I got in 6 hours or so of action down at Cap. It was a pretty dull day though. I was just card dead as all hell, even worse that 3 sessions ago. But hey, that is life sometimes. Of the small percentage of hands that I did play, I couldn't hold at all.
There were no real hands to talk about.
So I guess I can just chalk this one up to experience and look to run better next time.
Overall for the day:
4/8: -$60 (.5 hr)
6/12: -$120 (6 hrs)
On a side note, I will be becoming a live grinder at least for a little while as it looks from the work stand point. Unemployment, and live poker, lets give that a shot.

Capitol Casino: 4/25 - 4/8 & 6/12 Kill
So I had a some time to play during the afternoon on Saturday before dinner, and rolled into Cap around 3pm. I was 3rd on the 4/8 Kill list and 7th on the 6/12 list ugg. As I reconized that the 6/12 game had Wilson, Tom, a spewey Azn guy, and some other random gamblers.
I ended up getting called for the 4/8 seat in about 10 minutes and took my place in the 7 seat next to an old soccer ref and a field of other random donks.
Both my 4/8 and later 6/12 tables didn't seem too tough at all, but I was pretty much card dead the entire session. I did see Aces once for a small win, AK for a semi nice pot after capping HU with a guy who had 99.
The only hand of note, went as follows:
Hero has the button and is deal AJ of clubs. It limped in 4 spots, and I raise, the blinds fold and UTG limp re-raises his last 4 chips, and we all call. Does anyone cap here?
Flop: J52 (2 of clubs)
Pretty sweet flop IMO. Checked to seat 4 who donks, 1 call in between and Hero raises, all call.
Turn: A of spades.
Checked to me again, I fire, all call. 4 to the river.
River A of diamonds. This turned out to be a sick, sick card.
Check to seat 4, who fires, 1 fold in between, and I raise all fold back to seat 4 who just calls.
I show AJ and rake in a monster. Turns out seat 4 flopped a set of deuces and I went runners FTW. I run gooooot!
After a while of waiting I got called for the 6/12 and sat in the 4 seat where I continued my card dead streak and didn't play a hand for 3 orbits or so outside my blinds.
I only ended up winning 1 pot before I took off in an interesting hand where I completed from the SB w/ Q4 of clubs after 4 people limped and the flop came T98 w/ the T9 of clubs. Got a bunch of bets in on the flop which was pretty std. but I really want to know is your opinion of my turn play. I will post this on CP & 67 to get some feedback.
But the short story is that I turn the flush w/ the J of clubs hitting the board. I ended up leading into the field. It would look weird to just check after playing the flop fast.
Does anyone check in the SB and hope that a Q fires the turn and go for the check raise?
Anyways, I do fire the turn and all 3 people call except the button. The river is kind of a scary card pairing the board w/ a T. I ended up nitting the river and just check calling in case some one rivered the boat.
But yeah, all in all after my session Wednesday night and Saturday afternoon, it was a pretty good week at Cap.
I finished the day:
4/8 Kill: +$130
6/12 Kill: +$70
Ain't no telling if Cache Creek will be happening this week it kinda depends on work. Otherwise, the 4/8 Superfriends, and I will be looking to put in a big session at Cache on Friday.

Capitol Casino: 4/22 - 4/8 & 6/12 Kill Wooot!
It was an interesting day down at Cap and people were in the mood to throw some chips around the felt.
I ended up having a 2 part session after a false alarm put a halt the 4/8 portion of my day and I had to take off for home. I had intentions of coming back if the 6/12 game was good, as confirmed by the 4/8 Superstar via TXT.
4/8: +90 3hrs
6/12: +140 2hrs
So I made some time to play last Wednesday after work and met The Santi down at Cap around 6 to find him already seated at 4/8 just putting along.
So, not too many hands of note besides the fact that there were 2 drunk off shift dealers that proceeded to try and spew chips to everyone. One female Azn dealer in particular, open raised alot and every time that she did I turned up with a monster. I had Aces twice, QQ once, AK once, and AQ once, all holding for the day.
I will only talk about 1 hand from my 4/8 session. I am in MP w/ two black Aces, its limped in 3 spots, I raise, folded to button who raises all in for 3 more and all call. The flop comes A68 all hearts, checked to me I fire all call. Turn is the J of spades, checked to me I bet all call. River is a diamond...the Ace of Diamonds. Checked to me I bet my quads, and get 1 caller. Turns out the button flopped a queen high flush and the caller flopped 2 pair w/ 68os. So that was a nice pot.
After I returned from what I will call an extended bathroom break, I returned intending to meet Santi for some food. However I ended up playing 6/12 instead as the game got real fishy w/ two players who were complete tards and like to call 3bets cold w/ Q5 and things of that nature so it was a great game.
I will just give a greater than less than because I have no patience right now.
AT > ?? HU pot
55 > 3 players when I didn't bet the flop & turn after the SB raise and it checked to me
AK < Q5 Maj called three bets cold and raised the flop after hitting his queen.
AJ < T7 in a Kill pot where I held off a straight draw.
99 > Ax (2x) I flopped a set, after opening UTG+1 and got three bets in on the flop, and bet it the whole way down.
That is all for now, I might make it out to Cap tomorrow late afternoon-ish. If there is no blog on Sunday, look for a blog next Thursday night after a hopefully lengthy Cache session which will include some Aces Cracked Action, Woooooot.

