This is my story of tilting at Capital Casino Tonight.
Well When I got home I expected to go hang out with a certain someone. So I waited for the call. I fell asleep and when I woke up my phone was ringing. It was the phone call I was waiting for. But as most of you may know....... someone had canceled out on me. It was 730pm now. I had slept for 3 hours and i am wide awake. So i thought i give the Santi a call to grab food and to moan groan about getting dissed again by this person. But i didn't get a call back so i went to Capital. Well I sat right into the 6/12 game and it was going pretty well. It was up and down at first and I had to do a rebuy and after a couple of hours i was up almost a rack. Till a Loas player sat down on seat nine.
Lately I have been taking beats in stride, its going to happen and theres nothing much you can do about it but say nice hand and move on. But tonight was a little different.
First hand that started it. BB pocket jj. Got called by 3 players and i raised it up and it got called around. Flop comes 10 8 2 rainbow. I bet out and gets called around till it hit seat 9 he raised it. I rerasied back both players called and he caps it. Turn 3 two hearts on board but i am not too worried. I bet out and it went fold fold and seat nine raise. I was like man ok two pairs this sucks and i called. river was a 6 and i check he bets and i called. He says this " I have the sign off the beast." Huh??? He shows Pocket 66 and said look AK no good. I was like wow..... ok no problem.
Then came the very next hand, sb and i see pocket kk. A couple callers and seat nine said the magic words i want to be the killer i raise. Well Back to me and I three bet it and it gets cap 3 players to the flop. Flop come a K103 with two diamonds and a club. I flop top set, now all i need to do is pair the board and i Know i will be good. I bet next player folds seat nine said I am hot i way ahead raised. Bing!!! I love it I three bet him and he caps it! Turn comes 7c still a good looking turn. I bet he raise and said I'm going to get high hand i know it raise. I three bet him back knowing it looks like i need to fade some diamonds and maybe a straight draw and straight flush draw. I am thinking man this guy has too many outs pair the board please! He calls and the river comes 2c. I think man that has to be my money card diamond didn't hit and i don't see a straight there at all. I bet out and he say raise. I looked again and was like huh no fucking way club draw? what??? i called and he shows 64clubs. I was pretty damn near in shock. He went runner runner for his flush draw.
Kill pot now and I am on the button. I looked down and see AHKH. it folds and seat 9 raises and say lets make it 4 in a row! seat one calls and i pop it up 3 bets. Seat nine says oh steaming huh.... lets cap it. Seat one call and i call. Flop comes AK6 rainbow. seat nine bets out seat one folds and i said raise. He calls. Turn came 6. He leads out on me and i raised it up again and he calls. I am thinking i am either way ahead or way behind. River q. he checks I bet and he says raise. I was shitting in my pants don't tell me i just fell for all of his trap and he flopped a set and turn the boat on me. I called and he says boat! I looked and he had pocket qq for the river full house. PUKE!!!!!! You have got to be kidding!!! I mean i know you cant fold that hand but if anything that's a call down hand with a flop of AK on the board. FUCK ME!!!!!!
Right now i was on semi tilt. I just ran bad and this donkey ass is getting lucky on me. No problem. A couple hands pass and i get pocket QQ It was limped around and i raised it up. Seat nine looks and said the magic words wait seat two raise? oh man steam raising again buddy? I call. 6 to the flop and it comes j33. Checks to me and i bet and all called. Turn was 10 Checks to me I bet and people started folding but seat nine called and said im going to check raise the river. SO don't bet i warned you. River 9. He checks and stupid me i still bet out. He says raise and i called. I said trip 3 are good. He says nope i don't have trips at all. He shows 78 for the runner runner straight. Then he goes off on I told you not to bet but greedy players like you think you hold the best hand when you don't and all your doing is donating me all your chips. Thanks. I just kinda stared in awww...... Sam the dealer (ugly Sam) said quiet no criticizing the player. Keep your comments to your self. Seat nine was like hey its cool man just trying to teach the boy how to play. BING...........Tilt factor on high..........
