FRIDAY - $3-$6 Limit Round of Each H/L Game
Turn out was great, it was alot of fun playing other games instead of NLHE. I actually made some money after playing Heinz Poker for a short period of the game. I didn't jump into the game until real late because the table was full pretty much the whole evening. Lauren made some Taco Pie that was good. Can't wait to decide what she will be making for the game next game.
SATURDAY - $210 Freezeout & $1-$2 NLHE
After taking a small nap Friday morning after my game, I had to head down to Pops Game at the S.H.O.P. He just got back from his Florida Trip and was in town to host his game, then in the morning he was headed straight to Vegas for a mini vacation of his own...
Game started out with a small tournament with about 13 players. Travis and I dealt the 2 tables when it broke to 1, I dealt the final table while he dealt the cash game. Noelle usually deals the cash game, but she was still in the tournament so Travis did his thing for the cash game 'till Nelly busted out the Tournament. Pops and Rick chopped up 1st and 2nd place money with Pops having a 2 to 1 chip lead on Rick while Keenan took 3rd place.
Cash game started and I played my usuall game, building my stack until I went card dead towards the end of the game. Game was cut at 3AM because Pops had to catch an early morning flight to Vegas. Ran my stack up to a little over $500 making a small but nice profit, its not that $1K cash out I like, even though it looked like it was getting there in the middle of the game. There really were no hands that stick out to me worth talking about.
Travis, Noelle and I planned to head up to Atlantic City after the game...we were going to get dropped off in Baltimore to catch the greyhound up for a 6:30AM departure. Meanwhile, Paul was interested to go, so I kept mentioning it to him tryin to convince him, lets go...after a lot of convincing, he decides what the hell and drives up to Atlantic City!
Game breaks, we clean up a little bit, and head to Atlantic City. We arrive at the Trop and Pauls drops us off at the Trop...Home Field to me...I just can't play anywhere else and he heads over to the Borgata.
SUNDAY/MONDAY - TROPICANA/TAJ MAHAL TOURNAMENT
We got to the Trop, my FAVORITE poker room in Atlantic City and sat down to a table at 6:30 AM. I sit at a table with Travis cause of course, I see an extra sexy chick at the table...but Travis sat at the end of the table with her, and being I don't like to sit in the middle of the table, I decide to sit on the opposite end. The table is short handed and we are playing like donkeys having fun until we get other players to sit down and as it got later in the morning, the table fills and fun poker is done with. I end up getting friendly with Meeva, the chick I was eyeing at the table...But being I had a bunch of chips and I couldn't miss draws, I ended up shipping her my stack on a flush draw when it was obvious she hit a set on the flop and I was tryin to draw out on her...she is banging each street until the river and let me off the hook on the river which I didn't understand..she did alot of retard plays and I found myself bluffing her alot out of hands. I guess justice was served when I shipped her my stack and she stands up 15 minutes afterwards with my money...she cashes out and comes back to the table and asked if I was gonna be here when she gets back...the person she came with had to be back home and she was gonna come back afterwards...Told her to give me a call but no service at the Trop and I didn't see her again..hopefully she will still call me just to chat a lil bit 
Played $1-$2 NL the rest of the day, making a small profit and decide to play the 7:15 Deepstack Tournament at the Trop. $80+$20 Buy in with starting stacks at T$10,000 in chips. I thought this would make for better play, but being the structure is stupid, its no difference starting with the regular T$4000 Tournaments with the Single Add-on. At least it fixed my curiousity with that tournament, I ended up doing well until the blinds started getting out of hand and it turned into an all in fest...made it to 2nd break with Antes being 200, Blinds are at $400-$800 I decide its time to push on any decent hand. I get irritated and found myself in late position after paying $1600 in antes and my blinds, I'm down to T$5800 chips left and decide im just goin to push...guy besides me is irritated that I did the move I did..yes it was some donkey shit, but I didn't want to play anymore. I'm in LP with 79o, Limp, All In, fold, fold, All in, Fold, Fold, I'm all in, after saying Fuck it and chip leader called all 3 all ins. Guy besides me was like, I really hope you have somethin and not feed the chip leader any chips...I told him yeah, I have a straight draw with 2 flush draws and show him my 79o...he is disgusted and berates me for making such a stupid play, I say watch what happens and told him I just didn't wanna play nomore, fuck this tournament...he was shorter that I was but took it very seriously...with his stack its a crap shoot as well...anyway, im up against QQ, AK and some hand I can't remember to my 79o LOL
Flop comes 6TAr with the chip leader with AK excited he is about to scoop the main and side pot! Turn is blank, River 8...OOPS...I ran into my straight...I said OOOH look at that, dude besides me is sick to his stomach and says I can't believe this shit...I say I have a straight! dealer didn't make us turn out cards over and the whole table says, "What?" I laugh and say, "straight, this game is pretty easy" and laugh..."yes I know this was disgusting, Me So Lucky!" and I collect the main pot which was pretty damn hefty off the quadruple up and chip leader takes the side in disgust. Couple hands later, I laughed and said, damn that was pretty dirty huh? chick across the table said yeah, that was dirty as shit dude LOL I bust out when we are down to the last 3 tables. Meanwhile, Travis, Noelle and I decide we want to play the Midnite tournament at the Taj. This was just for the fun of it...you start with T$12,000 in chips, levels are 12 minutes and it cost $38+$12 to play...$50 bucks is cool to donk off and have some fun with. So yeah, 2nd hand in, im busted and first player to bust out. Guy to my left flops a boat holding J8, flop comes out J88, 2 clubs, I have A7c, Turn was a 6c, we get all our money in the middle and I ship it. Go sit down at a $1-$2 NL Table run my stack to get my buy in back with a real small profit when Noelle busts out and says, lets go back to the Trop..sure, let me cash out and lets go..Cash out and we head back to the Trop...The Taj sucks...I hate the Taj...Just reminded me why this place is stupid...
