Good morning, all.
Another solid day at spot #2, up $330. Actually got very lucky on a $600 pot, called a $20 raise preflop with pocket 7's. The flop came 678 and someone raised $15 then another player with about $300 in front of him raised to $35. I really thought about the play and decided on the preflop action I had to put him on lower than a set, so I made an isolation bet of $100 hoping he had an overpair, 2 pair etc. It turns out he had the baby end of the straight with 45 off so he had me crushed. I managed to turn the 7 for quads to take down the pot, very lucky.
Did I make the right play? I still think I did, but with that many callers and the result I'm not completely sure, it's a thinker.
Not many other opportunities for profit in that session as that was the only set I flopped and the rest was pretty break even against no blatantly LAG or LAP players, there was one guy to my right for awhile that shifted to LAG but he was extremely good and I didn't get the cards to get into any big pots with him.
Still to make more than my daily goal of $200 on a session I'd call not very eventful and that in which I couldn't catch big hands? I'll take it.
I've enjoyed my time at spot #2 and will be finishing out my time there today and tomorrow. I will be back after that but not sure when, they're not running the hours promo (in which I am still on track to cash $300 in) after this so I am going to look around for a place that is. Everyone is nice there, the food is good and thanks to them I have discovered that 1/3 is really where I should be playing, so very cool.
They also have horse racing which is nice if one should be inclined for a breather, I don't really play but I used to a long time ago - I might splash a little for fun.
Here's a picture of their track, beautiful setting -
The grind continues here in about an hour.
Best of luck in all of your endeavors today and thanks for reading
Peace.
