flush)
SD checks, I bet, he calls. He says, "Two pair." And just as fast as he said that, I said, "Straight." He goes what???? Big Blind Special, yup.
In reality I probably should have just smooth called the turn and raised the river two get the extra bets from the other limpers, but I thought that the king hitting on the turn and the SD leading out, they wouldn't call anyway.
Might come back a little later to talk about, how I somehow faded like a bajillion outs on the Santi when I had bottom two pair FTW!!!
