This is funny. Even if you don't really understand the game of Pot Limit Omaha. I don't, I still laughed a lot. If you like Rounders, check it out, you'll laugh. And you'll be confused. But you'll still laugh.

Sitting Again
I played another couple of SnGs today. I took the first one quite handily, then I came in second... ... a very distant second. After that, I was feeling pretty good about my abilities, so I sat down at one of the 100/200 (play money) tables to try to earn some play money bank. And I got my socks rocked off. Seriously, three hands to go through 4000. I sat down and people there read my as easy money. And I didn't disappoint. Ahh well, alls well that ends well... and I didn't loose any real money, so I'm pretty happy with myself.

SnG
Sitting down at a Sit and Go poker game is fun. Fast. And when you win, even better. The best part about this win, however, was that when we got to heads up, I was down something like, 11k to 6.5k in chips. I then proceeded to completely trounce this guy. I'm not kidding. I killed him. He was playing well up til then, but suddenly he was making bad calls and not pushing me hard enough and... well... I killed him. He didn't win one hand that I didn't fold. Not one. I was very pleased with myself.
Right now. Not so much. But, hey, that's another table, and another game. I'm going to stop playing in a second and get ready for work.

Washout
So. I completely washed out. I had pocket Ks, flopped 6 10 8. In a three way pot, I was left of the button and checked, to the let of me raised 30, the third saw, and I raised to 90. Left raised again and the third dropped out. I figured left of me had pair of 10s, maybe a flush draw. So I hit them for 500. Now, remember, I also really didn't care if I won. Normally I would've called and just ended it there, but then I was raised... At this point I was either left with 480, or all in. I went in. They had 7 9 spades. I laughed, said goodbye and now I can go get me some clam chowder stuffs.
