Went over to Trav and Nelly's game last night to find that it was only 4 players playing...Me, Rick, Bessman and a new guy...new guy was probably fired up inside comin down from Baltimore I believe...so THEY decided to play $2-$4 dealers choice to kill time in hopes more people walk through the door to play some $1-$2 NLHE...Nobody came...I really didn't want to play 4 handed but I didn't wanna seem like the jerk that ruins it for everybody...I paid for that...Paid $100 bucks for that...it isn't bad I guess, but I couldn't get nothing...I'm supposed to be scooping pots after pot to just catch bad on 5th, 6th, and 7th streets on the Stud H/L Games...Coupld Omaha H/L games I'm supposed to be scooping...Bessman was on fire and was just playing anything and hitting...He got up 2 hours later, New Guy just basically said fuck it and donked his money away and I walk away a meatball stuck...
Its all good though, Had good time just hangin out, ended up playing Monopoly and losing, to Spades to gettin our asses whooped, AGAIN...played a lil bit of cribbage and lost, played 13 round gin rummy and was winnin till Travis Cheated and called gin when he obviously knew i was pickin up a joker to stick an extra 50 points for me to kill my lead and end up losing AGAIN.
Next game is my Pink Game Friday Night, its looking good and the menu looks even better!

Heinz Blogging!
Let me catch yall up since last wednesday...
I haven't updated cause nothin pretty much has been goin on...I hope its cause of change of seasons....kids goin back to school, and everyone is gettin back from vacation and what not...I just hope things pick up...
Anyway...After Wednesday, The next game I played was at Big Chris house...got there at 8PM when the game was supposed to start, we sat around and watched football till about 10:30ish and decided nobody was gonna be there and played a 5 man tourney, 2 people showed up in time and we let them in the tourney when 2 hands were played already...ended up being 7 players...nothin big, just a $20 buy in. I got 3rd, Derrick and Kenny chopped down the middle and the cash game started...Did ok at first, then just went cold...won some hands, I put Rosslyn on Tilt after bluffing a couple hands and the perfect flop came out to set her up...I had 67o on the button and flop came out 669..I flopped trip 6s and she bet out $3, I raised $9 to make it 12 to go..she is in disgust cause I kept doin it...Turn came a J I bet out $17, she thinks and just calls...River brings a 9 and I have teh shitty boat, just bet $25 and she raises all in so quick and so sloppy it was funny.."All In" with authority LOL ok, i fold..good river, then she says, i know you had the 6, i wante to suck out and kept mumbling i know i don't know how to play so what...wtf...lol..she busts ryan and now we are heads up and we said we would call the game at a certain time so i post and tell her to post, now she don't wanna play..."What I can't try and get my money back" she doesn't wanna play me heads up..which is fucked up cause she just took that pot from me on a suck out...then she agreed on a time to quit and won't stay with the terms of agreement...fish...scared to play me heads up...I don't think I'll play over there any more...there is no min buy in...everyone buys in for 20 and rebuys for 20...then 10, I've seen a rebuy of 8 bucks before...its not worh the risk if they aren't even pumpin any money into the game...I just didn't like the fact Rosslyn wouldn't play me heads up and give me a chance for my money back when we all agreed to play to a certain time and she didn't...granted I only lost $25 bucks, i still want it back, she pretty much cleaned the fuckin table off cept me...she knows I would crush the shit outta her if we played heads up...guess its better to be safe than sorry...
Anyway, on to Saturday...Got my game together...some new faces, some old and some regulars...some of my regulars went to another game which I don't understand..but oh well..whatever....but the rake back program was in effect...Dave brought over his cousin and he killed the game...he was up close to 1K in about 2 hours then cashed out..that was sickening...After he got up, his seat was open the rest of the night...no one sat in it till Nishant came in after we are playing 6 handed..soon as Nishant sits down, he gets smaked with the deck...1 hand, doubles up, 2nd hand hits a straight again...straight after flush after straight...he made some good money as well...I ended up givin him my stack after I pushed all in with 9Jo on a 4TJ board...Nishant had QK and K hit the river for a higher pair...he asked if I wanted him to call, i told him yeah cause I know im ahead right now in hopes to double me up...blah....he got me on the river...game didnt' last too much longer after that when Kenny decides to give him another $150ish on a $100 River Bluff bet...Nishant calls quick cause of course...he caught the straight...
