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.
6/12 = -480 for 3 hours.

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.

A little pissed off.
Well I am a little mad right now. When ever I get a bank roll going that I think would be a decent amount something comes up. The last month or so I had to do some repairs on both my car. My IS300 needed new tires and I had to buy some so I used my poker roll to pay for it. Not cheap since I have to get low profile type of tires to go with the car. Now my 4runner is finnaly fixed after like 2 months of sitting around my moms friend mechanic. Its basically just a tune up. Nothing too expensive. Dealers like 400-500 bucks only. SO i figure this guy should be cheap. after all is done my mom tells me its 500 bucks. 125 for labor and the rest are parts. I was like WTF!!!! She showed me the invoice..........
It looks like this:
4runner: 97 dollars, spark plugs, wires, oil, and flushing out the radiator and stuff.
Rav 4: 300 bucks, New breaks and roters etc.
??????????????????
Rav 4?????????
wtf???????
thats my little brother car!!!!!!!!!!
I said to my mom why the FUCK am i paying for his crap?????
Because she cant afford it....
Wait why are you paying for it why isn't he paying for it!!!!
WTF!!!!! If i don't pay for it my mom has to pay for it!!!!
This pisses me off to no end.
What a useless piece of crap!!!!

Capital Casino 4/25/09
So after work i wanted to go to play but i forgot it was my friends bday bbq and he said to join him right after work. But i got a call saying it was moving to Faces. If you don't know Faces its a gay club but is considered one of the best clubs in Sacramento right now. 3 dance floors and a pool with different type of music in each room. He pretty much said it be fucked up if i don't go to celebrate his bday so i pop up and found it very interesting. allot of straight couples were there and alot of gay people too. very respectful too each other. i never saw anything too out of hand. Lucky for me the bday boy was drunk and his gf was out of it and they needed a ride home so i took then home and grab dinner with my friend Steve. Afterwards i got to Cap at 2ooam and their was still a waiting list for both game except the no limit game which is a no no in my book. after 30 plus min waiting i finally got a seat on the 6/12 game. It was weird i player plays every hand and raises the flop all the time his chips was up and down but he never re bought. One player they called him the pro because they said he was the best player. of course they never played with the santi. A mommy which was agro but played solid hands. A white boy who seemed solid and the rest was the typical donk.
It started off pretty bad pocket 10 and i raised the flop was k23. one player called which is the player that plays every hand. (I call him Ass in this report.) he was the only caller and the turn was a 9, i bet he called and the river was 9 i checked he bets i called. he said i knew i should have raised you on the turn. He showed k9 for the boat. I was like wow
Few hand later pocket 10 again i raised next player reraise and it gets capped 5 to the flop. Flop came A 5 9 rainbow. checked to me i bet and all called. At that point i knew i was dead. the turn was a 9 checked to me and i checked and the last to act bets couple called i decided to lay it down. river was k and the winner shows pocket aces for a boat. wow weird play he says he wanted to raise on the turn but i checked which messed him up.
next thing i know I had to do a rebuy.
But things finally turn around. I got pocket 5 under the gun i limped in next player raised 4 callers i called. flop came 57q. I checked player bets i all called back to me and i raised everyone calls. turn was 3, i bet couple folded and 2 callers. river was 6. i bet out and ass raised i was like damn it he has a 4 in his hand for the crappy runner runner straight. i called and he said two pairs. I was like oh I have a set. He showed 76 for a two pairs and i took down a decent size pot.
Another hand sb pocket 8 and its a kill. 4 players limp i called and bb raised. everyone calls and i called. flop came 10 8 3 rainbow. I checked bb bets all called i raised and everyone called. Turn was 2 clubs giving a club draw. I bet 3 folded and it was Ass and another player and me to the river. River was qc hitting a runner runner club and i decided just to check call since this was a kill hand but i wonder if it was a value bet or not. Ass bets it out the next player fold and i have the worst gut feeling in the world thinking he hit runner runner for a club flush. I called and showed AQ for a river q i showed my set and he said wow no raise? i was like i didn't like the flush. Momma said see i was right he too tight and passive. I don't think so but maybe i am.
Won a couple small pots and lost a couple big pots but by 530 the game was breaking up, George was asleep on the table and the greatest player on the table said this game too easy i am done and racked up and left. the solid white guy which wasn't too solid busted out and it went 5 handed and George said he was going to skip this round leaving it 4 handed i said Sorry folks i don't like 4 handed if George wakes up i will play but i don't like 4 handed play. so it breaks and i cashed out.
Over all
6/12 = + 166
cant complain came back from a rack down and made a profit.

