Cash Game

Not much was going on for the day so I decided to go to Jokers Casino at noon and play some live.  This is a cash game that will only last one hour till the tournament starts.  The game is a $2 - $6 limit and I buy in with $30.  I normally buy in short because it only goes for the hour and I try to pick up some chips and then go home.

 

I sit down in the #5 seat and the first cards dealt to me are AA.  I decide to slow play them since this group will basically all call the $2 pre-flop.  And yes they did.  Now I just need to see what the flop holds for me.  When it came out I was relieved that it was a rainbow board and then decided to start building the pot.  I ended up with one person through the river showdown and my Aces did hold up for a nice pot.  I was now over $50 in chips.

 

Two hands later I look down at JJ and this time I raised and was followed by most of the callers.  This one went to showdown as well and I had picked up another J on the turn so it was nice and my chip stack was up over $70 at this point.  The decision now was how long do I want to sit there since there are other people waiting to get into the game and we had about 30 minutes to go before the tournament started.  I stayed long enough to give back chips down to $60 and was happy with the double up and picked up my chips with about 15 minutes left in the game.

 

Now I am ready to head off to Wildhorse Casino in Pendleton and play the tournament.  Hope it will be a good game.

 

Have a fun day......
