Day 4

Day three was relatively uneventful, except for one 20-40 hand at the Mirage:

I raise in early position with KQ offsuit. I get called by the big blind.

Flop is Q 5 Q, rainbow. check, I bet, he calls.
turn: 2. still rainbow. check, i bet, he calls.
river: A. check, i bet, he raises. I look at him and say, "do you have 3-4? I'm just gonna call. I have three queens. " my man rolls over 3-4 offsuit. He called on the flop with 4 high and literally no draw! wowza. I dropped about 150 yesterday... not a lot.

today was 20-40 at the rio. I started off winning a big pot when i flopped a set of aces and made a boat on the river, and I had a guy raise me on the end, so i got three bets out of him.

Then i lost a huge pot when my aces were cracked by 4-5 offsuit (she made quads), and her and some other guy were raising like crazy on the turn. I beat the other guy out of a side pot, but it was a small one. we capped on the turn, so that's 200 right there.

Flopped a set of 9s and won a very big pot from the 4-5 woman (who was so insane that i just had to keep playing, even though i was feeling kinda done... it was clearly a very profitiable table when she was around. she 3 bet the turn on a K high board with KQ, with 2 other players in the hand, and then was upset when it turned out she was beat (which she really had to be).

I also won a big pot at the end when I limped with 89 of clubs and the flop came Qc 7c 8. I turned a 9 and rivered another eight for a boat, and had a guy bet into me. I guess he made a straight on the turn, but he checked the turn and then just called, and then bet the river when he was behind. that was a nice pot too... I left up 700 or so for the session.

I'm still down for the trip, but now it's a relatively small amount...

Oh yeah... there are a bunch of cute girls out here too.
