I slept with the dealer

12:30am-3:30am @ the RIO - $200 Buy-in $1/3 NLHE - Profit: $200

A night of good hands makes for short profit.

Hand 1: Pocket Aces, both black. I miss played this hand miserably. First hand of the night that I played, I folded about 10 before, and the button raised to $15 and I am the small blind with the rockets. Just call, wow what a bad play by this guy. About 4 other people call and I am doomed for an unsuccessful hand. Flop is J 9 2. I check? WOW! WHAT AM I DOING AGAIN!? Everybody checks. Turn 8, I bet out $40 and get raised by an angry asian. I think about it for two minutes and then just fold my AA face up telling the other AA nice bet and hand. I think he had 89 at worst but he never showed. His face was angrier so that was a good sign at least.

Hand 2: Pocket Kings, both black! The angry asian is determined to get my chips so he calls my preflop raise of $12. Flop is Q 8 7. I bet $35 he calls. Turn is a 7 I check, he fires $80, I go all in he looks disgusted and calls. I cant remember the river but I won the hand. He gets ANGRIER!

Hand 3: Pocket Aces, both red! Why are all my pocket pairs colored? Very nice dude to my right raises to $15, I pop him to $45 total. He only had $120 on the table after his first $15 so I was poking his brain to give me the rest of the chips. He just calls. Flop is T high board and I bet a small $30 when he has $90 left. Trying to poke his brain again to just give me his chips, he pushes! WOOOOOoooooooo!!!!! I auto call and he mucks whatever he had after the turn 8 and river K.

Pretty good little stint at the series. All the players were pretty basic players. Sticking by whatever book they read and giving me an easy table to read.

Might hit the tables again today.
