Just lost about $350 on one hand.. 15 outs on the flop, 21 outs on the turn.. Brick, brick.. He wins with King high.. Fucking Brutal! Still winning a little though.. Gotta keep your head up!

Up somewhere around a grand now.. Nice pot with KK.. Scarey flop though..
Nice pot with 6-7.. Top two.. Luckily the big check raise worked.. Didn't really want to commit that much with that hand..
Decent pot with AK with King on the river..
It hasn't been exactly easy, but making some hands and a little money

Up $225 right now.. Mostly on one hand.. Bottom set.. Which I almost mucked on the flop

On my way to Harrahs New Orleans.. I'll try to update

I'm done

And that's it. That's about as shitty as they come... 96% favorite on the flop.. 90% on the turn... 0% on the river. I just called his check-raise on the flop to make sure that he put the last 1200 in the the turn. Incase he was totally bluffing. But I can't dodge the dreaded 4-outer with 1 card to come. Oh well, better luck next time.. Till then.. later

Just caught AA. Everyone folds to me on the button.. I 3x and blinds muck.. Unreal.. Where's the 3bet from K-10 in the SB?

Won a nice one on first hand back from break.. Blinds 50/100.. In MP with 66.. EP raises to 250.. I call.. Folds around.. Flop Kh7c10d. He checks, I check.. Turn Kd he checks, I bet 300. He shoves for 1250.. I call.. He shows AQ.. River brick

At first hour break.. Chip stack- 2950.. average is 3700.. Having caught anything.. AJo once

wednesday 250K

Folds around to button.. button raises 3x.. SB folds.. I call out of the BB with 3c7c..
Flop 3d7d5c.. I check.. PFR bets 80. I check-raise to 240, he calls.
Turn Js.. I bet 400.. he calls
River 10.. I check, he ponders.... then checks

I win.. A large river bet from him would have been tough.. I really didn't like the turn or river.. as i thought he may have an over-pair when he called my flop check-raise...

was up to 3,640.. but just gave most back on a hand I could have mucked preflop.. at 3,270.. only a few minutes into the tournament

Hello Poker World

Hey guys. I haven't written a post in ages! Mainly because I haven't played much poker lately. My girlfriend and I are in the middle of buying a house right now. We've been at it for a while now. So I took all my cash and deposited it in the bank. Banks/Government are not exactly giving away money at the moment. I played at Shorty's about a month ago. I lost $420. I don't think I played a hand.. I just spewed away money for a while. I played at Harrah's Friday. I lost $123. I was stuck about $1400 though, so consider that a win. I lost a race that night that woulda put me winning a bunch, but I'm too fat to win races. I decided to play a little online tonight for the first time in months. I don't play many tournaments. And when I do score in one, I always say, "I need to try more tournaments." That usually leads me to play 1 or 2 tournaments immediately, and then stop. So tonight I'm gonna try a bigger online tourney. I'm gonna play the $300+$30 Wednesday Quarter Million on Stars. I'll post on here as I go along. Not as much for anyone's satisfaction, but to keep me from being bored.. it starts in 33 minutes.. Wish me Luck
