I take another shot off him...
Then Frank puts the kill...

Would play a lil more tournies tonight, but got an interview tomorrow...so I'll jump on tomorrow when I get back home and try and run this BR back up to where its supposed to be.
Anyway, cash out $207 so I'm stuck $13 bucks...it was worth the fun!

Didn't make it up to Caesars to play...Wasn't tryin to risk drivin my truck to Pops house and catch a ride with him...oh well...next time, so you know what I did, ended up playin on Full Tilt again..

I am disappointed in the finishes today..

$20+$2 Tourney - 7th Place
17K Guaranteed Tourney - 18th Place out of 883 players...Clonie Gowen was at my table at one point, thought that was pretty cool.

Game at the S.H.O.P - Pops Game

Went to Pops game that is held every other Saturday.

Played a $90 + $10 NL Tourney, 17 players, he usually gets a full 2 tables, but this time was only 17, wasn't bad. I got 3rd place for a payday of $280.

By the time I busted out of the tourney, the cash game was already full...so there was a wait list till I can sit down...so in the mean time, the folx waiting decided to play $2/$4 Limit Dealers Choice game. I ended up stuck -$19 bucks....My boy Ross gets up cause he wants to watch the fight tonight, since he made a ton of money, ($600 somethin) He decides to get up and tells me the seat is nice, so I take his seat when he leaves...and he sure wasn't lying!

I sit down with $181 bucks, bought in for another $100 and Played with what was left in the $2/$4 game...

Game ended up breakin at 2:30 AM and I get up with $740!

Great night, total profit made this evening $800!

Last Nights game was crazy, 4 Quads and each one of them was paid off with a big bet on the river ($100 ) or there were all-in bets that were called with quads...OUCH! Glad I didn't get mixed up in those hands!

Not Another One! - Final Table showing on Party Poker

Just finished from last nights tourney...took a beating in the .50/$1 game with Willy...Registered for the $55 tourney to try and get this money back...yup, it worked!

3rd place! $660 bucks!



Since Sunday, I have been to 4 final tables, cashed in 5 tourneys, and took down 1...$1500 bucks so far!

Tuesday, March 14, 2006

Another Final Table on Party Poker! (Did I play this hand wrong)?

Not a bad showing, a little disappointed that I didn't make it any further...but played a $33 NL Tourney on Party Poker, 99 Max Players...Top 10 paid out.

Got 10th place, Let me know if you would have played this hand any different, now that I'm looking at it, a raise to 3x Blind would have been appropriate I believe...

$33 Limit Holdem Tourney on Party Poker

Not bad heh?

Got heads up with dude...even chip stacks, we chopped 1st and 2nd 50/50 total between both of us was $1537.20 chopped even for $768.60 each...

Party Poker

OK, So I buy in a $5+$1 Tourney Prize Pool is at $4610.
Field of 922...

While im playin this, I'm waiting for the $40K Guaranteed Tourney to start...

So I'm playing both of these tournies and decide to buy in the $5+$1 Shoot out Tournament as well...

Doing well in both tournies....The shoot out tourney starts and BOOM...Everyone is disconnected for almost 1 hour...

So that kinda blows my groove, I'm above chip average on both tournies...shoot out just starting

When PP reconnects...The shoot out tourney, blinds are now 200/400????? WTF
The $6 Tourney blinds are way up there
and the 40K guaranteed blinds are up there, at least 3 levels worth of blinds went past while everyone was disconnected and when the tournies restarted, we restart where we left off and the blinds are extra high now...This is UNFAIR I believe..so I write to PP to complain about this...I had a real decent shot at both tournies...with the 40K 1st prize was 9G...WTF

Anyway, I bust out the $5+$1 Tourney in 125th out of 922 with folx cashing at 100th place...UPSET

Shoot out tourney I place 7th because when the tourney disconnected we were still at 20/40 blinds and then we come back to 200/400 LOL I'm out any face cards I see, I push LOL im out in 7th..

I at least cash in the 40K guaranteed...I'm very upset at this though only cause i have a very good shot at this payday, but get fucked cause of the disconnection and the blinds increasing 2-3 levels w/o any play...fuck that...im pissed...I end up gettin 128th out of 2166 makin it to the 3rd tier of the payscale... damn im upset at that...


Oh well, waitin on a regular $30+$3 freeze out tourney to begin...Hopefully I can get a decent payday for the retardness of PP tonight....