Head back to the Trop and decide to play the Pink Game with Noelle...$7.50-$15 Limit Holdem' Wow, this game was fun...Noelle busts and goes to bed. Now this game is a damn roller coaster, gained the respect I wanted and was able to take down some pots w/o going to showdown, I break dead even and cash the hell out and go to bed around 7AM.
MONDAY - TUESDAY - BORGATA/CAESARS/TROP
Wake up around 12 and found that Paul got up already and was at the Borgata. I wash up and cab it to the Borgata and find Paul. Plan was to leave around 3 to make it home by 6 so I can be home when my daughter gets back from day care..yeah, I made arrangements cause we are going to stay the day again....Sit at the next table to him and play some $1-$2 NL and grab some pots here and there...Talking to a guy I have seen many times at the borgata and figure out how I know him, he plays in Bumpers Annapolis Tournaments he used to host on Thursdays but Chip and Cutty have takin it over for Bumper. I think about registering for the Act I Tournament. The Borgata Summer Open is going on now and Mondays even was the $300 rebuy tourney. I think about playing the 2nd Chance cash tournmant also...but lose track of time and don't. Paul busts out and says lets hit the buffet...heh, im up somethin small again, lets go...see the trend? I don't mind leaving if I'm up and I'll take the profit any day LOL. Go eat at the buffet and he says lets go hit Caesars...
Play at Caesars for a little while, run my stack up....again...and after a couple hours of play, game looks like its going to break, well...the folks that I was playing with that I was having fun with decide to get up, so I get up and tell Paul im taking a cab back to the Trop. Nothing wrong with Caesars and actually didn't have any retard dealers so I have no problem with Caesars poker room, but its not the Trop...I made my decision yesterday, I will only play at the Trop and Borgata from now on...no need to ask what casino I want to play at, its either 1 of the 2 but best when we first get there, just know I'll be at the Trop makin my way to the Borgata later on during the trip.
Wow at the action table I was at...of course I ran my stack up a good bit amount and Charlie, Marco walk in and see me, I was sitting at the table with Charlies cousins and didn't know it was them...total fish...The table was all fish and dude I played with when we first got there was sat at my table, we chit-chat a lil bit and don't get into each others pot, if it happens that we get heads up, we just checked it down...he never won a pot from me. Anyway, Charlie comes up to me and says, Don't take my cousins money E...Those 2 are my cousins LOL Fine man...but for some reason his cousin Salso had my number and won some big pots off me...ok, its war LOL...I finally snapped him off and it was a big hand...pot got to be close to $1000. I looked down to 55, it was a raised pot, Salso is drunk off his ass and likes to push...he runs his stack up high off the suck outs..he couldn't miss a draw...I hit my set on a A35 board. 4 hits the turn, dude to my right that is all in says yes and shows his duece...fuck...A on the river..BOAT SHIP IT...I scoop the pot! 2 racks of red-birds im boosted, Salso continues to rebuy after rebuy, and is now in the game for way over $1400 and we just sit there and pick at his chips....then it turned into drunk poker, table fills up with 6 drunks and 3 of us are sober including me, and we are just pickin off the drunk players...This one guy just can't do it...he is extra angry and storms off after 3 rebuys and him falling victim to Salso's drunk suck outs..it was disgusting...Couple of the regulars decide to go get fucked up and blaze, but Salso wants to play more, I say fuck that, yeah lets keep playing, Take a stack and a half out my rack, head to the cage with the rest and cash it out oooh that felt good LOL....so we move over to Noelle's table and everyone is happy that we decide to move the party over to there table now...Salso just stitched his stack away slowly buy surely and decides to keep re-buying until he is dead broke. I ran my stack up doubling it, then decide to register for the 11:15 tournament...the whole night waiting to spread a pink 2-way game also...not enough interest so it was a wash...I took $65 in chips off the table and went to the cage and cashed it up so I can register for the Tourney...I took a break, took $25 off the table and went to the crap table while I took a break and dumped it after making somethin small...came back and ran it back up...made a bad call, shipped a stack to guy on my left..its cool, didn't hurt me one bit...made it back and decided to get cute with the hammer....72o i raised and flop came out 22A, I bet $17 on the flop, got 2 callers and 6 came on the turn, Bet out $40, dude is hollywooding me the whole time LOL...call...River brings a 5...Bet out $60, he asks if I have a duece, i say yeah...he asks let me see it...I say pay per view dude...and point to the $60 bet...hits me with the ok, im all in then...oops...insta call...i can't lay down trips...he shows 25 of clubs for a boat....OOOPS, i ship him my stack, he has me covered...heh...its time for the tourney anyway...god damn why did I have to get cute? lol oh well...still up for the trip...