Sunday at the Fish Tank...Did OK...when I say OK, I mean cause I never rebought and was hovering over $200 the whole time...I played when game started till it was my shift to play and 10PM couldn't get there any sooner...
Anyway, when the game first started i was playin and Alex came in, I said give me a couple round and I'll let you sit down to play since I'll be here all night and I wasn't tryin to ship my stack so early...QQ, JJ, 88, 22, TT and none hit...Ace hit the board with my big pairs and always got raised when I bet the flop to see where im at...couldn't hit a set for nothin...gettin tired of that, so I tell Alex to sit down...hand he sits down to was AJs and won over $200 on that hand, now im sick cause after 10 minutes, he has a rack of red chips and a nice size working stack on the table...wtf...i got up 1 round too early...im sick to my stomach...
I get back in the game and play till my shift...I end up shippin half my stack to Fabian...I'm on the button with ATo and it was raised to $15 to go, Carter, Fabian and me in the pot...Flop TTJ, Carter bets out 20, Fabian calls, I go upstairs and make it $100..Carter is thinkin and ends up mucking...Fabian is counting chips..."All-In" $26 more on top of the $100...Insta Call, I flip AT over...Fabian, you guest it...beast...Flops da joint and my $100 raise was music to his ears LOL.
Glad he didn't have alot more money behind my $100!!!!
Get in the box and game breaks pretty quickly...around 1AM and they played 5-6 handed till 2AM...game broke...and gotta wait 1 hour for a cab...Last Sunday Night game at that...what am I to do Now???? I gotta think of a gig for the every other Saturday game to get players there...back to the drawing board....

Monday Night Poker
Chris didn't have his game Sunday neither Did Steve at the Fish Tank..Usually when Chris cancels his game on Sunday, they usually play on Monday, So I headed over there to kick it with the fellas, watch some football and play some cards...
Not such a serious game...didn't get cute with any cards and just played straight up ABC poker over there...I was up the whole game, even ran my stack to over $200 bucks...thats not bad for playin $1-$1 NL...but shipped a good size of my stack to Jizzle when he slow rolled his broadway...when I hit the ass end of the straight...im a fish...
I got him back when I hit TPTK on a scary board looking like KQT...Rosslyn was in the hand and she bet out and Jizzle thought about it and called, so I raised it up to push them off..Rosslyn is easy to push off hands, unless she has the nuts, and I knew I had Jizzle beat from the way he was hesitant to call Rosslyn's bet...My raise was enough to put Rosslyn all in, and Jizzle still calls...OK, Rosslyn called, I know im beat, Let me build the side pot up...Turn brings a K and now I have Trip K's with an A and still have a broadway re-draw...so I just toss a bunch of red chips out and Jizzle thinks, thinks, and just calls...River brought a small black card, so I stick enough out there to put Jizzle all in...he folds, I take my side pot to make up for the loss in the main pot, and say, "Rosslyn, go head and show the straight" yup, just as I thought, she flopped it LOL...luckily I could build the side pot up to make up for the main pot Loss...
One of the last hands of the night was with Me, Big Chris, and Frank...I get dealt 9Ts and flop comes out T98r, Frank bets out $6, Chris Calls, I raise it to $12, Frank Calls, and Big Chris decides to push as always cause he thinks someone is always tryin to bluff him...$44 more..I tell him I aint fuckin around and got a sweet hand...he says "so do I" yeah ok...after thinkin about it, I call...then Frank thinks and decides to call..whoa...im done...I know I got Chris Beat..I freakin know it, but Frank...shit...we check it down and he flips over J7o for the nuts...I go off on Chris lol why da fuck did you push man...we could've saved alot of money, cause after both of you call the raise, I check the rest of the way down, I know Frank checks and if he didn't he wasn't going to be betting big to get us to call and we could've lost alot less than if you push...When Chris Tilts, thats all he does...Push Push even with $12 in the pot...its stupid cause he will push with the nuts and not get more money in the pot cause he is always scared of gettin sucked out on...which to me is retarded...
Gettin late, Me, Frank, Rossly are playin 3 way and the game is about to break, Rossly just took some losses so decided to push with KJo...I insta call with pocket 7s and my 7s hold up to bring me to cashing out stuck....a whopping $5 bucks! From up a little over $200, to being stuck $5 bucks...whatever...got twisted, and hung out with the fellas..thats cool with me...

Rake Back Program!