All in my head was keep cool... fuck this guy play your game..... if Santi see you like this what will he say? Get the fuck out of the table if you cant handle the swings.
So i chilled and folded a few hands till I was under the gun and looked down ans see AA one red one black. I open raised and thought no problem I most likey steal the blinds i be happy. But once it got to seat nine he looked at me and said raise again huh. I call. sb called and bb called. 4 to the flop. Flop comes k34. sb check bb checks i bet seat nine raised sb folds bb calls i reraised seat nine caps it and bb calls. Turn 2. BB checks i bet seat 9 raised again bb fold and i was like two pairs? I called. River pairs the 2. I checked seat nine bets i called. I was hoping i rivered a better two pairs on him. He says Nice call i missed my straight and show just a ace at me. Sam was like show two cards to win and he just held his card showing the ace. I flipped my cards showing my aces and then he dropped his card to the table and spread his other card out showing what his other card was...... it was 2. For runner runner trips.... (DING.....TILT COMMENCING)
All that came out of my mouth was this. WTF!!! WHY YOU SLOW ROLLING FOR. I fucking called just show your cards don't pulled this fucking slow roll crap..... Sam started to say calm down calm down. I was like don't fucking slow roll man. Sam said something to me in Chinese because obviously the other player was a older Loas or some 3rd world asain country guy so i know he wasn't talking to him. All i said was fuck him in Chinese and Sam said in chinese its ok its ok take a break. I got up and sat in the lounge for a bit. I fucking tilted. I sat their all potty and shiet. I ordered some food and ate. They called my name a couple time saying 3rd miss blind but i was like fuck this. I finished eating and went to the cage to cash out what chips i had left. Which was like 60 bucks.
I took a lost of 340 tonight.
I tilted.
I looked like a ass.
Oh well.
It was bound to happen.

My Run in with J C Tran!
It was Friday night and i was on the 6/12 table. I was on seat one and Santi was on seat two. His buddy on seat three said this out loud. " Hey we have a celebrity in the house!" (Well something close to this i think is what he said) As i looked over it was JC Tran. Sacramento own poker celebrity. Winner of a WPT event and WSOP bracelet plus many final tables of many different events. Santi joked around and said hey don't you know that guy? I thought you went to high school with him. I corrected him and said no it was Jr. High and High school. He walk through the room and then disappeared. Santi said something like why don't you go say hi or something like that.
I thought man its been like a year since i last saw him. Will he still remember me? Has fame and fortune changed him? or is he still the same o guy from high school? About a hour goes buy and he comes walking back to the room and he hops onto the 5/10 no limit table with a rack. I see him joking around with the guys on the table saying if its ok for him to take this seat before he starts taking everyone money.
Well the table breaks and It doesn't take me long to cash out. While the Santi was cashing out i decided well here goes lets see what he says. So i walked over to him and he was talking to the owner of cap that was sitting next to him on seat 8. Then i called him by the name I always knew him by. Which I wont say, he turns around and say's who the FUCK ARE YOU!!!! I was like a humble fan looking to get a autograph and a picture with you.
J/K he turns around and says whats up Super Donk! we chit chatted a bit and all along Santi was standing right behind me and it didnt dawn on me to introduce him to JC. Even though I was pretty sure i have over a year ago. It was around the last time i saw him at the Cap and the santi was there. But he says he has been taking a break from the tour and resting up before the WSOP. He planning on playing alot more events this year since he learned how to play O8 and other games. He even said to look him up when i am there during the Card player/67 suited vegas trip in June.
I was like cool cool. Told him good luck and let him continue to play his game.
That was my experience with meeting JC Tran. Just wanted to let you all know.

