Driving up to Four Winds Casino at 8pm after taking a shower and changing into cool threads. Get there an hour later and hit Wendy's and then the e-tables there. Buy in for a cool $500 at the 1/2 $500 max 100 min table. Bunch of older gentleman there and I decided during the drive out there that I was going to raise my first 5 hands to build a image that I'm a loose aggressive kid. Took those down with no problems, a couple times I had to do a continuation bet to take it down on the flop. So I got what I wanted and made 20bucks in the works, so far so good. Then I tightened up a little bit got some good aq,aj,kq,kj opened and never connected. Had to let my hand go. I built up a reputation that I could easily exploit if I had ran into some hands, but with my current run of sub-par hands I put myself in a tough spot.
Players were going to call me a little lighter, and maybe even take a couple of shots at bluffing me with missed draws or nothing trying to put me in my place. I wasn't really ready to play this style without having a run of cards. I did make a preflop raise with aks utg, got the guy who i stole from twice off the bat and who was coming after me recently. Flop kq8, I check he bets 25 in a 24 pot, check turn which is q i check he bets 25 i call. River is a 3 blank no flush. i check he bets out 75, I tank for a minute, think about his line and think my tptk is good call it down and he has aj and i get a nice pot.
After that i coast a little more, limp a lot and call with implied odds with suited connectors and one off connectors. suited connectors were at a premium along with pp's. I might of had 15 pp's the entire weekend, and i had a set twice out of them.
Little later i'm still a little up, kk, raise 5.5x bb (std at the table) 4 callers ace and flush draw on the board. check/fold. Got Rockets alittle while before them before the table std was higher, i raised to six utg, no action. SWEET aces one time wins. Played KK later in the day another 50 pot 4 players, another ace flops and i let go.
Big hand against a regular "donkey with the Nutz" he won a bb jacket or won the hand for 25k. SOlid lag overall, i respected his game for the most part. Had aa in bb, he was sb. Raise to 7x, I call along with 3 others. Flop is k79, I raise to 20 he bumps it 40 more, i think and know i'm up against proably tptk or weak two pair. Turn is an ace, he pushed and i snap call. he yells at me for a while and I scoop the pot as he has no outs. Little later playing some 1/2 plo 6 handed I have AcAh5h2D, long story short, guy had a 100 behind 70 by the flop I call and hit runner runner flush vs his two pair.
