Foxwoods trip and ranting

The Skyliner bus from Flushing is awesome. For 15 bucks(and it's 12 on the last two buses of the night) you get 60 in matchplay and a round trip ticket. Around Christmas they give you 85 in match. Biggest thing is that they actually leave to and from the casino ON TIME(hello greyhound). I was at the GF-ish house on Wednesday in Jersey watching Big Brother season finale WHICH JOSH WINNING WAS A FUCKING CRIME. Still pisses me off that the jury would be so bitchy and bitter that Paul owned them so they gave the 500k to the obnoxious idiot.

We all know the morning game sucks in casinos so I decided take the 11am bus instead of the 10am to Foxwoods. Can eat, check in, yada yada. First table of 2-5 NL went very well. Biggest hand was a guy overplayed KK(I think) or AK suited. He made 20 UTG and I have 99 in the BB, 4 callers in between. Flop was 9JJ and spade came on the turn. Money goes in and he flashes the K of spades. High point was turning 200 into 1300 but table got a bit junky and cashed out 1100.

I then...played 10/20 OE. I promised myself I wouldn't play it but I did. I made 255 in the game off regs who were steaming. Stud HI/LO in particular is a game where you can steam off money a lot. Calling that 5th street bet drawing thin can be a thing. After a rollercoaster affair I ended up winning 255 and rolled out. MORE than happy to go. After a short break I went back to NL. I'll spare the details, but I got two outed in a 1300 dollar pot. That one hurt and table was good but I'm
not great brushing off gut punches like that. I then proceeded to play on Global Poker and lost 4 straight SNGs where I was ahead 3 times when the money went in. I then went to bed. Fuck this.

Friday sucked. Lost 308 in 2-5 NL, around 150 in plo8, and another 550 in OE. I absolutely need to  quit playing anything besides hold em(except heads up OE, that's welcome but just doesn't happen). So after lamenting my life I sat back at 2-5 NL and was on one of those must move tables that only has a few people. So it was a rotating cast of 3 people. I busted the last two guys. Won 685 in 20 minutes which is a pace I need to keep up. After that, I got to the main game and won 209. So ended up winning about 565 after expenses. I was disappointed the blonde poker chick with the massive jugs wasn't there much. They're so big! Maybe next week. Same schedule for fox next week. Part of my reasoning for writing this blog is keeping myself  in line so I'm telling you all now, NO MORE non-NL GAMES.