Had my Pink game this past friday..what a circus...started out with Omaha/Stud/Holdem all high games with kill pots..then we decided to add Stud H/L to the line up, eh...might as well just be playin H.O.R.S.E. OK...lets play it! the pink game was crazy with no type of organization...Anyway, game went smooth though...rake back program was in FULL EFFECT...
From now on...The pink game will remain Holdem, Stud H/L, and Omaha H/L...thats it...Maybe next time cause its organized, I won't ship my stack all over the place!
Big Jay got hit with the deck at the beginning then GA Ave sat down and doubled up first hand in...The game is awesome, if you haven' made it out yet, you need to come play!
Saturday night, dealt Jeff's game in Laurel...Pops cancelled his game, so Jeff picked it up...Game went well, slow start, table filled with a couple on the wait list...Got tired all of a sudden and had to take a nap for a while...don't know what happened...game broke and that was it...nothin really spectacular happening this weekend...Sunday's game was canceled cause Steve is out of town...Big Chris game was postponed till Monday cause he just cleaned his floor...
Spent the day pretty much bullshittin slept till late, got up, played a freeroll on JetSetPoker for Go! Points and final tabled it out of 159 players....got 9th place when I flopped a set of 8s to his gutshot, and he tags his K on the river...I wanna reload on Stars and play the H.O.R.S.E Tables and see what I can do...

Tuesday and Wednesday Games
Dealt Jeff's game in Laurel Tuesday night, game went till 7AM when I had to break the game cause I had to be home in time to get my daughter before Ree goes to work. Was an ok night. Saads mom and sister sat in for the mix. Hand I remember it was Theresa, Saad's aunt Vs. Travis. I don't have hand history so here is the hand summary:
Da Aunt: TT
Travis: JJ
Bets and raise preflop:
Da Aunt tags a T on da flop to set on a 10 high board.
Bet, Raise, Call
Turn is nothing:
Big Bet, Call
River: J to set
Set over Set
Bigger Bet, Call
Ship It!
Scary Tyrade by Da Aunt, Says da game is rigged, somethin fishy was goin on and berated Travis for calling a raise on the flop with "only a pair" she was sick when Travis hit that 2 outer.
Other than that, Saad's Moms was Sending Big Jay to School. He busts out before the midnite hour. Did I mention I owned him heads up after smashing him in 15 minutes! LOL
The Donkey Coral
Great Turn out! Food was on point, it was Breakfast for Dinner! Omlettes made to order, all the sausage, bacon, biscuits, home fries you could eat...pancakes, blue berry pancakes too! Thanks Nelly for a great spread of food last night!!!!!
Nothin big I can remember, well at least any hands I was in...Stacked Scooter with KK talkin him into pushin dat shit in preflop. Played till Scooter busted and went home with him...
Ran my stack to a little over $500 never goin under my original buy in, couldn't hit a flop for shit early mornin, floppd a gut shot straight flush draw, firing at the pot with my K9 of diamonds with a flop lookin lik JdQd4s turn didn't help, river didn't help..lost a ton of chips on that play after gettin Gypsy Pete to move all in on me on the turn. Lost some small pots to my last $36 bucks hit a small pot her and there and ran it to $81....then I'm supposed to double up with Ad2c when I flopped an Ace with a backdoor flush draw, turned a 2 and moved all in, Jeff shows me his Ace, I show him my 2 and he decides to call, I flip over 2 pair, he is sick and the board pairs with the 9 playin as both our kickers...chop it up...He had A4o
Very next hand, im still steamin...get AKh raise to $7 with what..7 callers? lol Ace hits the board with 2 clubs, checks all the way to me, I move all in for like $76 bucks Jeff calls me again with A4o again! this time my K plays and I double up and now sittin with a small profit!
Run it up a lil and cash out with $220 for the night. Nothing Big, but its a change of pace from losing!
Todays is a day of rest...Game on for Tomorrow night's Pink Game!

Lost some small pots to my last $36 bucks hit a small pot her and there and ran it to $81....then I'm supposed to double up with Ad2c when I flopped an Ace with a backdoor flush draw, turned a 2 and moved all in, Jeff shows me his Ace, I show him my 2 and he decides to call, I flip over 2 pair, he is sick and the board pairs with the 9 playin as both our kickers...chop it up...He had A4o
Very next hand, im still steamin...get AKh raise to $7 with what..7 callers? lol Ace hits the board with 2 clubs, checks all the way to me, I move all in for like $76 bucks Jeff calls me again with A4o again! this time my K plays and I double up and now sittin with a small profit!
