Weeeeeeeeeeeee!!!

Okay. Monday morning. Got back from OK, Sunday at around 2 am. I am now freshly charged (5am) and through with being in zombie mode. How did Winstar go you say?? BAHAHAHA!!! Joe Joe did work!

We left here around 11am Friday morning, praying to God we didnt hit Dallas traffic around 3-5pm. Right before we left, I thought it would be a good idea to smash some codine cough syrup...just for the simple fact to help put me out for that 6 hr drive. On top of that, I had eaten a PB and banana sandwich, and washed it down with a nice tall glass of milk. Yeah, starting to sound like a really bad mix huh?

We get in on the road, stop and get gas, seeds, drinks...We dont even make it to Flatwoods exit and I have to hurl. LMAO. Apparently the OG syrup doesnt take kind to my belly. It came up looking like Strwberry Nesquick...with some nanna's mixed in. Easy was just laughin away at my expense as well. Its all good...I would have laughed at myself as well.

After the puke had sub-sided...I passed out. Woke up almost out of Dallas. That was fucking great. So glad I slept through all that crap. Cruised alittle bit more and made our Denton exit. (We have a buddy that lives there...think i might have stated that before...if not...boom..bless you with knowledge) We all just hung around the apt for a minute, then got changed and ready to make the 45 min drive into OK.

When we pulled into the casino parking lot, it was like the first time seing it all over. WOW!!!! This place was under construction when I came the first time. Now, its finished...and it is fucking ENORMOUS! I think they said its the 2nd biggest casino (length wize). The theme is...well...the world! They have like 12 different parts of the world (Rome, Venice, London, etc. etc. ) All over the casino. It is very, VERY sharp inside. The only reason you go into the actually casino part would be for table games, and food...which btw they have some badass places to get the grub on. My fav is Zahrs. Its an Italian join...great fried pickles!

As for the poker room. Well, the hallway that connects the poker room to the rest of the casino is under construction, so you actually get to park right by the old Emergency exit and walk right in to the lounge area, swing the corner and BOOM...you are right there by the counter. That place is something else. I think they had 12 1/2 , 8 2/5's, and the High stakes area had 2 5/10's...all had HUGE stacks. It was a great feeling. Was ready to do work instantly.

We finally catch a seat at 1/2. Granted this isnt the 5/10 that I wanted to play, but I really didnt want to go sit with 1k and have the rest at like 4-5k. I just wasnt ready to risk that much first day here. Not to mention i was still tired as piss.

Eric and I get sat at the same table. He sits in 3, me in 4. Couple of orbits go by and I get 7h-3h 2nd to act. I make it $8...gets to Button, (Ive played with this guy in Kinder before. Young asian/american dude. Really ABC style.) He makes it $20. Why hello there Big Pair. I call you. Flop comes 4s-5h-4h...YESSSS...hahah...daddy likes. I check with the intent of check raising all in...without a doubt. He could have JJ or QQ and might have it in his blood to dump em, or if not...hey, its a race...im down. He bets pot, I shove, he calls. Turn is dud...6h on river...straight flush...Shizzip it. Oh...he had to black AA. duhhhhh

So, first day is looking damn good. That was the only nasty luckbox type shit that happen the rest of the day. The rest was just me murking the table. I had dead on reads, and made some really huge plays. One hand was with a new guy that showed up. Had an image of being the table prick. Was a solid player from what I could tell.
I get AQh and make it $10. He calls...HU to flop. Comes 10 high. I make it $14...yeah, fucked up. It was a weak C-bet and I even caught myself looking a bit noobish putting the bet in there. Well he raises me. I really put him on making a read here and not having a hand. I float. Turn doesnt help...nor makes a scary board. I check. He bets 1/2 pot. Ok...Now I think he might have A10...maybe JJ. He starts to make me believe he has something now. I cant give up just yet. If a river brings a Hob-goblin...im pulling the trigger. I call...river is Ks. I take about 5 sec. "Im all in." He tanks...asks if im really that Kamikazee with AK. I dont say a word..he folds QQ face up. Guy next to me tells him good fold...I decide to show it. "Sheah, good fold huh". LOL . Made some more good reads. Sniffed out weak bets. Was a great 1st day.

