Weekend in Atlantic City

Alright, made some decent money at my game on Friday...So Kenny and I hit up Atlantic City for the weekend...MD-Poker folx up there, Travis and Nelly up there as well...we'll catch a room with them and ride back home with them...

Anyway...Taj has SnG's now for $50+$15 or $100+$20...played 6 SnG's and cashed 3 of the 6 so I'm 50% on the SnG's! for a total of $900 bucks!

First SnG I cashed, I chopped...I was actually in last place and snuck into the final 3 which I kept asking for a chip 50/30/20...got more chips takin from me...so I just ask for my buy in back....3 of them refused..well actually 1 of them, the older dude didn't have a voice at the time so thats all good...Get dude to make a move when I flop trip J's LOL...he is pissed, cracked his KK with TJo. Dude limped in, im in da blinds...I JJ7 on da flop...I check, he puts me all in, I call...dude is pissed...so the older gentleman says do you still want to chop? we are pretty much even stacked so I say, lets chop $200 each and play heads up for the $100...I take him out with A9o to his A8o as I spike the 9 on the river!

SWEEET $300

2nd SnG we running long...the final 3 players including me, are tight good players...I played with one of the dudes in the daily MTT Tourneys at the Taj...uh oh...6:15 is here, they have been seating for the $120 tourney...I say, man this is the table im supposed to be sittin at...all 3 of us are registered for the tourney, they want us to move...lets just chop and play the big tourney now...so we chop $200/$200/$100 with me being 2nd chip leader while I was chip leader the majority of the game...

SWEET $500

$100+$20 Tourney - 145 players paying out top 18 players...

I bust out in 28th place...very short stacked with blinds way crucial...I swear I need to work on my late tourney play...im ok till the blinds go way past me and my chip stack doesn't keep up with the blinds...

Waitin for T to finish up the tourney cause he is in the money now...I tell Kenny..look at the fish waiting for the SnG to fill up...im registering...i get that table..final SnG for the evening! WOW I dominate the table...dude offers a chop when we heads up..says...just let me get $100..I say ok, I'm way ahead of you so ok...its NLHE so anything can happen, and I want to make sure I get paid so I chop...I know I could've whooped him heads up, just wanted to guarantee my $400

SWEET $900 total for SnGs for a total profit of $510...lost the tourney ($120) so I'm only up for the trip $390...not bad ...made money on Friday at the same time too...so not a bad weekend!

Damn its been a while AGAIN...WHATS NEW?

Yup...always late posting new posts on here...i suck like shit...

Anyway, just a recap of the month...

First off I have been crushin the home tourney circuits lately...

Took Down Brians from MD-Poker.com Wednesday tourney..haven't played since, he hasn't really been having home tourneys lately, so I remain KING OF BRIAN'S CIRCUIT LOL

Took down Syds 3 weeks ago...2 weeks ago, got 2nd place...didn't go last night, it was a rebuy tourney...definately been doing good, can't wait for next Tuesday to see how I hold up...

Pops STT Headhunter, cashed for 3rd with 1 bounty...

Had a STT on Monday, the 11th, took 1st place.

As far as online...ehhh...not too well in tourneys, can't seem to have the patience for some reason...so haven't really been playing lately...Can't decide where to put my money in online, think im going to try out Ultimate Bet...

As far as the cash games been going, im up...had a bad weekend this week, but looking to make it up on Friday...tonight can't decide if I want to play Travis and Noelle's game but gonna stop by and see how its going...might try my luck though...took a punishing this weekend...dropped 2 balls at Nicks on Sunday...

might just chill and play online but we'll see...

I'm going to make it a point to post each and every game I play from now on...either Online or Off line...
