Monday night! Ha. Suzie's birthday and we went out to L'Amour de la Femme (highly recommended) with The Deerhunter and his luv-er-ly missus Carls. Great food and good company. Went home for a few (more) quieties, and the gals settled down in front of Desperate Housewives or something like that. Shockin' shit! So Deerhunter and I snuck out to 'The Rumpus' for a few hands and, truth be known, cones!
It was a friendly game, just for a laugh. He was telling me all about 'The Professor, The Banker and The Suicide King' book that I leant him over dinner. Raved about it. Can't wait to read it myself, but I'm still ploughing thru Harrington 1!
First hand I get dealt Big Slick offsuit. I raised it up $25, and he called. Flop comes A-A-rag! I bet out $25 again (just wanting to build the pot while keeping him in the hand). Turn card comes K! Nut book baby! Another $25, call. River rag. I bet $50. He calls. Fuck did we laugh.
Played for probably an hour. Ebbs and flows. Pushed me off a few pots with not much, so I changed up my style a smidge. (We always show hands, so we learn about each others thought processes.) Got dealt a heap of PP's but the flop never helped me. Didn't have trips once. One hand I limped with shite, and flopped a 3 on a J-10-3 flop. I bet 300, he raised to 600 and I reraised to 900. "What have you got?" he remarked, and he folded. He showed me A-8 off. Fuggen funny.
Last hand of the night (after the luv-er-ly Carls popped her head in to 'The Rumpus' and said she was going!) he pushed all in. I called (thinking he had ATC and was just doing it for a larf).
I tabled J-2 off.
He flipped over Bullets! Ha! What a wanker!
Monday night!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BTW - We're off to Flinders Bay, Augusta this Friday for 3 nights of mayhem and poker!
Can't wait!