Run it up a lil and cash out with $220 for the night. Nothing Big, but its a change of pace from losing!
Todays is a day of rest...Game on for Tomorrow night's Pink Game!

Gamboooool
Blah...My Saturday Tourney/Ring game didn't get off the ground...so I pretty much slept the whole day, bored out my mind...Wasn't a bad thing that I had to deal the 2nd shift at the Fish Tank on Sunday...Was a chance it was going to be 2 tables and I was gonna deal the must move table...
Anyway, watched the action at the main table till it was my shift to deal...Bert actually got tired early and said I can jump in the box early..sweet...
Wasn't alot of hands that come to mind, cept the end of the night when they decided to end the night with some REAL GAMBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL.
Started out cause someone had un even chip stacks and said, lets just stick it in the middle and run it out...I said go for it, I'll deal it out 7-Card stud style and best hand wins...So everyone decided to do it Big Jay takes it down...Did it one more time cept' they called for it Holdem...Dealt them all in and yup, Big Jay takes it down again and decides thats it...
That wasn't it for Jeff and Alex...That wasn't enough, "Stick $200 in the pot," says Alex. Jeff agrees quickly after I push the button to him...Big Jay wants to play so bad, but he can't get his balls in there...OK, Its $400 in the pot..part cash, part chips..."Dealem....Fast," said Alex. Boom, King High takes it down...Double or nothing...Jeff agrees, Steve says its a silly game and they need to cut him a rake if they want to continue...$10 bucks for every $200 taht goes in that pot...hahahaa They agree with out hesitation..not to mention they tippin me cash at this point, so I kinda egg on the betting and tryin to get them to stick more in the pot.
Jeff took down like 4 in a row and Alex is stuck waist deep now...$500 and foreal, last hand...I count out $500 and tell Jeff, stick it in there, its your button...OK...its $1000 preflop...Pair of 8s with a J kicker takes down this huge pot...I'm laughin my ass off at the action, Steve and Devin can't believe the action...Action went on till yup...Jeff was wiped out....Craziness at the Fish Tank..If you ask me....Its the Chips....Or is it the Dealer...Lets see who puts up there keys tonight at Jeff's game...then I'll be convinced....its the dealer eggin them on :)

What a Week...
Well, I haven't been able to update this the whole week, well its been a pretty hectic week this week...
TUESDAY - Jeff's B.'s Laurel Game
Went over to deal his game and didn't deal too long, Shawn was in attendance after a long time from seeing him...he rode with Big John. The regulars were also there. It was a pretty decent game...with alot of potential as long as his playes still come out...it will take a little more word of mouth from MD-Poker players to start makin it out.
I couldn't deal the whole night, my allergies started actin up real bad for some reason..I took medicine and it didn't work out as well as the previous weeks...I ended up callin it a night at 2AM and cabbed it home from Laurel..wow...but I felt like shit and couldn't deal well...what can you do? Main reason I hate cats...I'll be more prepared next game and see how it works out...same thing happened at Rob's game, allergies were actin out of control for some reason...
WEDNESDAY - THE DONKEY CORAL
Went over to Travis' and Noelle's Wednesday game. It wasn't a big turn out, actually we had 4 players show up so Noelle jumped in the game..."Hey Guy's, come over and play poker" Heh...We played maybe 40 minutes...not more than 1 hour...and Noelle is sittin with 80% of the money on the table. I shipped Big Jay 1/3 of my stack when he rivers broadway and I flopped top 2 pair makin me check on the turn cause of 3 clubs...Jay bets out on the river, and I called like a donkey and paid his ass off...
Already pissed off I did that, I called a $15 raise from Bessman...Heh, Its Bessman..why not...with 9Jo...all 5 of us called the bet...Flop comes out 9J3, Jay checks, I push, Noelle raises to $125, Jeeef folds, Bessman, thinks for like 5 minutes and Travis is beggin him to fold indirectly tryin not to break the game...Bessman calls...We both ship Noelle our stack and thats the end of the game...Bessman had AA, Noelle flopped a set of 9s.
I say, so the game won't die, and we can play some poker, lets just play Dealers choice...$2-$4 and we played that till 7AM when Rick arrived at the game a little after 11PM.
