Home Just in Time! .... for the BBT5!


Not sure how many of the events I will be playing in, but I will reload and see how it goes. Last year I had a TOC seat early on, but did not get to play it. No date set, but I am definitely planning to get to Vegas for a few days while I am on leave.

EDIT: Oh ya, a welcome back invite to the freeroll would be nice =)

Over the Hill

Went over the hill during demob. Technically we aren't supposed to leave the post, but AC is just an hour and a half away from Ft Dix, and my boss (a LTC) was driving. I would have preferred to finish my demob and go home, but we are stuck until Friday to finish medical.

Checked into Resorts and walked over to the Taj poker room. Kinda dumpy compared to Foxwoods and Mohegan Sun imho. The tables seemed really close together, and the room appeared to be well worn.

Table one +550 after about 4 hours of play. Caught a set of 3s early on for a nice pot. Lost top two vs a turned set later on which sucked. Doubled up with an AK 4 flush all in on the flop. Doubled up again with a set of 7s and a rivered boat vs an over pair. Poker is easy when you run good.

Table two earned a few pots with some value bet bluffs and AK vs AQ. Never had a pocket pair larger than 99 the whole night. +450 for a nice +1000 total on the evening.

Tomorrow we have another nothing day and Friday I should be cut loose on terminal leave.
