Return of the 4/8 Superstar

Since the Superdonk and I both had Friday night off and gas prices are way down, we decided a trip to our old stomping grounds was in order. The creek hadn't changed much...in fact, as I sat down in the seven seat I noticed Steve (big white guy reg, looks like kyle gass just not bald) and Su in the four seat (her husband Steve was playing NL.) The Superdonk ended up occupying the one seat, and the rest of the table was a smattering of LPP donks...it was going to be a good day.

Steve left pretty early, so I remember thinking the only players I really had to worry about was the SD and Su...but Su doesn't play incredibly well and me and the SD tend to stay out of each other's way for the most part.

I ran pretty good in the first hour or so...won a nice pot with a flopped set of aces on a four flush board and somehow no one had a diamond...you know, really odd stuff like that. I was up $100 for most of the night until I hit an absolute sick run of cards in my last hour or so at the table.

I won a kill pot with a goofy 75 soooooted hand...I think there was a couple limpers, I limped behind. Flop gave me a gutshot, so I bet with position and hoped to get a free river card. Everyone called...turn I hit my gutterball. Weeeeeeee. Checked to me and I bet, three callers. River was a blank, checked to me, one caller.

Anyway, it's taken me a week to write this and I can't remember anything else, but I cashed out +$430...wow, 50bbs+, obviously a sick run. Oh, shorthanded I got Aces once and Jacks once, both in kill pots...that helped out a lot. Anyway, I have an update for 12/12, so check back in a couple days for that.
