Back to the Grind!
I had a pretty relaxing time away from poker. I went back home to SD for a week and a half, saw some friends, bought a car, played very very little poker, and just rested I guess. Oh I got fatter : / But March went well!

This weekend was good tho! My friend came down and we went to Barona Casino and played some NL. Haha, I was there an hour before him and when he came to my table, I said: Nick, I will check-raise the sh** out of you so badly!
Less than 5 hands into the table, the following hand comes up:
1-3 NL, $300 stack sizes
Nick raises from MP, Random LP calls, I call with 88 from the SB.
Flop:
8 A 10 - Mike Sexton: BINGO BANGO BONGO VINCE, MikeySong just flopped a set!
I check - Vince: Oh I like what he's doing here, setting the trap, covering it with twigs and leaves, Nick has no idea what's in it for him!
Nick bets $30, LP calls, "$100 MORE!", Nick goes into the tank, and then shoves, I call, LP folds and Nick shows A10 for top two pair. Turn n River blank and I stack my buddy from Irvine in less than 10 minutes, haha, I felt bad tho : )
The day was really profitable for me. I'm definitely going to work on my no limit game before the wsop. I think I missed some good value bets and misplayed a hand due to scared money (in short: we later jumped up to 2-5 and I didn't want to risk $1000 with Kings vs. a tricky player)
I ended the day +980, but really 920 as we flipped for $20s a few times while waiting for dinner. Doh!
Oh, while at the 1-3 table, we were talking about flipping, my friend mentioned he didn't want to become like Grimstar and then this one LAG to my direct left says, YOU'RE A 2p2ER?! to which another kid says, I'm a 2p2er as well! I play 2/4 NL!
Um...so 4people out of 9 knew how to play NL and were probably better than me. It wasn't a hard to decision to pick up and take a break shortly after that conversation : )
I didn't have fun playing craps this time. I won but I just didn't have that much fun. I had a lot more fun flipping with my friends and I think I'll just stick to that rather than playing pit games, which I rarely do anyways.
Oh, I had a great hand on Saturday as well as a cooler. I was really bored Saturday so I went to Viejas to play some more no limit. The same LAGgy kid from Barona was at my table and within a few hands (recurring theme?), this came up.
1-3nl, $300 stack sizes
utg+1 limps, I raise Kd9d to $13 from CO, Laggy guy calls from BB and so does utg+1.
Flop: 5d 6c 7dcheck, check, I bet $30, Laggy craises to $80, utg+1 folds, and I pop it to $250.
Bam, we get it all in on the flop. Turn: 7, river: 5. My heart drops.
Dealer: show em!
Hahhaha, I didn't budge. I didn't want to flip over K high but then the Lag says, F*** I run so bad! Throws down 4,4 face up! WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
I stacked someone with K high! WHoooooooooooooooooo!
The Cooler:I got tired later on and got up to cash out. As I'm walking out, I see this cuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuute Asian dealer. Woof. I stand there watching the 3/6 lhe game. We make eye contact, she smiles at me, my heart jumps a little, she's got a really great smile. It still makes me feel a little giddy. (Am I really a poker player?) So to my fortune, 3people have to leave cuz they're going to play a tourney. I sit down and being the smoooooooooooth talker I am, I finally muster the courage to speak and say:
SO, DO YOU DEAL HERE OFTEN?
......ayyayayyay
It's ok. She was really really nice. Oh, and dude, she like, she deals right? But she doesn't play!!! She's not a degenerate!! HOTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT.
So it's time for dealers to shift tables, and when the new guy sits down, I ask:Hey, is that dealer single?
Guy Dealer: Who? Kim?! *LAUGHS* No man, we got no chance! me: no?guy: She's got a boyfriend!
*glum*
guy next to me: the important question is, does she have a boyfriend or is she married?
*hope!*
me: ya, is she?Dealer: she has a boyfriend.me: how long?Dealer: she's lived with him for a few years
*heart drops*
When the blinds came to me, I picked up and left! I left the guy dealer a $5 tip tho and said: PUT IN A GOOD WORD FOR ME :D
Mannnnnnnnnn, I was so excited too.
Goals for April:$20,000. 9 hours a day starting tomorrow April 4th, including weekends.Get in shape. Work up to 1 hour of running every other day.
Good luck everyone. Hope you all do well! Watch for a video from me soon :)
