January, February, Check


Good news, I hit the goal for the month with a $1010 profit last night. The stack above looks like a lot more than that but I was in for $1200. Early (really early, like first 30 minutes) I pushed with a straight flush draw with 3s4s on a board that had As5sX. I hated pushing like this with the low flush but I was in the mood to gamble and try to double up. Like two hands later I flopped a nut flush draw with Ad7d and pushed again and bricked. It was fun.

So just like that I was in for $1200 but made a nice comeback, most notably bluffing a guy off of his KK when there were two aces on the board. He showed his kings so I showed my K6 just to put him on tilt and it worked like a charm as he proceeded to unravel and lose the rest of his big stack plus another buy-in.

Then with about $600 I raised to $40 with QT of hearts on the button. The small blind re-raised me to $80 and I called. The flop came out three hearts. He bet $80 again. I raised to $160 hoping he'd push with a high heart or high pair and that he did. He went all-in, I snap called and he missed with AK and the ace of hearts (no pair on the flop).

As for my hoop game last night, it was a disaster. We were up 10 points with about five minutes left and lost in overtime. I shot poorly once again and was frustrated with the refs because the other team was gang raping my arms every time I had the ball (I run the point on this team) and I didn't get one foul call. A couple times I had to just pick my dribble up and start swinging elbows which I got a good LOL from because the other team started whining even though they were all over me and reaching in.

This weekend I'm planning on relaxing and staying out of the casino until Sunday. I might mess around on Full Tilt if I have time.

I've put up a new poll on the right sidebar. Basically I'm thinking about paying back my $401k loan in full ahead of schedule (I'm about four months into the cycle) and was wondering what people thought I should do.


Good luck and have a great weekend, 4 years..........