FRIDAY - ROUNDED 2 DIFFERENT GAMES
Been a while since I played over Big Chris House with the Crew...He has a weekly get togethe will all my boys on Fridays and Sundays and play $1-$1 NL...Fridays I was dealing Bert's Game in Wheaton for a while, then I have my Pink Game on the following Fridays...Sundays, There aint no way gettin me to give up Sundays Dealing job at the Fish Tank...Hell no...
So I end up going over Chris' house with Kenny. I got in for a meatball and fortunately, I didn't have to play Heinz Poker! I had a great time playing with them..avoided some nasty suck outs...Frank did give me one chasin a gutshot when im bettin it all the way through...I just happen to check the river cause I wasn't feelin right about it and behold...he hits his straight...Why didn't he bet the river...I have no clue, but as I have learned...Don't coach the players...Reymond fed me money and I sucked out a couple hands, well maybe a little more than a couple hands...a couple 2 outers, some 3 outers lol...but thats cause I was able to get cards very cheap compared to the size of the pot...So its not my fault they keep it cheap for me to draw out on them LOL.
D is talkin about callin it a night at 3AM and Rick hit me up cause he had been sleep all day...So I tell him there is a $1-$2 NL Game in College Park...Ankur's Game...He spoke to me this week about dealing his game so he asked me to come out and check his game out...I didn't want to stand the crew up so me and rick made it out about 3:30AM over to his game...we were sat down right away...They played decently...The dealers are OK, but again, not to sound so conceited, but I believe I am a way better dealer than what I saw there...So yeah, I think I would love to take a dealing spot over there, cause I think I can make some good tips over there...I dealt maybe 1 hour over there to break Christian and give Ankur a chance to see how I dealt...He didn't say anything to me there, but I will give him a call this week to see whats up with dealing his game...I would love to get in the box every other Friday from my Pink game...They were decent tippers from the remaining players from the night before...
I busted out when Allan tried to make a move on me...I had A4o and he raises to $15...I know he is still steaming from a couple hands before...when we got there, Allan was sittin with way over $1K and next thing you know, he was down to $300 some odd dollars...He keeps sayin he isn't upset, but if that was me, im upset, specially he called 30 minutes to get up from the seat...they have a 30 minute rule over there...Anyway, he makes it $15 to go and I know he doesn't have shit...so I make the call to see the flop KA3(2 diamonds)...3 players in the hand and it was checked to me and I make it $17 to go...Allan raises me quick to $60...and Abner folds, I think about it..and say really, he is stiff as a board..usually he speaks when he raises but this one time he is stiff as a board, like a statue...that was odd to me after playing with him for the past 4 hours...I let him know I think I have you beat, I'm all in for the remaining $75 bucks I have...he insta calls...Turn is a black 4, River brings a diamond...I have 2 pair, Ace-4, Allan..."I have a flush" what? Q5d...wtf...I should've re-popped him preflop like I wanted to but wanted to see the flop to make sure It was a decent flop to stick my money in there, i wanted to at least catch a pair instead of pushin with Ace high...specially with a 4 kicker....its 7AM and really not gonna re-buy..game over..I had a good time, shake everyone's hand, glad to meet them...Allan says some kind words to me when we leave, He then says he was just tryin to make a move..so my read was right all along...Oh well...I definately would not mind playing again with them...
Its Sunday and I'm dealing Steve's game tonight, there has been alot of Hype this week and alot of berating back and forth from Pops, Redpit, Big Jay so its a must attend game...game should be big this week with 2 tables runnin so I'll be dealing the must move table till my shift for the main table...Should be makin some good money tonight...
Oh yeah...I'm getting ghost this month as I have other obligations to meet this month...I will still be dealing the games during the weeks, so for the next month, they will be dealer stories from the box instead of the other side of the table...the Player's Side.....Should be all well though, gives me a month break from playing and hopefully shakin the rest of the bad luck, bad karma out of me and come back strong with some good well deserved 1K winnings! I should be back in time for the Borgata Open and the United States Poker Championship events comin up the next coming months...

Pops Game Canceled - What To Do Now??? Weekend Recap...
We all knew Pops wasn't going to be able to have a game this past Saturday so Travis and Noelle decided to try and run a Pot Limit Holdem Game...They couldn't get enough interest so they just flat out cancelled and played Spades for the Night, I talked to Keenan and he said the A/C was broke, so I decided to find somethin else to do for the night...
