Poker

Ran by Hustler for a couple hours of $2 $4 Limit. Nearly empty at one in the morning, with only $3 $6 Limit available. I took a reluctant chair at 4, but was able to move to 6 after a bit. From there I took an hours worth of unplayable hands. Every Hand was offsuit. Even as dealer, I'd be facing a cold call with ten five off.

The first real hand was checking a suited Queen Six from blind, which went to the river against the dealer. And we chopped a medium pot over a pair of queens and equal kickers. And my buyin rack was still short four blinds.

Next hand I caught a straight on the turn, only to sink to a heart flush in the river. Now down thirty or so, and ready to cut my losses.

However, Queen Nine in hearts that flopped up top pair with the Queen and went on to have a backdoor flush. A lot of action from the table as the flop held two spades and a single heart. The turn and river went with hearts, which paid off very well.

A couple other good hands put me ahead and I left about 3 in the morning.
