First time in a while

Man, this is the first poker related post in a long time. I played a little on FT tonight. I had not been playing much NLHE lately. Been doing mostly mixed games. So, I decided to play some NLHE tonight. I did OK. Played the low limits. I busted out 11th in a 90 man S & G. It was a tough hand.

I was in the SB with AcQc. I was against one player from the cut off. I just barely had him covered. Flop was nice:

Ad 10c 6c

I was ready to take out the cut off. I raised, hoping for a RR and got it. I pushed and he insta-called. Once he insta-called I knew I would need a club or a Q. I was right. He had AK. I missed and was left with barely enough to cover the ante. Doubled up a couple times...but the end was near.

Played a 9 man S & G as well. Got down to heads up with the chip lead (10,000 to 3,000). The guy raised from the button and I re-raised with KQ. He pushed over the top of me. I called and he showed K3. Ship it...right? Well except that the flop was K 3 4. Turn 3. I was drawing dead.

So now it's 6K vs my 7K. Same thing happened later too. Got him to put his money in with A4 Vs my A10. Yea...he caught a 4. Oh well. I ended up going out second. I was getting frustrated and push with a Kh8h. You know what sucked...he called with KQ. The only thing is...his KQ held up.

Well, it was nice to play some NLHE. It had been a while. I am still looking forward to the next mixed game night though.

Later
