Hi Everyone!

Hope everyone had a happy Easter. My family had various festivities over the weekend, culminating with a weekend get-together with 60 other kids and their parents at one of the local farm-like hangouts. Hung out, drank a little, the kids ran around looking for eggs, did a potluck-style deal with everyone bringing something. There was so much food, it was ridiculous. Too much really.

Spent the day at the beach on Thursday, (had Thu-Sun off) just the wife and me, took a book and drove out about an hour to a secluded beach, put up an umbrella, and lounged for 4-5 hours. Was lovely. Nothing to hear except for the crashing waves. Pure bliss.

Got in a little bit of poker this weekend, not much. Here are a few of the more interesting hands that I was involved in. At the end of it all, my roll yo-yoed up $100, down $100, and ended up at about $2,365.

Here are some of the high(low)lights:

Forgot to save this hand history, and don’t have them automatically saving to the hard drive, but the summary was I get involved with a villain with about $65, I have about $100. I raise to $3.50 with AcKc and he re-raises to $10. I call. Flop comes Jc7c3d. We get all of the money in at that point after a raise, re-raise and all-in, and he turns over QQ. I am actually a 55-45 favorite to win the pot at this point, but the turn and river blank, and I lose about $65 on the hand.

Here are some others that I actually saved the histories on…

Not much else to speak of really. Got caught bluffing a couple of times, and then chased an open-ended straight flush draw with some big betting all the way to the river with 4 other guys in the pot that cost me some bucks. If I would have hit, it would have been a monster pay-off.

Anyways, no poker for a few days, will update again when I get in some hours.

Thanks for reading, as always.