Rick ended up givin me a call and I mentioned that Rob was having a game in Odenton...So we decide to head down there to play, Rick didn't have to wait for a seat, but I did...so I pretty much sat outside on the porch while they played cause I was having my allergies act up and felt uncomfortable that whole night, next time I know to bring my allergy medicine, but that never affected me before, not as bad as it did Saturday Night...
Rick ended up doubling up with KK and he came outside on the porch to smoke a cigarette. He mentions We should go to Atlantic City..and I was like, yeah we really should...game was soft not so much money on the table, my allergies actin up..shit we are in Odenton, we are half way to AC already (not really, just a joke that we are far up B/W Parkway and close to 95 to Baltimore that we might as well just go the whole way up) He is now seroiusly considering it but don't want the table to think he just hit and ran...Doubt they would cause he only is now up a little over a meatball and there was still 3 people waitin to get in the game...After about 20 minutes of thinking...he cashes out and we head up to AC...
THE SICKEST DISPLAY OF BEING BRUTALLY MURDERED AT THE TABLE
We get to the Trop around 1:30 AM and get sat at the same table...I ask for a table change when seat opens up at another table...Table had 1 big stack over $600 then players ended up goin broke and others left....well all the drunk fish left the table and table breaks, we want to be sat at a full table...Me and this guy I see at the trop get sat at the same table...Asian guy in seat one had a nice chip stack...
I run my stack up somethin small...wasn't really getting some good hands or just missing the flop totally....heh, I'm in the cut off with 67o and decide to limp in for $2 bucks...Flop comes 589r and gets bet out for $15, 2 callers before me and I stick $45 on top to make it $60 to see the turn...seat 1 calls and we are heads up cause the other guy folds...Turn brings a Jh...Nice card for me...I tell the guy I have to stick $100 in there and leaves me with a little under $60 bucks...Ask the dealer to keep it clean and not pair the board or stick a heart out there now...Heh...he sticks an 8h out there...lol That sucked...I shove the rest of my money in there and he calls and flips over 55 I show my flopped straight and end up a lil upset...I rebuy another $200...
I'm tilted a lil bit and get in another hand with seat 1...he is taunting me to come on...wow...what do you know...I flopped trip Aces with 2 diamonds on the board...we are heads up again...Turn came a black card not pairing the board...i bet out again, and he calls...wasn't going crazy with it cause I'm scared of the river and his diamond draw gettin there...river brings a diamond of non pairing card...I check, he bets and I fold and muck my cards disgusted..he shows me Q5d for the flush...he rivered me again...now im fuckin gettin mad....i add on another $100...
New guy sits in seat one and we joke about that seat...I get KK and can't believe they hold up and I stack the guy in seat one! I'm lookin alot better and a $2-$5 game breaks and dude sits in seat 10 next to me...sucks he couldn't sit with his whole stack, when he should be allowed too...but he didn't sweat it and left it alone...he was cool...he was a lil shit faced and he actually loosened up the table to be a little more friendly and now we are all joking around...Rick ends up moving to my table...Our table became live all of a sudden and still having good action! I'm not tilted any more...playing heinz poker now tryin to get back my original buy in so I can call it a night...check the time and its 40 minutes past my 8 hour rule, but I did say it would be 8-10 hours so decided to play the 10 hours...now its all downhill from here...I HAVE TO BE ABLE TO FOLLOW MY RULES!!
Guy that has been playing all night was moved to my table cause his table broke, he brings over 4 racks of red with 1 row full of green and a couple loose chips...whoa...time to double up...some players complain its a $1-$2 game and he is now going to be pushin us around...heh, I don't mind him sittin with it....but didnt know he had a horse shoe planted up his ass...uh oh, i get dealt AA and decide to raise it up to $15 to go...5 callers...yeah, my Aces are shit now....I warned everyone regardless what the flop is im shovin my stack in the middle...flop came 693r..nice, i push, everone folds cept for the 4-rack guy...he calls....turn comes 6, river 7...he flips over 67o wow...i get up and take a walk and sit back down with another $200 bucks...I get it with 4 rack guy again when I had KT of clubs and 2 clubs hit the flop, 3 players...turn brough another club, i check it gets bet out to $15, 4Rack guy calls, I make it $60 to go, Original bettor thinks and folds, of course 4 rack guy calls the raise...River...........5 clubs...mother fucker....I check it, and he bets out $100....I think, show my King High Flush and folds...table couldn't believe it and said they would've called in an instant...I trust my instincts and say he has the Ace of Clubs...he hung around with top pair with the club re-draw on the turn...i asked him not to show it to me....and again I die by the river...This table is brutal to me...
