Bodonked again.....Vegas in two days!!!!

I haven't been playing well lately. I was distracted Monday night while playing M.A.T.H. and watching MNF and I called all in with a really bad hand. I did this once before and said never again in a tournament situation...I called anyway. I actually won the hand but it was more than improbable. I shouldn't watch the Patriots or the Red Sox while playing against good players.....I was embarrassed by the play. I'm going to have to learn from my mistakes the first time around and never make that mistake again...that's what makes a good player. Learn from your mistakes....once is enough let alone twice.

Moving on.....The best call I ever made was going to Las Vegas on Friday! My itinerary is as follows :

Southwest Airlines : Manchester, NH
Departs Dec 7, 6:45 AM
Arrive Dec 7, 9:50 AM

Departs Dec 9, 4:45 PM
Arrive Dec 10 12:35 AM (that sucks...good thing I took Monday off)
Staying at the Imperial Palace

I got Bodonked out of the Bodonkey! I was chipping up nicely when my Kings were raised....I re-raised...was re-raised...and went all in. I was called by J's.....and a J on the turn knocked me out...that sucks. I hope my Aces and Kings hold up when I play some live poker again. I haven't played in a live setting for a while. Looking forward to the WPBT Winter Classic! Looks like there are already over 120 players. This should be memorable. I have never met anybody in the WPBT....but I will call on Friday and meet some people anyway....I don't care. I'll be in Vegas with cash and a place to stay so.....I'm ready to rip it up. I still can't believe how cool of a wife I have...I am a lucky man. Not only did she agree I should go...she made the travel plans for me! That my friends is fantastic. There are quite a few people who still can't believe that I'm going to Vegas by myself to meet people that I've never met before. They look at me with this (head-tilted-to side-I'm-so-confused-look) look and say something like "what are you crazy or something"! I mean I'm not expecting anything...I'm just gonna go with it. Whenever I go to Foxwoods with friends I usually disappear to the Poker Room anyway. I'm used to seeking out a poker game by myself whether it was the charity tourneys that I frequented, the Foxwoods Poker room, or the awesome bar league in Haverhill, MA. I'm gonna miss that place now that I moved from Lawrence to Wakefield. No more Thursday night NL tournament! None of my friends know about my blog...I mean....none of my good friends play poker! It's really hard to get a game going unless we play the mindless home games. Don't get me wrong...a good game of 'Screw your neighbor' is fun....but to play a tourney and maybe some mixed games against good players is not a common thing. Even some of the charity poker rooms are a complete crap shoot. I will be playing the 'Mookie' on Wednesday night...but not RiverChasers on Thursday..I need to get up around 4:00AM on Friday!

Bodonked!

I got the chips in with A-6o against A-2o.....and lost. An ace on the flop and a 2 on the river of course. I can't believe that more people aren't in this tourney. There are a ton of great payouts and they get even better with more people. Details on Smokkee's blog and the Bodog banner on the right......

Miscellaneous stuff....T.G.I.F.F.

Thank God It's F'n Friday. This weeks onslaught of BBT2 tourneys has been a grind. I wasn't able to cash in the 'Big Game', M.A.T.H., The Mookie, but I was able to final table RiverChasers and pick up a few bucks. I came in 5th and basically played some solid poker. The final table was run over by Lucko....what the fuck else is new. Congrats to Lucko...he makes it look easy. I made a good stack by the final table.....but I ran my A-10o into A's. Actually I raised in position but the short stack on the table at the time pushed and I called. I need to stop that kind of play at the final table if I actually want to win a blonkament. I also mixed in a ton of low buy-in tourneys on Stars and a few other blonkaments like 'The Bodog Blogger tournament' on Bodog and the 'Monkey Tourney' on Stars. The Bodog tourney was going rather well until I tried to push ShamanAlex off of his flopped ten with my measly 3's. I really wanted to final table that tourney with all the overlay goodness.....oh well. The 'Monkey Tourney' was really kind of a bad beat to fourth place...3 get paid. The short stack pushed with A-Jo and I called with 9's....Standard Ace on the flop took 85% of my stack. I had another pocket pair just after that but another standard ace on the flop put me away to a miserable bubble finish. There is something to that 'All-in Vigorish' that seems to hold up on the poker sites out there. The bubble finish and the not-so-good play on the Bodog Blogger tourney ruined my Tuesday. I would have felt a lot worse if I didn't token-in to the bigger tourneys for the BBT2. Don't forget to forage into the wild world of Sports....Fantasy Sports that is. Don't be afraid to use Bonus Code : PokahDave!. Anyway, I'll be haunting Stars and Full Tilt tonight...and oh.........one more thing................................................................................................................................................................