Bad Run at the Capital 05/15
Well it was bound to happen, My good run over at Cap came to a crashing halt. More like i drove right into a brick wall. Nothing held, every hand i held was crushed. Lots of kill pot destroyed me. Even started to play and fold hands just because some one raise me out of the hand. (Santi I'm looking at you!) Usually when that happens its time to get out of the table. It means I'm letting it effect my game just because of variance.
Not going to say any hands since everything was destroyed and I took a nice 2 day break of just sleep and relax to get everything out of my head.
Over all Weekend Lost.
4/8 kill = +159
6/12 = - $700 (This is for total of 2 trips to CAP over Friday of playing.)

Capital Casino 5/14 Trip One
6/12 = +272
Well I was at training today and we got let out early so i decided to head down to Cap for some fun filled action. I call the Santi and told him my plans and he said he will meet up with me over there. When I got there I placed my name on the list and withing 5 min they opened up a new table in the Pai Gow room. The table was a little nitty with some solid players. To my right was Davin and across the table was Felize a very good 4/8 player when he wants to be. Also Raz was joining my table too. So its a game that i cant take too lightly. After a few hands where i missed the flop completely I get my first winning hand.
It went pretty standard.
68 off on the big blind and about 5 players to the flop.
Flop comes 664 with two diamonds.
sb check i bet it out and get called by 3 players. Turn was j, I bet and it went call call and call. River paired the 4 so i pretty sure the worst thing that could happen is i chop the pot with someone. I bet and 2 players called and i showed my hand and it was good!
After that the Santi joined the table and everything was pretty standard.

Monday Capital Casino 5/11. Hero lay down?
4/8Kill = -90
6/12 = +130
Total +40
Well I was bored and decided to go back to cap knowing I won't be able to play for a while after this trip. I got into a crazy 4/8 game. Never had much hands hold and when I got called over to the 612 game I was down. I played pretty standard but couldn't get any hands to hold.
But once on the 6/12 my hands were holding. Two hands to talk about really. First hand Q10 hearts on the sb. Super aggro player running hot raise like usual about 5 players to the flop. Flop comes 2J9 rainbow with one heart. I check and it goes bb bets, call, fold, aggro raise, I reraise bb caps it all call. Turn was 5 heart giving me the flush and straight draw. I bet out call fold aggro says I got a flush draw I raise. This is where I not sure to 3bet or call because I'm still not beating anything. I called bbcalls. River was 8clubs giving me the nut straight. I lead out bb calls and aggro says I fold my pocket kk which I knew was a lie. I showed and took down a nice pot.
OK after a hour on the 6/12 game i was getting hungry and i text the santi to see if he wanted to go and eat before he goes into work. He says to meet at the usual spot at 8:20, I decided 8:00 would be a perfect time to leave. Pretty much the table gone fishing against the one spew tard that raising every hand but is some how holding up with any two cards that he plays. At this point I have 2 racks and a stack and a half in front of me. It was my last hand and Tim was dealing. I'm under the gun and i looked down to see two red Kings, I looked at Tim and thought what a punk he give me this of all hands on a kill pot and this was my last hand i was planning on playing. So i limped in and it goes call, call, fold, maniac raise (which i knew he was going to since he raise every hand for like the last 10 hands) Hot Asian momma I forget her name again ( I'm thinking Emily) Raj fold, sb fold, bb folds, back to me i raise, call, call, manic caps it, Emily calls and we all call. Flop comes 10s, 2s, 3d. I'm first to act and I lead out, call, call, manic raise, Emily call, I reraise, call, call, maniac caps, Emily call, everyone else call. I'm thinking i know i have the best hand i need to dodge a spade. Turn comes qs. The flush gets there and i am disgusted I am thinking all i can do know is just call down. I check, check, check, maniac bets and Emily raises. I looked at Emily and stare at her knowing she can make this play, trying to represent that she has the flush. As I stared at her she just did a quick head nod to me which i never seen her do before to me. Pretty much indicating to me to lay it down that she has the best hand even though she must put me on a monster hand like Aces or kings. I just shake my head and fold Tim takes my card and shakes at me pretty much telling me good lay down. I decided to stay and see how this ends up. It gets called and called by the next two players and maniac calls. River was Kc hitting my set, but the flush is out there and also two goofy straights like AJ or J9. I'm thinking well its a good lay down no way i am good. The betting goes check, check, maniac checks, Emily bets, call call and maniac folds and says i am laying down my aces and just show one ace only. Emily flips her card and show pocket 2 for a flop set i was shit out surprised. I looked at the next two players that called thinking one of them must have hit their flush!!!! But they both folded. All i could do was smile and walk away in tears. Just knowing I made the right fold. I just would have just happen to have hit my one outer because a Kspade would have been no good to me either way. Emily played it perfect and she hit her perfect card that she needed to on the flop. SICKNESS in my opinion calling 24 chips with pocket 2. But it paid off for her. So i left that game up 40 for the trip when before that hand I was up +130 or so.