What put me out the game i had A7o and limped in...caught an Ace on the flop and bet it out...got 2 callers....including the 4 rack guy...Flop was A56...turn came a 7 givin me 2 pair...I pushed all in, other guy calls, 4 rack guy calls also...I flip my 2 pair over, the other guy caught 2 pair with the 56...4 rack guy has...you guessed it....34 for the straight...heh i got outs...come on Ace or 7...not for me though....his straight holds up and im ready to go home....I gotta deal Steve's game at 11:00PM so I just go straight to his house and chill out till its my shift...
I offered to share the Box with Travis this time around...and watchin him deal, I wanted to play...maybe I can shake some of this bad luck off and make a lil money that the game looked a little sane than it was earlier...so I sat in the game at 1AM with $200 bucks...I was in the UTG with 22 and limped...it was limped around and the SB makes it $15 to go...I call along with someone else...3 players and flop came out A29r...Dude checks blind, I check other guy checks, SB decides to check dark again and turn came out somethin like an 8..nothin scary...so I bet out $35, folds around to SB and he raises me $60 more on top...I push, he insta-calls...flips over AA for a set of Aces...Set over Set...That is real fun! I ship him my whole stack and look at the time its 1:20 AM....wow....its almost my turn to deal again....Who knew the shitty luck from AC will follow me to Steve's $1-$3 NL game...Oh well....guess the Poker gods are still makin me suffer from bad karma...so I seriously doubt I will be playing Wednesday...but who knows...I might feel a little better by then............
Rick ended up givin me a call and I mentioned that Rob was having a game in Odenton...So we decide to head down there to play, Rick didn't have to wait for a seat, but I did...so I pretty much sat outside on the porch while they played cause I was having my allergies act up and felt uncomfortable that whole night, next time I know to bring my allergy medicine, but that never affected me before, not as bad as it did Saturday Night...

Guy that has been playing all night was moved to my table cause his table broke, he brings over 4 racks of red with 1 row full of green and a couple loose chips...whoa...time to double up...some players complain its a $1-$2 game and he is now going to be pushin us around...heh, I don't mind him sittin with it....but didnt know he had a horse shoe planted up his ass...uh oh, i get dealt AA and decide to raise it up to $15 to go...5 callers...yeah, my Aces are shit now....I warned everyone regardless what the flop is im shovin my stack in the middle...flop came 693r..nice, i push, everone folds cept for the 4-rack guy...he calls....turn comes 6, river 7...he flips over 67o wow...i get up and take a walk and sit back down with another $200 bucks...I get it with 4 rack guy again when I had KT of clubs and 2 clubs hit the flop, 3 players...turn brough another club, i check it gets bet out to $15, 4Rack guy calls, I make it $60 to go, Original bettor thinks and folds, of course 4 rack guy calls the raise...River...........5 clubs...mother fucker....I check it, and he bets out $100....I think, show my King High Flush and folds...table couldn't believe it and said they would've called in an instant...I trust my instincts and say he has the Ace of Clubs...he hung around with top pair with the club re-draw on the turn...i asked him not to show it to me....and again I die by the river...This table is brutal to me...
What put me out the game i had A7o and limped in...caught an Ace on the flop and bet it out...got 2 callers....including the 4 rack guy...Flop was A56...turn came a 7 givin me 2 pair...I pushed all in, other guy calls, 4 rack guy calls also...I flip my 2 pair over, the other guy caught 2 pair with the 56...4 rack guy has...you guessed it....34 for the straight...heh i got outs...come on Ace or 7...not for me though....his straight holds up and im ready to go home....I gotta deal Steve's game at 11:00PM so I just go straight to his house and chill out till its my shift...
I offered to share the Box with Travis this time around...and watchin him deal, I wanted to play...maybe I can shake some of this bad luck off and make a lil money that the game looked a little sane than it was earlier...so I sat in the game at 1AM with $200 bucks...I was in the UTG with 22 and limped...it was limped around and the SB makes it $15 to go...I call along with someone else...3 players and flop came out A29r...Dude checks blind, I check other guy checks, SB decides to check dark again and turn came out somethin like an 8..nothin scary...so I bet out $35, folds around to SB and he raises me $60 more on top...I push, he insta-calls...flips over AA for a set of Aces...Set over Set...That is real fun! I ship him my whole stack and look at the time its 1:20 AM....wow....its almost my turn to deal again....Who knew the shitty luck from AC will follow me to Steve's $1-$3 NL game...Oh well....guess the Poker gods are still makin me suffer from bad karma...so I seriously doubt I will be playing Wednesday...but who knows...I might feel a little better by then............
