Personal Best

As you can probably tell, I had an awesome weekend in Borgata. In fact, i hit my best win of +$2110 in less than 24 hours at a 1-2 game.

Thursday night I went over to Liu's place in Rutgers to crash there so that Eng and I could get an early start the next day. After some lunch at Penang we hit the road and arrived at Borgata at around 6:30. By 7 we were both playing at seperate tables. My table was okay but things got pretty slow and there was little action, so i took a seat at eric's table. There were much bigger stacks and more action so i figure as long as i'm patient and play my normal game i should get paid. Within a couple hours i was sitting on 1k after doubling up from this Armenian guy.
He was playing pretty wrecklessly, jamming and overbetting pots by ridiculous amounts. So this was the hand.
I have A2 in the sb and flop comes A 6 2. Unraised pot and i bet $7. Folds around to the Armenian who takes out a stack and raises to $100ish. I thought for a bit and then moved in. The guy INSTACALLS, so now i'm thinking okay...gg. Turn is a T and river J. He shows AK...LOL. After that pot i won a few more hands and by 5am decided to call it a night and get some sleep. Cashed out with $1260 and still being in for my original 300 gave me an overall win of $960.
Unfortunetly, on my way back to the car i couldn't help but play some craps and lost all my money...
Fine, that didn't happen.
After about 6 hours of uncomfortable sleep, i washed up and headed back to work.
It was a Saturday afternoon and the Borgata poker room was absolutely packed. There must've been atleast 20 1-2 games going. Some 2-5 games looked ridiculous but despite my little win i decided to be patient and grind out some more 1-2.
While i was walking in some clown in a business suit points to me tellin me to come sit at his table but i just kept walking...for now lol.
Eng was still down a couple hundred and there weren't any open seats at his table so i grabbed a seat at a nearby one since there were literally a million 1-2's.
A few hands in I flop a set with 33 and win like $75. The table was pretty dead so i took an open seat at the guy's table who called me over before. It was nothing personal, but he was sitting with like 800 and there were some pretty nice stacks at that table. Plus, i'm sure it would be fun to play him.
Now this jackass was just a funny character. He had the whole flashy "i know what i'm doing, i'm better than you" thing goin for him but his play was the complete opposite. He was just incredibly weak. After about an hour or so i was up to $600. For whatever reason, i was paranoid that everyone at the table thought i was some dead money kid so that gave me more reason to play better. After me and eng got some lunch at Fatburger, I continued to just milk these guys and keep chipping away. The cards were in my favor but I was playing well too. $600 turned into $850, which turned into $1200 and finally at 10:00 I finished up with $1450. Eng was still down a couple hundred but it was time to go since i had that nasty drive ahead of me.
Overall i was up $2110 and completely paid back eng, leaving me with 1700.
After i got home and took a much needed shower my mom made me give her $500 since i owed it to her from paying off my bills. This left me with only $1200 which sux but its still enough to play 1-2 with comfortably so i wasn't worried.
Afterwards i headed over to Dan's house to relax for a bit. It was now 3:30am and being the degenerate that i am, i couldnt help but check out the new club in the city. Saturday night, i figured there has to be some good action goin on.
When i got to the 7th floor, i took 400 from the cage and put 100 in my pocket. The guy directed me to go to the table in the back and when i sat down i was BB with 99. I looked around and saw some pretty huge stacks and all of a sudden button makes it 40 to go.
Oooooh, this is 2-5....I guess that's a good start.
I went over to the next table and for a few hours was pretty card dead. Ended up being in for 400 and down 100 when 3 players decided to leave, leaving the game 4 handed. I didn't mind since i play better short handed anyway.
After a few hands i limp in the cutoff with 77 and sb makes it 10 to go. BB calls and i call and it goes 3 way. flop comes A J 6, 2 clubs. checks to me, i bet 25. sb folds but BB thinks about it for a second and raises to 65. There was somethin about the way he raised that made me think he was just makin a move with at best a pair of Jacks since he thought i was making a position bet. I put him all in for 80 more and he folded and i showed him a 7. Probably shoudl've just showed him both but whatever.
A few hands later it was 8am and i was up to 500 even so i decided to take my 100 profit and leave.
I had taken a job for Party Kings or somethin because Mike asked me last week and i said i would. The meet time was 10:30 so by the time i got home i was able to get about an hour of sleep. Apparently the job was in Livingston so I was actually able to meet at the Crystal Plaza at 11. Sweet, 1 more hour of sleep. The job went okay and i ended up getting a $50 tip in addition to the $100 for the job.
Not sure how i'm still up typing this but i'm pretty beat. Definitely need a solid nights sleep.

Overall i'm thrilled with my latest victory. These opportunities don't come around that often so now it's time to capitalize.
