I like drawings...

So I am back at it going to the casino (reservation) playing 2-4 and trying to pick up some of the nice promotions and perks they have. My first full day back, I end up only winning $1 from the 2-4 game, nothing from the free slot play, and $5 from the casino points. However, I find out that a guy that I met from there, who we agreed to give one another $50 if we hit a drawing on Monday or Wednesday that pays $500, got his name pulled. And just like the gentleman he is, he handed me $50 once I seen him. Sot that turned my day into a $56 win. Still way below the $135 expectations for today, but hopefully I will make it up later this week.

On a higher note, my Full Tilt play today documented below, moved my Full Tilt BR to over $110. This allowed my to move up my stakes and play $5 SNG and $2 MTT provided my BR is over $110. Check out below how I did!

Full Tilt Beginning Balance - $105.38

$.05/$.10 NL Holdem Cash Game - Buy-in $5.00

I was able to make a little money on some pots won by top pair. The big pot came when I had called with pocket threes in middle position and everyone folded but the big blind. I have about $8 in from of me and the BB has a little over $5. The flop comes 773 and we both check. The turn comes a King and we both check. The river comes a 10 and for some reason he goes all-in. I call instantly and he turns over 7-4 and I take down the pot with my threes full. I cash out the very next hand $13.52 for a profit of $8.52.

$.05/$.10 Omaha Hi/Low PL Cash Game - Buy-in $5.00

I play for a bit making a little money when I win nut low four handed. I cash out $6.62 for a $1.62 profit.

$2.25 Omaha Hi/Low PL SNG - 9 players

I was down to 225 in chips with 6 players left. I doubled up three times in a row to get my stack to about average. I then bust three players on one big scooper hand to take the chip lead and never looked back. I finish 1st in a big comeback victory and took down a $9 prize.

$5.50 Horse FL SNG - 8 players

Could never get anything going and finished 6th and out of the money. Not too good for my 1st $5 tourney.

$2.25 NL Holdem MTT - 27 Players

I hang around for as long as I can and on the big blind with 4 limpers with 13 players left and my chips at $1300 compared to the 80-160 blinds, I get pocket sevens and go all-in. I get one caller with A3 of hearts and he catches an Ace on the river to eliminate me 13th and out of the money. Not too good for my 1st $2 Multi-tourney.

$5.50 Omaha Hi/Low FL SNG - 9 players

I hang with an average stack for awhile, stealing blinds when I can and out betting scary flops. When it got down to the three of us left I had a small chip lead. However, I tried hard to push any of the other two players out and they would not die. We played for about 15 minutes 3 handed til yours truly finished 3rd and a $9 prize.

Full Tilt Ending Balance $118.06