Capitol Casino: 4/10 - Running Awful and Card Dead, What a Pair!
Well it was a wonderful day in Sacramento today, birds singing, trees around the outside of the office reaking of dank twat, and charging only to overhead the entire weak gotta love it. Since the last blog I had to actually put my BR back in the bank for a time, didn't want to have random amount of cash lying around the house.
So I hit Wells Fargo after a bowl of Mongo w/ Santi, a Friday tradition <3 Mongo. And as a plus, the Superdonk made it out, woot.
But enough of this shit on to the awesomeness that is/was/will be live low limit hold'em.
So, the story begins in the 6/12 game with a huge amount of older tight players. Chop, chop, chop and steal. Not my kind of game. I only sat at the 6/12 for about hour when people started to leave, on a Friday nonetheless, wtf??? Didn't take one pot, and the table was going to break leaving me last on the waiting list. So, instead of waiting, I mozied on over to one of the 4/8 Kill games.
It is really evident that the economy is taking a dump when there is no list for a 4/8 Kill game at Capitol on a Friday night at 6pm.
Oh well, let the games begin.
I really won't tell you the hands that I won, AQ once in a HU pot, KK 2x both in kill pots and draw heavy boards. And that was really about it. And of less we forget the KQos top 2 pair hand, no big deal right.
So I was even-ish and I sat in what was a really profitable table if you could run good. And obv, by the title of the blog, I didn't and couldn't. But oh well, that is a part of limit hold'em.
As an overview of the table:
1 Seat: Hero
2 Seat: Donk old guy who looked like Schmee from Cpt. Hook, Doppelganger ftw.
3 Seat: Korean Donk who I joked a lot with the entire night.
4 Seat: Random Azn Donk
5 Seat: Horace, older man who couldn't hit a flush to save his life, he whiffed 6x that I saw.
6 Seat: Overweight old, white, Tight Passive player.
7 Seat: Random Azn Donktard
8 Seat: JPizzle esque in personality, White, NL player who ran god like, but couldn't play limit very well at all and dumped 5+ racks to the table.
9 Seat: A Bevy of random donks et. al.
Here are some awesome beats that I took, not really bad just frustrating as all hell. In before captain obvious blast.
Hand 1:
JsTs in the SB limped in 3 spots, I completed, BB checks. Flops comes: T52 (2 spades), Hero leads, called in 2 spots, button raises, I 3! Bet, and all call, Wtf? Am I good here probably not. Turn: 4 of Spades, Boom???? I lead, and get 1 fold, and the button raises, uggggg. I just call, probably should have 3!'d again but w/e, I really thought that I might be up against a better flush. Too nitty? River comes the T of Clubs, and I check call, with another caller in the middle.
Turns out Seat 8, the NL player had the Q7 of spades, and the other caller had flopped 2 pair w/ T5, so that didn't surprise me at all. Moving on.
Hero is dealt ATos UTG and I raise, called by HJ, Button old guy donk just terrible, SB and BB.
Flop comes: AT4 rainbow, great right?? You would think it goes two checks, I fire, called by HJ and BB. Turn brings a 3, BB checks, I fire again, HJ calls and the BB raises, fuck? Am I beat? I just call and the HJ folds, river is a 9, and the BB bets out and I call. He rolls over 52os for the dirty gutter ball!! Wooot gotta love it.
That hand really got me more that somewhat irritated, but he was a bad player and I didn't want to piss him off, I just rapped the table and said, "Nice hand."
So yeah, there was one more hand where I was in the BB w/ A3os and the flop comes 433 with 2 hearts and I fire the flop and turn and 5 people see the river which comes a J...of hearts and I lose to Q7 of hearts somewhere in mid-position. That was a great size pot 15BBs+ but hey, that is the swingy-swongy world of limit hold'em.
For the most part, the hands that I did play I played well, and didn't get too crazy, which can be expected from the Supernit. But, I just was card dead the entire night. KK 2x, TT 2x, 88 & 77 1x and AK 1x AQ and AJ 1x, other that that it was slim pickens (+1 for the Blazin' Saddles Ref) for the entire night. I think that qualifies as somewhat card dead.
I saw that Capitol took away the wheel spin and Aces Beat, so there is no real incentive to play there when Cache is just 45 minutes away during the week and they still run Aces Cracked.
I should be able to get down to Cap tomorrow afternoon/evening for some more awesome action. Just gotta run better that is all.
Off to INK Cafe downtown for some filet sandwich and, yup, its gonna be a Makers and Coke night, yeah, definitely.

