Last week i want play a tourney i a casino for 50 € + 5 but on this day they play only cash game and the blinds are 2 / 4 € minimum buy in 100 €.I want to go home but i want play live poker these day.I know in the casino are many donkeys and fishes so i hope i get good cards.I make a buy in from 100 € on the first hand in big blind i get KQ os.It was a full table so i check.4 players in the pot on flop K 7 8 rainbow.I bet pot one player small blind called turn A. S**t.But he checked and River the Q yiipee 2 pair he checked i bet 20 he called 50 € in the first hand. Hand 2 AJ suited what for a day i bet 16 € 2 player call Flop J 3 8 rainbow I bet 30 € and show my cards a nice begin i double up my stack in 2 hands. The next 30 minutes i pay only blind when i had QJ or Qt anybody raised and i fold my cards.On my left is a young guy maybe 20 years with a stack from 1200€.He called every hand or raise but win only one hand in the half hour and everytime he muck this cards.A nice fish i think and i wait for good cards to call or re-raise him he lost maybe 200€ in 30 minutes. My stack is 160 € the blinds are very high for my stack so i think when i down to 150€ i leave the table to go home. Nice i have AA a tight player raised to 20 i re-raise to 60 he fold Next hand AA very very nice and the same colour A in Spade and Diamond. OK here we go raise to 20 call from the young guy with the big stack all others fold in pot maybe 60 € Flop 6 8 9 2 diamonds i bet 40 he make a re-raise to 90€ S**T got he donkey 10-7 or what. i have not a good feeling but the pot is to great and he is a donkey so i go all in he called Turn A River 8 Full House YES and he muck this cards I wait 3 hands and leave the table and go home with 370 € win 270 in 1 hour A very beautyful day
Oh i forget a hand the player on my right side he had a stack maybe 130-140 € this hand is very funny.A player make a raise to 38 € he have maybe 90€ he was very thight lost a big hand with AK.Play only strong hands ok he make a raise and the player on my right called with Q5 he win agaist 99 Q5 on flop. I must smile he risk one third of this stack with Q5 aginst a tight player OMG How can he do this,But i like it when i had a good hand and the donkey miss the flop
Congratulations but maybe the fish were you.... Too small reraise and call on turn ( of course you were committed ) were really dangerous ... only full house saved you from losting a big pot. Anyway compliments for you were brave
Good going, alot of people get timid by the casino atmosphere. But after you work in one after a while it gets old to walk into them, but the great thing is people often drink quite a bit when playing so they tend to make mistakes and play more loose then they should and lose some money. Just don't drink when you play. Always remember this, that HOT ASS cocktail waitress that you have been watching all night has probably slept with most of the other employees at the casino, so just make sure you keep it wrapped....lol.
