Weekend Recap
Friday night I played at Nine Poker, looking for those little fishies to finally pay me off. And they did! I was running over a $3/6 table for a good two hours. Love those maniacs and calling stations when you can find them. The deck was slapping me in the face, too, which always helps. I pulled about 40 BB in that session.
Gave back about 25 BB of it on Saturday, of course. I had a cookout with my neighbor Bubba, and we slogged down quite a few beers. After he left I headed for my computer. I learned long ago that I should stick to micro-limits and freerolls when drunk, but I decided I could take these fish two nights in a row, even drunk. Well, I paid for that rationalization!
By the time I figured out I should be in a freeroll, it was late. I started one at Pitbull poker anyways. I was having a great tournament, and when the bubble burst I was second. The play was pretty tight, and it seemed to be taking forever. It was late, and my head was nodding. Sitting second with 17 players left I just stopped. I couldn't take it any longer, and I went to bed. When I checked in the morning I saw that I'd placed fifth.
I also played a $25 NL table while I was in that freeroll. I sat with $17, and early on I got stacked to $3 when my KK got outdrawn. I built it back up to $17, and then my AA got beat by 97o and I was back to $4. Darn those premium hands!
Sunday was the BullsBetting bounty Tournament at PitBull. Only 10 of us played, but it was fun. I got knocked out when my AK failed to hit vs QQ all-in pre-flop. I think I was 7th of 10. Allus was the big winner - Congrats!
