Day 10: Weekend Day Shift $$

Showed up to HP today at 10 a.m. and the lists for the 200 NL and 100 NL were both about seven names long. For some unknown reason I sat down at the 4/8 limit table. This was a profitable venture.

My goal for the day really was to make up the money that I lost on Friday. If I could do that, I'd be happy with that.

Second hand on the 4/8 limit table I got AA. Three bet it pre-flop and bet the whole way and won the hand. Lucky for me due to the fact that there's crazy chasers at the limit games. I also capped a pot pre-flop with AsKs and hit the king on the flop. Bet the whole way and won that hand as well. I think I won one other hand and left the table after about 30 minutes +201.

Next I sat down at a 100 NL table but I was quickly moved to the 200 NL. I saw like three free hands and didn't play a flop on the 100 NL.

The 200 NL table was brand new and I recognized one player at the table as a crazy calling station/loose aggressive player. I doubled up through him with A-10 two pair but it was tough because the flop came AQJ with two hearts. I bet the whole way and the river was the 10 (no hearts came). He went all-in for 105 and I called. He showed Jh4h.

I took down another big pot with KQ. I raised pre-flop to 25 and got one caller. The board came Qxx. I bet $40 and got a quick call. The turn was a blank and I bet 100. The other player thought for a long time and then said "raise" real quietly. He then pushed all-in for about $125 more and I called. He says "You got an over pair?"which tells me he has AQ but when the river paired the board and I said "I have a king kicker," he said "You're good," and I took down the pot.

I lost a big pot when a brand new player sucked out on me. The board was 4-6-7 rainbow and I had 4-6 in the blind. I bet $25 and got two callers. The turn was a 10. A player went all in for $125 and I didn't think he had the straight so I called. The river was a 7 and he showed 7-4 for two pair.

I took down some other mid-sized pots, one with the nut flush on a paired board, another with a K-10 straight that hit the J on the turn, which was for free. I won +672 on the 200 NL table, which was good considering I took a big hit when I lost the 6-4 hand.

Overall it was good day, I won +873 and left around 3 p.m. to play in a basketball game. Game sucked. I'm so out of shape I was sucking wind running up and down the court. I scored only about six points but I had about 10 boards and a few blocks. Just sucked cuz I was probably the best player and it was my first game with this team but because I haven't played in a few days and I'm out of shape I was terrible. We were actually down 17 to start the fourth quarter and came back to tie it with about 32 seconds left but we ended up losing by four.

I might go back tonight for a few hours and see if I can win some more money. I haven't decided yet so we'll see. It's kind of late to get started and I don't want to feel pressured to win some money in a short amount of time.
