Session No. 24 Cache Creek (12/27)

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.