Now that we are caught up - the ATLARGE Event at Taj Mahal

Went up to AC to go up for the ATLARGE tournaments...

ATLARGE is an annual gathering in Atlantic City of poker players who originally "met" and/or still participate on the Internet Newsgroup rec.gambling.poker (rgp). We get together in different poker friendly locations throughout the US during the year to have fun and PLAY POKER. Our biggest annual meeting is called BARGE and it is held in Las Vegas in August. ATLARGE is the Atlantic City version, and is held in March of every year.

ATLARGE stands for: ATLantic city Annual RecGambling Excursion. Historically, the attendance at ATLARGE is second only to BARGE. Last year, over 180 r00lerz from all over the planet brought the good times to Atlantic City for four days of fun and p0cker. ATLARGE 2006 will be held at the fabulous TRUMP TAJ MAHAL, the largest card room in Atlantic City. www.atlargepoker.com

So I ride up with Keenan when he gets off work, and make it up there in time to get some grub at the Pokerstars.com dinner...Dinner was great, speakers were kinda boring, but we left anyway to play some 1/2 NL downstairs.

Long story short on Friday Night, Bought in for the max $300 and was run down to about a good $32bucks, ran it back up to $268 and decide to cut my losses and head up to the room and go to sleep...

Saturday morning, we go and register for the NL Tourney for the ATLARGE folx...Bad structure, tourney started out choppy...Buy in was $100+20 Everyone recieved T$1000 in chips, blinds started at 5-10 with 30 minute levels...not bad, but not enough chips to play poker, I think it was a lil under 200 players, top prize was around $6000 with 18 places being paid out a min of $245 or somethin like that...Anyway, had a last longer bet with the folx from MD-Poker.com...

While waitin till the tourney started, we go grab breakfast and go play some $2/$4 Limit to kill time, I get in for $60 bucks and play my first hand blind and lost LOL, guy to my left is pissed we keep blind raising LOL...anyway, I donk off $49 bucks, and tip the dealer the rest of my money LOL, The old lady was viscious with it..."Where your balls, call me" or she hit me with the, "Your balls aint big enough to play with me, Im a nun, but who cares you aint got no fuckin money" LOL this lady was a fuckin trip!
Tourney did OK, played tight, and they put me, keenan and Travis on the same table...what a donk fest LOL sike na, we played well and well..Travis played like Travis

Blinds started getting up there, and my chip stack couldn't keep up with the blinds, so end up callin an all in hoping to double up with AKo but they ran into the chip leaders AA, but this guy is so lucky, hit AA a good 4 times, KK he had 6 times...This guy was extremely lucky as he took the chip lead very early knockin out about 3 players in the first level of the tourney...

We end up all busting out, head down to the Trop where I get my ass handed to me...Bought in for $240, rebought for $200 and end up losing it, I end up going upstairs, hit a J, and head out with Pete to Bare Exposures...Partied...

Sunday, I'm cashed out...lets see...how much money was lost...

Friday - ($32)
Saturday Mornin - $2/$4 game - ($60)
Saturday Tourney - ($120)
Last Longer Bet - ($20)
Saturday @ Trop - ($440)
Total loss playin poker: - $672

At least I had fun, but it sure isn't fun losing that much, I never allow myself to lose that much, so I need to step back when my cards are runnin very cold.

To put salt in da wound, I go to Chris game that night and donk off $100 bucks...wow...

TOTAL LOSS THIS WEEKEND: -$762

March 1, 2006 - Yall Still With Me? Disaster, My game was Robbed!!!!

Yall still with me? Well....Its been a while since I have been posting, maybe cause I haven't been working since the new year...

Oh well, I got some shit lined up and hopefully I can start back to work this month...

But my world in Poker...

First off, I have to say that my game was robbed on January 28, 2005.
This was some fucked up shit. I had one of the best games in Maryland and someone had to come and fuck it up for all of us. Now a days, its hard to find a game during the week now because everyone is being cautios about all the robberies goin on in MD/VA at these poker games. Its some fucked up shit, but luckily everyone came out un-harmed. They did get a lil over $5,000 with cell phones, keys, wallets and all that shit...they came in through the balcony door...3 masked men with 2 shot guns and one hand gun that was pointed to the back of my head and the bama asked where the money was at, I tried to only give him the re-buys for the night because the boat load of the money was in my room, but the bitch ass nigga demanded all the money...the fucked up thing about it, was the bama came directly to me, so basically they have either been scoping the game or even played with us before....