Life/Poker Update (December to March)
So its been about 4 months since the last entry and lots have changed in the land of the Supernit. I will get you all updated on the state of poker here in No-Cal.
Here are just a smattering of the happenings of my last 6-ish sessions:
- Played 4 times at Cache and made a fair amount of money, all the hands have escaped my brain now but w/e.
- Capitol finally answered the call and instituted a 6/12 Full-Kill Game which is awesome. I played that a couple times for about 10 hours and came down a bit. Basically its just a bunch of 4/8 players ready to spew out stacks and stacks $2 chips. <3 Live Poker
- Booked for Las Vegas and the CP Trip Vol. 3 (6/10 - 6/14). In attendance: Nik, Deuce, Shabbs, TFong, Rambler, Pika, AlbinoKid, Shifty, Dan and Reb to name a few.
- This time will be a bit different. Nik, Deuce, and Shabbs will be playing one of the limit events at the Series. I will have roughly 30% of Santi's action. So, when he takes home the braclet, I will be a very rich dude. Also there is a steak dinner to any of those three who knock out Daniel Negreanu.
Haven't really played much live poker lately because....
I bought a house and that takes up most of my time at the moment. Painting, neglecting the neighbors, you know all those great things that come with the house ordeal.
I hopefully look to start the live game up again some time in April to gear up for the Hi-Stakes 4/8 game that will be taking place in Vegas w/ Nik, Deuce, Shabbs, TFong, and Reb (but mostly for the 8/16 at Bellagio and the 10/20 at Mirage.
That is all for today. I have been hitting up Mongo pretty regularly, I should start a food blog.
On a separate note, the 67 weight loss/strength training bet is awesome. I have gained lots of strength and am 10 lbs away from being able to bench my own body weight (165), lame I know but I am a skinny fucker.

Cache Creek: 12/6 - 4/8 Kill
Yeah, so a night after the 4/8 Superstar made his triumphant return to Cache, I ventured up by myself (degenerate gambler status) for some 4/8 action. The Superdonk would be joining me sometime later. So I didn't feel like a complete unsocial dreg of society.
I called a few friends from work and my other job (baseball instructor) to meet me up there as well. As I heard later from them, they all did pretty decent.
Anyways, on to the action. My session started off pretty slow as I dropped roughly a rack whiffing and having the older Mexi-Gambler with a cowboy hat call my raise w/ 32os and trip up on the river against my 99 in a kill pot. For the first hour or so I just shot the shit w/ Steve (guy who reminds me of Kyle Gass of Tenacious D fame) about O8 and other random things.
After that, I noticed that my table was getting pretty short in chips and I decided to call for a table change which worked out pretty well as there were a lot of gamblers and more money on the other table. I ran pretty well, after losing the first two pots I was in. Then this hand came up:
Hero in HJ w/ AKos.
UTG raises, called by 2 including SAG w/ sunglasses (I took lots of chips from him by the end of the night for his stupid aggro-donk plays, LOL), folded to me and I 3-bet, button calls as does everyone else.
Flop: 952 rainbow (swing and a miss)
Check to me, I fire, everyone calls.
Turn: K completing rainbow.
Checked to me, I fire, folds back to SAG w/ glasses and he tanks for a bit and announces raise. I insta-call, obv not giving him any respect whatsoever.
River: T
SAG bets, I call.
I show AK thinking it was no good expecting to hear a repugnant “Two Pair.” He shows K4os. <3 Live Poker.
In the following hours TFong showed up ended up playing for a good 8 hours deep into the night. After which he was hassled by a waitress funny story, you got to hear him tell it.
So yeah, like I mentioned earlier, that SAG w/ glasses tried to limp reraise me 3x through out the night. It just so happened that I had AA, KK, and QQ each time all which held in monster pots. Especially the KK hand where I flopped top set, and was called to the river by 4 people, and then boated up.
Stats:
12/6: TP: +$250 TSP: 5.5 Hrs
All in all pretty good night. Thx to TFong, Dave, and Steve for making it out.
Played Cache again on 12/12 w/ the 4/8 Superstar during the day for some Aces Cracked Action. Spoiler alert, I hit it twice!!! But would it be enough for me to post a winning session and fend off the various limit monkeys at Cache.
Good Nite Now!

5:00pm - Arrive at Cap still waiting for TFong and add both of us to list. 4 & 5 Respectively
5:45pm - TFong arrives and we still haven't moved on list
5:50pm - TFong and I decide that we should make a run to the Creek
6:50pm - Arrive at the Creek, this is where the story begins
So I sat in the 1 seat and had 2 racks brought, std. As the I was unracking my chips, I noticed some sort of switch like apparatus on the rail of the table. So I figured, fuck it, I might as well flip it and see what happens.
Turns out it was the GOD Mode switch and I ran like Usain Bolt.
It was a great night, held in every major pot, and had some sort of tri-level stack working. TFong and I were at the same table and basically were in awe of the difference of the Creek compared to Cap. It has been so long, the speed of the game at Cache is a little slower that at Cap, so the comfort level was a bit higher.
At the end of the night, I racked up $400 and change. Fwiw, I am still looking for one of those Santi-esque days of $600+.
Thx to TFong for persuading me to hit up the Creek.
In other news, I will be leaving West Sac, and moving into the Flood Plain of North Natomas. Bought a Bank-Owned House, foreclosures FTW!!!
Details to come, house warming party obv.
