Been a LOOOONNNNNGGGGG time since my last post! I decided to take last Friday off & head up to Maryland Live! for a bit of the pokers. I was pleased with the result, although it felt like an up & down session for the majority of the day. In my last hour, I was able to pick off a bluff with an overpair for most of my profit:
Raise $15 from the BTN after 3-4 limpers with T T. One caller and we see a pretty blank flop:
8 6 2 - 2 clubs. I cbet $20 and the seemingly noob flats. I had seen him bet and bet big to get people off their hands in the past (including me - K high board & I have AA, K turn and he open shoves $200 which I fold). Turn is another 2. I'm never putting him on a 2x here, but he leads for $60 and I think and flat. River is a complete blank and he shoves $160 remaining. I sit & contemplate... eventually talking myself into calling. He shows AK & I scoop. Whhheeeee!!!! Easy game.
Anyway, I've been busy with school, work, family, etc. There's been little to no time for poker in my life right now. Oh well... I did get a new baby:
It's a Porsche Boxster S! I've always wanted a Boxster ever since they came out in 1997 - and finally found the one I wanted! I had been looking for around 6 months prior to finding this one... This car just completes my eccentric driveway of cars; I now have a:
Toyota Sienna (for the kiddies to be comfortable)
Nissan Leaf (for the commute back & forth to work)
Porsche Boxster (for the weekends)
YIPPEEEE!