Capital Casino 4/23/09
I joined the Santi after i had gotten off work. It was a Thursday night but I was off the next day to go see wicked(which was Awesome). I joined the santi and he was in the 6/12 game. I place my name on the list and got seated on the 4/8kill game. I folded alot and it was a fun table and they were saying to me if i was ever going to play a hand and i told them i would if i get a suited connector or something close to it because all i was seeing we 82, 10 3 hands like that. Ricky the dealer join my game and i get aa i raised and everyone called it was 7 handed. The flop came ak5 and i bet out Ricky raises and a couple other called i reraise and Ricky caps it and its 4 to the turn. 8 came i bet Ricky raise everyone else folds i reraise and Ricky said pocket ace? see you only play nut hand u will never make money but i call you i cant fold top two. river was a blank and i bet he calls and i showed my set of aces. By the time i got called to the 6/12 game i was up 144.
6/12 game was dominated by the sexy hot Asian girl. She must have had at least 4-5 racks in front of her. It started off slow but by the time i was done i was up a rack plus. I cant really remember much hands but twice i got pocket aces and twice i hit a ace on the flop. One on a kill hand too but never got past the turn everyone folded by then. Pretty much Santi said i played good nothing too funky. Which is a relief in my mind. I haven't played with the santi much but i feel i am playing very good right now, I need to turn up the plays a bit and raise more hands and bluff more pots. I think i gotten my donk hands out of my system now. I don't make those gut feeling on playing low crap card limping in. So I am feeling good on my plays.
Over all.
4/8 = + 140
6/12 = + 226
total profit of 366.

Its been awhile since my last post.
Where have I been? who knows? I am always lost and confuse. I've been playing alot just havent really blogged anything because I just dont have the time. Since the last time i blogged its been like 7 month since i last posted something. I think during that time, I have been to Vegas at least 4 times. Maybe Cache Creek like 3 times. But been going to Capital Casino like at least 40 times during that span. They have a 6/12 game now that i played alot on since it started. I think the first 2 times i played i have ran well. Then the rest have been minor ups and down. Since i cant really say how I have been running i will just give a brief update on my last 3 trips i have done for poker.
March 28-30th I was in Vegas for a bachelor party. Every time I tried to play in the 10/20 or 8/16 game it broke or was running short handed that i know i am at a disadvantage at. So I ended up playing No limit 1-2 at the Monte Carlo. I was running pretty well and was up like 200 after a 300 max buy in. SO i had a little over 500 in front of me. Till i came across this hand. aj suited. bb and middle positon raise to 12 i called and i think two other called. flop came kq10. Boom i flopped the nuts. I check till it reached the raiser who bets it comes to me and i check raised him to 100 more. He reraise me back a amount i don't remember and it pretty much was all in at that point. We showed our cards and he flopped q 10 for two pairs and i showed my straight. Pot was pretty much over 1000. I was drooling thinking about racking in that pot. He started screaming give me a 10 and BOOM a ten came on the turn. Game over for me. I suck at this freaking No limit crap. I thought i was done playing no limit when i came back the next night and saw the table full of drunks and i thought well i got to give this a shot. By the end of the night I made 600+ on no limit. I love playing with drunk players calling with bottom pair. Its nothing but awesome ness.
April 17-19th. Vegas again!
It started off pretty bad. no 8/16 running and 10/20 was a miss. Till my last night there. It was about 130 am and i got onto the 10/20 game. Pretty much keeping this short. After 2 and a half hours of play and the game got short handed I left up 900 for the short time i was there. I felt a little bad that it was kind of a hit and run. But once it got 5 handed and once in a while 4 handed a player would get up and take a break i knew i was at a disadvantage. I usually play really bad short handed. I think I am not aggressive enough once it get short handed. I usually get my ass handed to me.
Here is big pot: BB pocket 6 or 3 I forget already but lets go with pocket 3. under the gun raise two callers and i called. flop came 3c jd 10d. i check under the gun bets, call momma who loves the santi raises i check raise, undergun calls other player called momma reraised and i capped it all called. Turn was Ac i bet utc called, next player fold, momma raised i reraised thinking if she can still raise back i am calling down. utc called and mamma decided to call. River was a 2 of club and i bet utc called and momma called. I showed my set and everyone mucks. utc said he had ak of diamonds and momma said she flopped two pairs with her j10. Big pot i was loving it.
Another big hand was k10 suited on the bb. Under the gun raised again( how unlucky can he be) there was a good 4 callers and i called. Flop was beautiful AQJ rainbow. I checked utg checked i was like damn i may have missed my check raise. But lucky momma bets and i raised, utg checked raised also. it gets capped and it was 3 to the turn. The turn was 9, i bet out and he raised momma calls i reraised he calls and momma calls. river was a harmless 5 and i bet and they both called. I showed my nut straight and i he showed pocket jj. momma said she had ak and couldn't let it go with a possible straight draw too.
Two huge pots = lots of money!!! =)
10/20 = + 900
4/8= + 60
over all a good trip. It covered my spending which included drinks food and clubbing which totaled to be around 1000 bucks in spending.