We leave around 2am. Get back to the apt. Brush the teefs and hit the floor old school style. Easy had the couch...fucker called it as soon as we walked in. Bastard!
Slept till aournd 10am. Woke up and put on some American Gangster while everyone took their time to wake up. Took a shower and changed clothes. Felt amazing to have a fresh shower. Not to mention, well...does anyone else know what Im talkinb about here. Most apts and hotels water makes you all sticky after you shower. Well his didnt!!! That was epic. SCORE!!!

We decide on Hooters for lunch. Have the only girl in there that looked like they felt sorry for her at the interview as our waitress. Got some more fried pickles and 10 wings. She came and sat by Easy tryin to do the flirt-to get tipped routine. Basically what came out of that was she admitted to being hooked on aderals for days at a time and liked to party. LOL. Dirty skeeze...go get me some more sweet tea!!!

We roll back to winstar. Walk in, name on list...yada yada yada. Get seated at a new table. Easy sits as well. Across the table this time. We tie into a couple of hands. Cant check em down either due to others in the hand. Was kind of aggrivating, cause niether one of us where wanting to fuck up each others action. Wasnt too bad tho. I get down to about $120. I limp with 85c. Flop comes 10h-8s-4h. I check, as do the other 2 players. Turn is 5d. I bet pot...they both call. Yuk....until the 5h hits the river. Flush arrives, as does my full. I hollywood...shove for value..both call. Shizzip it again. Now we are in the plus area! NICE!

I guess today was ganna be the day to bluff. Thats pretty much all I did. Got in a hand with a young guy to my right. Limped with 76o. Flop was Q22. I take that back...i was in BB. I check... he leads out. Okay. You were UTG. You might have a Q..maybe you were sneaky with KK or AA hoping to get raise preflop so you could pop it then. Either way...im in BB and there was no raise pre...so I can very well represent a 2. I call. Turn is another Q. I check. He bets pot. OKAY....ahem ahem.
I just dont see you, well some good players might, betting the Q here. If I called you on the flop you can very well put me on a full by now. So lets say you do have a Q...why not check and let me hang myself on river. Keep in mind, this is still noobs. I would think twice here against diff apponents. I call. River is crap. I bet 80. He dumps it. I was waiting to get the pot raked before I mucked and some guy asked to see the Q or 2. I told em to pick one. He picked the 7. Guy that I was in the hand with was like WTF...pocket 7's. I told him to flip the other over if he liked. When he saw it...he left. :)

Another hand. Had 10-7 diamonds i believe. In the pot with one other old school. Flop is 9-8-7 with 2 hearts. I bet, he calls...eeeesh. Turn is crap. I bet again. He calls again...damnit. Bout to pump the breaks I guess. River is 5c. So on this board is a 4 card straight and a backdoor club flush. I check...old school stares at the board and reaches...goes to bet and stops, puts its all in. I tanked...made a read...put him on busted flush. I call. He had 10-4. same straight draw as me...that will work too. Good read Joe Joe.

Bnch of other nasty shit happened....slow played AA with a board of 99Q-5-9. Got all his chips with my 9's full vs his 9's full of Q.

Then the icing if you will...

I get 64h. UTG...I make it $10...Gets back to the other big stack. we both have around 5ish...maybe close to 6 a piece. He raises from BB to $35. I call.
Flop is 3-5-10 rainbow. Uh oh...sneaky time. He bets 3/4 pot. I call. Turn is money maker. 7s...10 was a spade to. He bets pot...I shove. I really like to shove right here. The table knows me as a gambler, so I might have picked up a flush draw here. He tanks...for a LONG time. I put my head down. Tried as hard as I could to look like I was bluffing. Wasnt working...he started making comments of I must have a set. When he said that, I knew he was about to fold. I had to do something..Fast.

"Well, I guess if you had AA or KK you would have snapped called." That was it...that got him. "So your saying KK are good?" I didnt say yes, I didnt say no either...I just looked at the board like I might have missed something. Couple of seconds went by. "So you really dont have a set?". "I promise, I do not have a set."

"Well, I hope not...I call."

I flipped over the nut straight, and he showed his 2 red AA.

BOOM.

He could not believe that someone raised with, and called a reraise with 64 suited. I did like the guy...but hey, it poker.

That really summed the trip up. I ran the game over. Made good reads, good plays, in good spots.

We left to go back to Louisiana straight after the session. Wasnt a bad drive home. Was just glad to be back. Well I guess thats enough for now.

Later peoples.
