A Basement Poker Party

Its time for another rendition of the kidinthehizy gettin bizzy at the tables. Last night was definitely a Poker Party in the Cobster’s basement. We had the hockey game on (really it shouldn’t have been since the leafs got freakin smoked) and the laptops fired up. The game plan that I had set up was to play in three SNG’s (and hopefully cash in all of them) throughout the night. The first game I played I got busted out in fourth place (one out of the money), what a shitty place to finish. I mean I’d rather be knocked out first than finish in fourth goddamn place. All that time you waste to get nothing out of it.

Once I was eliminated in fourth I quickly found myself joining another table and starting over again. This time I could feel like something good was going to happen. First hand this guy goes all-in pre-flop and I’ve got pocket rockets so I call him. He has pocket kings and my aces held up. They finally held up! This is one of the first times I have had aces and they actually won me some goddamn chips. So with that quick double up I was in great position to make a move. I eventually would continue to play well and I was getting some pretty good cards as well. I finished in first place after a long heads up battle. We were going back and forth for so long that I was glad it was finally over.

It’s amazing how pumped you get for winning $50 but I love it. I get pretty animated after a win that’s for sure. I hope I can keep em coming.

My third SNG of the evening was a long hard battle. I saw myself get real shortstacked and then hit a couple of huge hands that got me right back into the bad boy. There were a couple of guys at the table that were 100% Calling Stations. They would call everything and then try to buy the pot. I was getting annoyed with all-in calls and they would have 93o like give me a fuckin break. Eventually I would knock one of these bastards out in fourth place and I loved it. My luck did run out though and I finished off in third place.

All in all not a bad Poker Party evening! I cashed in two out of the three and I had some fun doin it.