Anyway, I have been playing alot of online poker and still attending the home games that are still running, I won't let these bums fuck my game up...

So lets get caught up on my poker...

I did get 2nd in the Party Poker $100 buy in for $1800!



That weekend, Me and June headed up for AC dispite the fact that we knew the blizzard was bout to hit the whole east coast LOL What better place to be stuck at than the AC!

Anyway, we head down to the Borgata cause its late...I do ok...then go on a bad run, now im stuck a lil under $500 bucks...we are about to go home, but its Saturday night and we are dead tired....we end up falling asleep in his car and wakin up around 7AM sunday morning cause Redpit calls and asks where we stayin at...I said we still in da garage LOL

So we head out to go home, wow, blizzard fucked AC up, can't drive nowhere....but we end up driving to the Trop to wait it out and play some poker and possibly get a room there...

I'm doing ok sitting a lil over $400 now...Some dude from Philly is stuck over $1300 he kept tellin me, he is frustrated and it seems everytime he buys in for $100, it goes all in...he finally gives up and leaves the table...

Dude comes back with a lil over $300, but the max buy in is $300, so he sits back down to my left with that $300, he is hittin some pots to put him a lil over $450...im still sitting under $500 bucks now...and we get tangled in this hand...

I'm SB and 5 people limp in for $2 so the pot is now $10...
I look down at


The flop comes out:


I check it to Philly dude,
He bets out $12
The dude directly to his left raises to $40
I'm thinking I got these motha fuckaz now
I get hollywood on them and think and smooth call
and Philly dude calls as well
POT: $130
Turn is now:
Damn, I aint wanna see that cause now one of these dudes could be holding straight, I'm first to act
E-"All-In"
Philly jumps out his seat, "you what?", I say, "I'm all in homie"
"I CALL"
I now thinking shit, I fucked up I walked right into his straight...he has me covered by about $35 bucks...I push my remaining stack of $400 /-, Philly does the same...
"I call too" says the dude to philly's left...WOW what da fuck did I do?
by this time, its a crowd around the table watching the action...its almost $1,000 in the pot now....and I'm thinkin i fucked up cause I ran into someone's straight
River: or some stupid card...

Philly guys flips over:
The other guy has

I scoop the pot for about $1000 with my set of 9's!
Whew...I got real lucky! So now off to the Trop tourney of 55 players cause they are short on dealers...

I end up makin 15th place to 2 horrible beats when I got all my money in the middle preflop with the best hand cause I know they were short stacked tryin to make moves....

Goin up to AC this weekend for the ATLARGE tournament... www.atlargepoker.com

I'll try and take this down and then I'll be headed up for the WSOP events at the end of March at Caesars...

I'll keep this updated more often I promise!

No Poker tonight! Chillin wit Fam tonight...But let me catch yall up on the weekend.

Thursday Night, hit Cutty's game up...not the greatest game as everyone brags about...I'm convinced I have one of the top games in MD...Might not be as big stakes as other games, but for a 1/2 NL game...my game is viscious...anyway...Played a $115 NL Tournament....didn't do to good...so now im down $115...so Kenny is still playin in da tourney, so I decide to sit in the cash game with $150 bucks...its a dealers choice game and it seems like the game of choice that was popular was Omaha H/L 8 and a 7-card stud variation called "pitch" Stakes were $1/$2 Pot Limit capped at $50...Pitch is basically 7 card stud mixed with pineapple...you get dealt 4 cards, pitch one, and turn one over as in a regular 7 card stud game and the rest is played like stud...Cashed out $380...so for the night, I have a profit of $115 bucks...

Friday's game was crazy...wow...anyway, I finally get into the game and I drop $120...oh well...

December 22, 2005 - Stackem Up

Well alright!

Played at Noelle and Travis' game last night in College Park. It wasn't so crazy this week, but still alot of money on that table...It actually was a real good game if you ask me...Had Loosey Pete there who can tend to play over aggressive....Had the new AC guy there, and the regulars...

Started out with $180...Still owed them $150 from last Saturday, Told Nelly, I'll get ya at the end of the night cause I might need to go to the ATM but I'm going to win tonight so I'll get ya when I cash out...

Wasn't playing like a Donkey, played very well....had some good lay downs and reads....

Only 2 major hands that stick out to me cause they were both all in hands and cause of these 2 hands, put me over the top!

