So after my successful trip down to SD to play poker with the crew, I'm back home and have booked back to back winning sessions at Bay 101 bringing in almost $454 (which for this donkey is not bad.)The first night, I scooped up the biggest pot of my life (pretty sure this it was the biggest) of approximately $280. I'm on the button and have 5 limpers in front of me (playing 6-12). I look down and see pocket rockets so I raise it up to $12. Everyone including the blinds call so the pot has $84. The flop comes 9x4. The blinds check and my arch nemesis Hormones (my cousin) leads out for 6. One guy calls and it gets to me and I raise to 12. Hormones reraises to $18 the guy calls and I just call because I figured he has a set because 2 pair unlikely with the board being what it is. Now $128 in pot The turn was my gin card Ace of diamonds. Hormones bets, guy calls, and I raise to $24 Hormones raises to $36 guy calls and I reraise to $48 and they all call. Now $272 in the pot. I yell out 9 diamonds because I want the other guy to make his flush but for me to fill up. The river comes and it is a 9 of clubs. Hormones has 2 chips left and the other guy missed his flush draw and folds and I call the 2. Hormones had pocket 4's for a full house but I have a bigger full house to rake in a $280 pot. Hormones and I left right after that and I booked a $324 winning session.
Went back yesterday and won $120 playing 6-12 so not doing too bad. I can't remember the last time I had 2 winning sessions in a row. This year is shaping up to be a good one...I need a good year to erase the horrors of 2005.
