8/21: Capitol Casino - 4/8 Kill

4/8 Kill: TSP - 4.5hr. TP: +$260

Dam, Cap was jumping tonight. Lots of money in the room. When I rolled up, I noticed that they now spread a 5/10 blind NL game with a $1k max buy-in. It produced some sik, sik, action. I witnessed some $2500+ pots, truly shovetastic. They also had the 15/30 going not as the main game though.

Just as the Superstar and I were chatting earlier in the week regarding table manners and etiquette, i.e. me getting angry at players at the table; the exact thing that he mentioned happened.

Long story short:

Flopped a set of 2's in a 6 way pot, turned a boat, and then had a guy hit a higher boat on the river w/ 77, std.

Then 2 hands later (not really sure but it doesn't matter):

5 way, 3 bets preflop w/ KK on all unders board: J926, villain 2-outs with QQ on the river, and that sent any profit that I had (+120ish) at that point to even.

Until this hand comes up (God-Mode...For 1 hand at least)

Hero is UTG w/ K:d:K:h:

Hero raises, UTG+1 3-bets, all call to button who caps, blinds folds, Hero calls.

7-way capped preflop, sweet:

Flop: K:s: 6:h: 5:s:

6-way capped on the flop, to the turn.

Turn: 6:s: (BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!)

Best card in the deck.

Hero leads, UTG+1 Raises, 2 other call, I 3-bet, but apparently the dealer didn't hear me indicate raise and wanted me to take my chips back for "acting before another player's hand hit the muck." But fuck it his cards were over the line anyway. So I just called.

4 handed to the river,

River: J:s:

Even better for me. Now I know that the Q:s: and the A:s: are looking me up.

Hero bets, called by UTG, and someone in mid-position.

I show Kings for and rake in a monster, I 2-outered the guy (UTG+1, who rivered my 2's full hand) w/ A:d:A:s:. FWIW, the other caller had Q:d:Q:s:

Final tally: 14BB's preflop, 12BB's on the flop, 8BB's to the river, and 3BB's on the river = 37BB's, sweet! I <3 live poker!

And then of course, God-mode went off, and I ran normal and picked up some smallish pots, the left for the night.

Thoughts?

Might make it down to Cap again before we take off for Kings Canyon tomorrow, but we'll see.

GL to the Superdonk, and Superstar tomorrow and the upcoming weekend.

-Cheers