6/12 = +130

Capital Casino Mothers Day War!!
I will keep this super short.
I was in a 4/8 battle that was to die for.
Pots that were 200 plus almost everyhand. Plenty of fish hitting hands and chips moving everywhich way. It was a war. After 5 hands I knew I needed to buy in for more. I normally just buy in a rack but this time after seeing alot of people with a wall of chips I thought i better buy in for more. Which I did for 200 more for a total of 300 in front of me.
Hands to come. I took alot of beating and i dished out some beat downs. I was never more than 200 up but i sure was down 200+ alot. It was a hard hit battle that I just couldnt leave the game till the last of the big fish left. I may not know how much they bought in for or what not. But it seem each one when they left racked up for about 500 to 600 each. It made me cry when they left. But once they did. I came up a little up.
4/8 kill = + 110.

Capital Casino 5/9 SUPERDONK BDAY
Well I am going to keep this short because its late and i have to work in the morning. But thank You for all those who came out for my birthday. It was cheesecake factory and then to Hanger 17 afterwards a trip to the Park for some clubbing good time and then to the truck stop. After wards once I woke up I went to Capital Casino to meet up Fender and the Santi.
Over all 6/12= +300 for the day.
I will talk hands later.
OK i am back but a problem just arrived. I cant really remember much hands at all to talk about. So i will talk about one hand that i played like a nit. AK I think i was bb or maybe sb. But pretty much i raised and it was like 3 or maybe 4 players to the flop. Flop came AJ8 and i bet out and the player next to me raised. For some odd unknown reason something told me A8 was what he was holding so i just called his raise. Normally this is a easy raise and calling a cap and lead out the turn and go from there if he continue to raise me or what not. But I just plain call his raise. The turn was a blank i check he bets and i called. rivered paired the 8. Now if he had a8 he just filled up and has a monster hand. I just checked and he checked behind. I showed my ak and he mucked. Puke....... I played that hand like a freaking Nit. Santi even said wtf? Its pretty much means i played scared and allowed myself not to maximize my bets and i just won the min. If i am going to play scared don't bother to play at all. I am changing the way i play and i need to stop that bull shit.
The only other hand i can really think of is the hand against Fender and you can read that on his blog. All i can say is I played bad and it was a easy fold on the flop. Nice hand Fender.
Well the Santi wanted some pics so here is my attempt.
(yes the pic is blurry but it looks like someone was trying to lick this poor unexpecting Asian girl)
Picture of my chip stack at its peak Yes that arm sure looks like the Santi!
(Bottom has 10 stacks, second level had 6 stacks and the third level had 3 stacks. plus a one dollar chip on top total of $761 but i bought in for two racks, ran bad at first)
This pic is me and two of my friends at the Park

Capital Casino 5/7 Good start bad finish.
