Bob's Bellagio

Played at a home game tonight...Bob's Bellagio Poker Room. Bob is a nice guy, he appears to love his Vodka Martini's... Olive and onion included.

In attendance were 10 players...five college frat boys, three older gentlemen, one 30 something guy (God I hope he is 30 something, if not sorry) and the token female... a.k.a. Me.

Bob runs a good game, good tournament structure, good people. I was pretty card dead tonight, played a few hands, I know every time I was in a pot I was behind but after only playing one hand per hour at that point I could raise it with 7 Deuce off suit and take down the blinds and antes.

Two hands to tell you about, both mistakes. In position, player UTG raises twice the big blind, I haven't had a decent hand in hours, I look down have big slick suited... I think for awhile... I have the big blind behind me still to act... I call which was the mistake. I should have pushed all in but didn't, big blind also calls. Flop Q blank blank. Big blind checks, UTG player raises all in. At this point I still have BB to act behind me.... I fold... That was the right move at that point, the mistake was the just calling pre-flop, I should have pushed pre-flop or folded. UTG player had ace queen.

Last hand of the night, early position... I raise all in with 5 / 3 suited clubs... 2 callers, one with pocket Queens to win it and knock me and the 30 something guy out.

Had a great evening.

Bob rules!!!

Peace
