Saturday Sept 30th - Opps

Day: 2
Total Cash: 14,753
Eric's play: - 405
Shirleys Play: +238

Well today, Eric had a little trouble. After I won the first pot I played with JJ, it was straight down hill. I didn't really ever go anywhere but down. We played for 10 hours and I was definitely not in the right mind set to play after 6. I'm lucky that I was only down 600 on the day, it could have been much worst. Shirley played solid for all ten hours, in the beginning it looked like she might have been heading towards a big loss, but after getting her last 60 dollars in after she flopped trip jacks she headed to a 3 dollar win (hahaha) I would have taken a 3 dollar win but what can ya do! The table was much more solid then the night before. People seemed to have a clue as to what was happening.
The session ended in a BANG, when Shirley and I got involved in a pot together. I had QQ and Shirley had pocket tens. I raise pre-flop, I look like a total cannon at this point, NO ONE respects my raises. Shirley in the Big Blind re-raises 3 bets. There are at least 7 ppl involved in the hand. Before it gets back to me someone says something alone the lines of, "I wanna see the hands, you guys are playing together" then he four bets. I call. Shirley calls. The board comes T97 Shirley Fires out, there is a caller then the PF capper, raises, then I re-raise, then Shirley Caps it. Everyone calls. The same guy says,"I wanna see the hands". I say out loud, "Don't worry I'll show my hand, and so will Shirley". Cause I know Shirley has a huge hand. An Ace comes on the turn Shirley bets out, the other guy raises and I fold face-up. The then starts screaming about how I can't show my hand.. blah blah blah. I told him I was going to show him that I had a big hand. The table was getting very loud, Shirley was pissed off. Anyway Shirley's set loses to J8... The guy flopped a straight. We picked up our chips and left right after the hand and left. A couple people Apoligized for the guys behavior. I think they just didn't wanted my action to go anywhere, but we left!
Anyway, we headed back to the hotel and hit the gym. Did a little work out and I had a swim. We just ordered a pizza. We are going to kick back for the rest of the evening. Might have a beer and watch a movie. We are off to Kansas City tomorrow. It is going to be a 9 hour drive, Shirley just informed me that the weather network says it is going to be 92 degrees in K.C. tomorrow. Should be nice!
Talk to you all tomorrow!!!
-Eric

Hi Eric & Shirley, This is Joe G. from Buffalo (Brantford 20-40)Just caught up on your adventures, I'm jealous, wish I was 30 yrs younger, might have tried it myself. Glad to see you guys are doing well. Colorado, sounds like a place to aviod on the return trip. I think if I lived in Col. I might give up poker. Sounds like it is very tuff for a good player to make a buck there. The games up here have great since Tournament ended. I'm trying to play 3 days a week until I leave for Florida Nov.1 If you get a chance from time to time lets us know what the rake is in some of the games you played in on the way there. and let us know what they rake or session fees in the varvious levels. Well continued Good Luck and I'll reading daily.