6/12 = +258
4/8 kill = + 66
Total profit = +324
Well I got to Capital planning to eat when I get there with the Santi. But for some reason when I saw him he looked like he wanted me to GTFA So i decided to hop onto the 2nd 6/12 game running in the Pai Gow room. As i sat down I had a crazy manic player to my right. I'm sitting in seat 8 so I'm like great lets see how i handle this. First hand I played was Pocket 7 and i think i was the button. UTG raise and the crazy asian player 3 bet it and i debated if i should cap it but i don't i call and it was 4 players to the flop. Flop was 37j rainbow. First raiser bets crazy Asian guy raise, i 3 bet it and the first raiser caps it. Turn 5h, first raiser bets, crazy Asian guy call i raise, first raiser call and crazy calls. River was Ah which made a flush on the board. It checked to me i still bet out and only the first raiser calls. I show my set and he mucks his hand. Nice little pot if I don't say so myself.
The next hand I played was pocket 10. seat 5 goes all in for 5 chips and seat 6 a very solid white guy ask if he can raise and dealer said you can call 2 or complete. So he completes and it gets to me and i raise it. One player calls the solid white boy call so were 3 to the flop and one player is all in with me last to act. Flop comes K109 with two hearts. It went check solid white guy bets i raise, next guy fold, solid white guy reraise and I cap it. The turn was a 10 giving me quads. He checks and I bet and he did a check raise. I thought about it for a second and decide to just call it. River was an A and he bets right out and I raised him. He thought about it and decides to call. Which I think the Ace killed my hand really. I show my quads and he beats himself up saying i just wasted 2 bets for nothing. Nice hand Nice hand.
After that hand the table breaks and Its only been 15 min since I sat down. I go out and check on the Santi and we grab dinner.
After dinner the game was like 4 or 5 handed. Not something I like. Also it looked like one of the players was ready to leave. So i decided to put my name on the 4/8 kill list. After waiting like 45 min i get seated. I folded till i was under the gun and i see ajclubs. I raised and next thing i know it was capped. The flop comes J85 rainbow. bb bets out, i raise, it gets reraised and capped back before it gets to me. All i know now is i think i need to call down because someone may have a over pair here. turn was 2 bb bets out i called and only one other player calls. river was a 2 and bb bets i call and the player who is last to act and only been calling this whole time raise. BB kept saying that's sick that is just sick and he calls and i decided pot big and i am last to act and i called. The river raiser shows 62 off for running trips and bb show pocket kk I finish third.
So my table breaks after a few more hand and i am down 96 bucks on 4/8. 4 seats 5 players drawing and i draw last just to see what i have to beat and i see someone drew a 4. I was like no problem i just have to avoid 8 cards and i should get a seat. Well you guess what I drew. Yup, I drew a 3 so now i have to wait. As I waited i see that one of the table is a action table. A drunk momma is raising every flop bet and everything you can think off but she is hitting her cards. I think man i need to get on this table and try to capitalize on this. After 30 min i get seated at the table and i decide to have two rack too play this game.
After losing AA to momma to her river two pairs i finally get a hand that gets back to the positive. I look and see qq under the gun. I raise and mamma raise and bb reraise and i cap it. Flop come q53. Perfect flop. bb check i bet momma raise i reraise she caps and its 4 players to the turn but two of them is all in so its heads up. The turn was 10 which is still perfect i think. I bet mamma raise, i reraise, she raises back, I 5 bet it she 6t bet it i 7 bet it and a stupid player was like wait how can you guys keep raising? Andy says its head up and they can raise each other till no more chips, the player says why don't they say all in? Andy says no they have to keep betting each other. By then Momma says oh i didn't know its unlimited i was waiting for you to say its capped. I was pissed!!! she would have kept going to no ends. so she calls and the river is a 7, i bet and she calls and she shows qj. wow she was going crazy with that hand i took down a huge pot. Being down about a rack and a half i was up a rack and a half now. Which should have been a sign to leave but i stayed for a couple more orbits which was a mistake.