Friday Night's 1st Pink Chip Game
Yes! The game went well! I had a pretty long wait list getting the last player in the game around 4AM! If you don't know, Friday Night I hosted the First Pink chip game within our MD Circuit of Home games! We played a 2-way 7-Card Stud & Omaha H/L Game with a Full kill. We didn't play the usual $7.50/$15 game like you do at the Trop...I lowered the limits to ensure a fun game with out everyone going broke within 1 hour...We did a 3 bet structure $2.50/$5/$7.50 and with the full kill made the game $5/$10/$15. It was alot of fun and all had a great time! I got in the game after all the wait list players got in and the game ran till about 10AM. Luckily for me, I only lost $12 bucks in the game after takin my $200 buy in down to my last $45 bucks at one point!
I am still learning how to play Omaha and 7-Card stud H/L 8OB so this is the perfect game for myself as well all the players wanting to learn the game better with a lower limit betting structure and still make some decent money and have a real good time!
I can't wait for the next Pink Chip Game!

I Can Suck Out Too!
Went over to the Donkey Coral last night and did pretty well...at least for the first part of the game. I went over there with the intentions of stickin to my new rule...only play 8 hour sessions and thats what I did!
Like I said, I did pretty well the first part of the game, I was catchin cards...and hands I threw away were getting there, so I decided to play a little looser than normal...
Heh, I looked down to my revised hand and raised to $7 in mid position. Bunch of callers, and flop came out 24Q..Boom...2 pair...i bet it out..."E bet" everyone folded cept Super Dave who just smooth calls me...Turn brought an A and I bet out another $35, he calls, River brought me a duece to fill up...I bet out $Niffty and he folds...show my duece-four and rake in the pot...
I got in the middle of a raising war between I think it was Pops and Keenan when I had A4s and flop came out 2 spades, Keenan bet out $19 on the flop, I call, and Pops makes it $60 total...Keenan calls fast, I fold...of course my spade comes out...Blah....Cause of that...I'm raising my next suited cards I get...
Hammer time...of hearts that is...3 limpers, I raise to $7 and get callers...Flop came out Kh7sTh and Nishant bets out $30...I ask how much he has left, he only has $35 behind after his bet, so I put him all in, He calls and flips over 2 pair KT, ok you win...for now....Turn came 3d, River brought me the heart to hit my hammer flushy..."Hammer Time Sir" ship me the pot...he tells me he can't believe I did that...and rebuys after he goes out to smoke a Cigarette.
So I got mixed up in a pot With Pops and Pdoggie...Pops raised it to $10 to go..everyone folds and Pdoggie flat bangs it for 60 total...Yeah I didn't even know Pops raised it to $10...but when I looked down to my cards, I woke up to JJ...I decide to Min raise him to get us heads up..."$120 to go" Pops asks me if I'm serious..and shoves his rebuy in there...Its another $80 for the even $200 he bought in with..."I can't fold here Pops, I call" He flips over AA really fast...so I decide to flip over my JJ and I have no clue what Pdoggie had...All I know is that the flop was low cards...turn was still shitty...River brought me a Jack...OOOPS...SLURRRRP.....Pops berated me with his regular tantrums its funny cause it usually to someone else..but last night, I caught it from him...I usually never catch it...They blamed the fact he turned his cards over before the flop came out is why he lost the hand...Heh...makes sense I guess...I turned my cards over to show I was behind and wasn't just doing that with any bullshit hand...
After that, I just went card dead...I called for a medic cause my stack need stictches, 3:30AM is creepin slowly but surely and I end up cashing out with a small profit...
That broke the game, so I ended up dealing the Dealers Choice Game till early morning and Rick had to go so we called it a night...early in the mornin that is...
Friday Night will be my first "Pink Chip" game..same as the $3-$6 game, 'cept now we using nothin but Pink Chips...if you been to the Trop, you know the famous Pink Game up there!
Now I'm thinkin maybe my bad karma is gone, I've been good the past 3 weeks...maybe I'm seeing the light at the end of the tunnel now...I'm hoping its clearing for me...We shall see how the next few days come down too......
