So I met Mike on the 1030 bus and we discussed the Giant PLO game. Good talk. A bus grinder asked us to keep it down so we were like fine and spoke lower. You know it’s a bus grinder when they plan to sleep going TO the casino. There’s def staking and shadiness in that game people should be very cautious of. I asked if he wanted to chop the bus coupons and he said no because he wanted to go to the PLO ASAP while I had to check in. It worked out because I won my spins and he lost his.
After checking in I figured I had to take a quick look to see how the NL looks. Looked shitty. My Thursday late night standards are super high because I want to watch Big Brother on the cbs app and I want to do the gym before plo8 on Friday. So it needs to be retard deluxe in there for me to play.
Plo8 actually went terribly for me. Simply couldn’t make a hand and got unlucky in big spots. Unlike the previous week there weren’t a steady crew of idiots coming in and out. The game went to 4 handed and I floated the idea of playing 5-10 so we would pay 4 bucks a half instead of “half rake” pot rake. It’s not really half. Everyone agreed except Big Jeff because he’s a scared nit. Nice guy though. I actually got them to break the game with Jeff there which was awkward. But after a while it ended up being me, Asian Danny, decent New kid, and Bruce. Bruce was actually the mark in the game. Anyone who checks in the dark in an Omaha game is bad IMO. I hear he plays stud very well but that might be it. Asian Danny left and then Bruce left. Apparently Danny was a WELCOME addition for Bruce. Danny is probably the best player in the casino. Maybe Bruce thinks I’m too dangerous shorthanded? But it was terrible and I ended up losing 891 in plo8 total.
I took a break after it ended and had Thai for dinner. I played NL and was enjoying the glasses. Soon enough FAT SPAZZ joined the game. This guy was genuinely garbage. He’s the kind of guy who..we’ll lets just get to it. There’s a straddle, I’m button. Folds to me, I make it 30, he calls in BB only. I have AJ. Flop 910Q two diamonds(I have Ad). He checks, I bet 60. Call. Turn offsuit 2. I bomb it to 300. This is one of those boards you need to bomb or check imo. He calls! He has 100 behind at this point. River offsuit 5. He checks. I put him all in. Debate! He finally calls. I say You Win. He then says “Muck Then”. I say no lol. He shows J4! I won a 935 pot with A high over 3 streets of action. Never played a crazier hand. He proceeds to lose 3k over 7 hours or so I played with him. He settled down around 7am which I kind of liked because I needed some rest so I can play good Saturday. I did win 737 that session.
Next day was alright. I kept an eye out for F. Spazz and FOUND HIM. I won some decent cash from him. He got lucky and left. The previous night he tried to leave numerous times but I told him he shouldn’t leave before he was Big because he’s missing free hands. Like 3 times he got utterly destroyed during these “free hands” so when I tried it again he just left. The fucking nerve! That was pretty much trip. I ran bad in the next session but ehhh. I hope Indian Doctor or Fat Spazz are there this trip. I only won 112 in poker but I won 120 in the bus match, 100 points, 25 arcade coupon, 20 bucks mystery cash, free bus coupon, and I earned points playing so I made over 400 if you squint your eyes.
if he is willing to call with nothing but j4, trying to bluff him when hes only got $100 (and had called $300) is a bad move
ReplyDeleteI sometimes like to empty the barrel. I’m not saying that’s a good idea tho