KK on a kill BB. It gets capped thanks to momma. flop was A99. two spades. I have a king of spades and the ace of spades is on the board. Sb check i bet momma calls sb check raise i call mamma calls. turn was 7 spades giving me the nut flush draw now and sb blind bets i call momma raise. sb calls and i tank a bit thinking is it worth it and i made the call. Well the river was jh missing my flush and with the ace on the board i was no good. sb bets, i fold, momma calls which was weird since she raised the turn. Sb shows aq for top pair, momma shows pocket 33 for two pairs and trying to raise us out of the hand. Big pot to lose. I played a orbit more and cashed out up 66 on the 4/8 game.
4/8 kill = + 66
Total profit = +324
Well I got to Capital planning to eat when I get there with the Santi. But for some reason when I saw him he looked like he wanted me to GTFA So i decided to hop onto the 2nd 6/12 game running in the Pai Gow room. As i sat down I had a crazy manic player to my right. I'm sitting in seat 8 so I'm like great lets see how i handle this. First hand I played was Pocket 7 and i think i was the button. UTG raise and the crazy asian player 3 bet it and i debated if i should cap it but i don't i call and it was 4 players to the flop. Flop was 37j rainbow. First raiser bets crazy Asian guy raise, i 3 bet it and the first raiser caps it. Turn 5h, first raiser bets, crazy Asian guy call i raise, first raiser call and crazy calls. River was Ah which made a flush on the board. It checked to me i still bet out and only the first raiser calls. I show my set and he mucks his hand. Nice little pot if I don't say so myself.
The next hand I played was pocket 10. seat 5 goes all in for 5 chips and seat 6 a very solid white guy ask if he can raise and dealer said you can call 2 or complete. So he completes and it gets to me and i raise it. One player calls the solid white boy call so were 3 to the flop and one player is all in with me last to act. Flop comes K109 with two hearts. It went check solid white guy bets i raise, next guy fold, solid white guy reraise and I cap it. The turn was a 10 giving me quads. He checks and I bet and he did a check raise. I thought about it for a second and decide to just call it. River was an A and he bets right out and I raised him. He thought about it and decides to call. Which I think the Ace killed my hand really. I show my quads and he beats himself up saying i just wasted 2 bets for nothing. Nice hand Nice hand.
After that hand the table breaks and Its only been 15 min since I sat down. I go out and check on the Santi and we grab dinner.
After dinner the game was like 4 or 5 handed. Not something I like. Also it looked like one of the players was ready to leave. So i decided to put my name on the 4/8 kill list. After waiting like 45 min i get seated. I folded till i was under the gun and i see ajclubs. I raised and next thing i know it was capped. The flop comes J85 rainbow. bb bets out, i raise, it gets reraised and capped back before it gets to me. All i know now is i think i need to call down because someone may have a over pair here. turn was 2 bb bets out i called and only one other player calls. river was a 2 and bb bets i call and the player who is last to act and only been calling this whole time raise.

Capital Casino 5/3
Well I decided to go in since my plans for the day went south. (for the record the 50th time I got stood up) So i though i might as well play for a few hours.
6/12 = $0
Yup that's right. I played for a little over 4 hours and broke even for the day. At one point I was up a rack. but that's before all my big pairs got murdered.
AA -3 times
kk - 4 times
qq - 3 times
All cracked on the turn or river. Everyone hit their cards and i completely went 0 for 10 on all my big pairs. I was lucky in a way not to lose more. The benefit of being Asian is sometime the bad players take it easy on you. I had this papa just check down to me his nut hands so I would return the favor back. Well during all of these big pocket pairs he would decide to be the only one to call me after the flop. So i would return the niceness and just check down the rest and what do you know. He hit his outs on the turn or river. Normally he says he would have called down either way so betting or not would not have help me get him to fold his hand. Normally I am always going for the jugular when I play.
