I was able to go to Atlantic City this past weekend and I finally brought home a profitI didn't really get to play too long cause I was with a group of friends and they weren't gambling much/I felt bad not hanging out with them. So I played at Borgata for about 2 hours and I walked away with $230 profit. I didn't get any hands really in the whole time I was there only winning 3 or 4 pots, best hand was like K10 or something. But the one that brought home the bacon was this little hand here
I was playing my typical 200nl NL Hold'em, sat down with the max $300. I was in the SB. UTG limped in for $2, and everyone folded around to me. So I limped in as well figuring the BB would just check see free flop. BB raised up to $10, UTG called and I had J3s, I said eh....$8 more why not. This table had been a lot of limped pots up to this point, which is why limp from UTG didn't surprise me.
Flop 2 3 3
JACKPOT! I check as first to act, I decide I'll get them later on the turn or hit big on the river. BB bets ~$10 I think, UTG calls, and I call.
Turn J
Hello Full house! I check thinking...I'll go for a c/r. BB bets out $10, UTG raises. I sit and think for a moment, is it possible BB had JJ? No way UTG had JJ and didn't raise PF. I hollywood a little, ask for a count, $45 total. I smooth call saying "I'll bet big on the river," I didn't want to scare away the BB.
BB sits there for a minute and then he shoves his stack in, I start getting nervous, but I knew I couldn't lay down. I figure he was just trying to take down the pot right there and no way he had a bigger full house than me. UTG says wow bad timing and folded. I snap called, and BB showed QJ. Huge win! Just gotta fade a J on the river, which was a blankI took down about $250 from the pot as profit. The rest of the time didn't get any thing, and took down a few decent pots with semi bluffing. So I left with about that same profit $230. Not bad $115/hr
