New Home... Found a new place to play poker

Hey strangers!! Well, it's been a very busy week, what with the move, getting the new place set up, doing address changes, and all the other shit that comes with doing a big move. Absolutely no time for any poker up until today, when I had a few hours to spare and went and checked out the casino in Penticton and to my delight found that they have two poker tables. On Friday night, both tables spread a $1/$2 No-limit game that starts at 2 in the afternoon. I was lucky enough to get a set as I was there at five minutes to two and not enough of the signed up players nor none of the alternates was there to fill the tables so I got a seat right away.

I was able to take advantage of my "new player" image to jump out to an early $100 lead but I saw that evaporate when my runner-runner straight got beat by a runner-runner flush and then my rebuy got evaporated when I hit pocket kings in the small blind and ended up being all-in preflop against the big blind who held pocket aces. Neither of us improved and I was busted out.

I wasn't disheartened by either beat though, as the runner-runner was a hard read and the aces vs kings was only raised $20 preflop and pushed for my last $16 ($36 total)... and you know I was gonna call the $20 so might as well get it all in there.

I liked my read of the table, too. I felt in fine form as I had pegged the one aggessive player, three tighty-whitey's and the one player I gave any credence to.

Gotta build my bankroll.

How you Victoria mothers doing anyway?