But lucky what kept me in the game was all of my BB specials and winning with Aj Ak hands like that.
One decent pot was AK. I raised about 5 to the flop Flop was like q 67. I c bet and only the two ladies called that was in the hand. Turn was 2 I double barrel and they both called. I was like crap. River was j and i check and they both check. One of the players said you cant beat the ladies ak is going to be no good. I showed my AK and they both mucked their cards. Wow I cant believe ace high was good!!!!
Oh well I plan on doing some playing Thursday night if all goes well after work.

capital casino 5/2/09 free falling again
4/8Kill = 0 for 4 hours.
6/12 = -480 for 3 hours.
It was a bad night at Cap. At one point on 4/8 I was up 220 and everything just started to free fall when all my big pairs got busted or I miss all my draws. 4/8 seem to have so much action now its crazy. The table I had was all action so if i was in a pot it was usually a family pot and its been raised at least once. I seem to get alot of respect in a way from players. They seem to only think I have AA, AK, KK, QQ if I was playing. So alot of time a player would normally say give me a low ball flop and they usually get their wish. Oh well, If I hold huge pots would be coming my way. If I dont hold, then I just have to learn to run better.
The 6/12 game was a killer, the hot Asian girl was playing and this time her husband was there too, his name was Ben. Also a Black girl that Ive seen before and plays every hand. If she has a hand she tries to play it aggressive but she spews alot because her chip stack goes up and down like a roller coaster.
Pretty much I knew this was going to be a great action table with a aggressive game. I need to practice handling aggressive players, I get timid and passive and usually don't make plays back so i normally get dominated by them.
First hand I played was Pocket QQ, I raised Ben raises back it gets called by a couple player i reraised and he caps it. 4 players to the flop. Flop 6510. Good looking flop, I bet he raises i reraise and it gets capped. Over pair I am thinking? hopefully not aces or kings. Turn was a 4. I bet and he still raise. I just called we are head up. river 3. Horrible card really. 2 or a 7 gives you a straight but the pots big and all i can do is check call. I checked and he bets and i made the call. He shows me Pocket 3 for the river set. I was like WOW!!!! Super Aggressive!!! Nice hand nice hand. PUKE!!!!
Which lead to the very next hand where I get pocket AA.
Now its a kill pot. Ben Killed it with his win. Its get limp and i raised. by the time it get back to me it was capped. I was like wow no way am i going to be able to hold with this hand. At least 6 to the flop. Flop is K78. I bet all called ( not good in my book) Turn was a 6 I bet and only Ben wife called. River was a 6 which i thought was a safe card I bet and she raised. I called and she showed 56 for running trips but flopped open ended. Ouch.

Capital Casino 5/1/09 Free Falling
So I went to Cap today after picking up my 4runner from my godfather house. The list was long but Tony and the Santi was there playing already. By the time i got a seat at a 4/8kill game it was at least 21/2 hours of waiting. But I will make this short as i have to get up early tomorrow for a wedding.
4/8 kill + $135
6/12 + $145
Total for the evening: +280.
I will post some hands when I can but pretty much at one point i was up 2 racks on 6/12 and it free fall all the way down to 40 bucks and back up to where i cashed out at 145 for the night on 6/12.
OK I am back to post a quick history. When I got onto the 6/12 table, Happy the dealer was dealing cards. After a few hands Happy ask where is my crazy friend? I was like who? you know the one you two always go crazy raising each other. I looked at Nick and was like huh???? She said hmmm maybe i am mistaken, I was like I don't know maybe your right. Right then she dealt me pocket qq. I raised and another player raises and I capped it. I wasn't too sure how many players there was but once the river came I was in a checking mood when it look like a possible straight was on the board. The very next hand i get queens again. I raised and I believe it gets capped and once again I flopped a set. I took it down on the turn. Sorry I cant really remember too much on how my hands were played.