First hand was agains Loosey Pete...He came late, was rackin up chips....and luckily for me, he was chipped up when I got involved in this hand...I've got about $350 in front of me...Did well takin down medium and small pots, Semi bluffed a couple of drawing hands that I ended up takin down...my pre-flop betting is improving and i'm gettin that image as a tight player again...so its all workin out...anyway...I've got about $350 in front of me...I'm in late position...Preflop Bets:

Me, JesseY, Loosey Pete are the only on in the hand...

2 limpers
I raise to $15 to go
JesseY Calls
Pete re-raises to $40
I think, and re-raise "All-In" for an additional $310 maybe?
JesseY Folds
Pete Calls (He has me covered)

Me: AA
Pete: KK

My rockets hold up! Ship it

Later in the night, I'm chillin, playing good poker and get dealt AJd
Almost a family pot Flop is all diamonds 297
im in late position and its checked all the way around to me...I bet out $12 bucks
folds to JesseY and he bumps it up to $32 to go...I think, call....
Turn is an Ac
JesseY Bets $26, I min raise to $52, He re-raises me $60 on top, I re-raise "all-in" he calls very quickly....
River is a 7 and I'm scared of the boat, I flip over, "nut flush"
He looks sick...he flips over Q5d...we both flopped the flush....crucial, he ships his whole stack which put me over the top with close to $1200 bucks...hit $1300 and then was just way too tired to keep playin, its almost 3AM and I gotta go to work, so I wait a couple of rotations and cash out close to 3:30..played 8 hours and cashed $1155 for $975 profit!!! Thats $121/hour! Can't beat that!!!!

Might play Cutty's $115 tournament out Crofton, we'll see...but right now I might just chill and wait till Friday's game to play!

December 20, 2005 - Big Chris Monday Night Game

Well Well Well...They stuck me up last week, but I did it again...
Cashed out $600 bucks in the game for $160...Kenny hit me up at the beginning, but it aint Kenny if he aint shippin it right back

I love Big Chris' house!

December 19, 2005 - Weekend Games

Only played 2 games this weekend...

E's Friday $1/$2 NL

Had a good bit of players this weekend, game went till 12:00 PM Saturday, played 6 handed pretty much most of the morning. June left earlier than normal to protect his stack...cashed out with $1100...Nevin came late, ran his stack to $1100, Rock made him stay longer, Eddie and Val ended up comin down and Diggs walked in pretty early and gave some action....Nevin cashingout with about $1400, Rock shipped all his chips away, I pretty much broke even and got my buy in back...

I missed a big hand where I should of called I guess, but it was a good fold maybe, tell me what you think.....

4 players, im in late position, last to act....
I look down to Pocket 2s
Everyone limped in for $2 bucks
flop: A K 5 rainbow
Everyone checks
Turn: 2
Val bets out $10, Diggs raises to $25, Rock calls the $25, I re-raise to $100, Val folds, Diggs re-raises all in for an additional $200+, Rock says all in for about the same amount....I have about $250 in front of me left...(Are they really playing 34?) Wow...I think for a while and while Diggs keeps sayin I got the nuts...I'm like...aint no way they playin 34, but then I'm like, they were able to limp in and see the turn for free...I'm no good at this point...FOLD...threw my set of 2s away..
RIVER: 5 GOOD LAWD I filled up!

My thoughts: Should I have just smooth called the raise to see the river putting them on a straight in hopes to fill up? At least that way I get to see my 5 hit just smooth calling and I take the whole pot...with the 2 all in's it makes me wrong to call that and suck out a boat....Why did I raise with a possible limped in straight on the board? Very hard hand to play at least to me it is...so I guess I tried to take it down, lost my nutz and gave up what couldve been a huge pot! comments are welcome please let me know!!!

Saturday Night's Keenan/Trav/Noelle RoE Game...
This game is tight! Pot Limit Round of Omaha, Round of Holdem!

Game is fun, Dropped $150 in the game and rolled out, Had Cheyenne with me, Keenan has a Cat and I didn't take medicine b4 I got there, allergies started kickin in, got late so I left....cut my losses quickly...Great game though! No hands stand out to me..cept the hand that put me out...I have AJd, Anne has AJc we both hit TPTK, cept shit his runner-runner clubs on me to get my stack...thought we at least was gonna split...but oh well...I busted her last wednesday, so guess that's pay back LOL
