Great cash session
After getting knocked out of the WSOP $1,000 tournament, I sat down to play cash for about an hour. There were no $2/5 seats available when I first arrived so I passed time at the $ 1/3 game. When my name was up on the wait list, I was moved to an active $2/5 game with deep stacks. I bought in for the table maximum of $500. Two hands before the one I am going to tell you about, I mentioned to the table that I was waiting on a ride from my roommate and would be leaving after I received a text saying he was on the way.
An early position player opens for $15 which is reraised to $45 by MP+1 (middle position) to $45. The cut off flats as do I from the button with the Ac Kc. The original raiser folds. The flop is 9 high with two spades. On the flop, both of the other villains check, so I bet $85. The MP+1 folds and the CO (cut-off) calls after asking how much I am playing. The turn is a 10 of hearts. CO checks again. I bet $150 and the CO calls. The river is a beautiful club. Again the CO checks, so I go all in for $190. The CO thinks for a bit and says, “I know you got aces, but I call”. When I turn up the nut flush, this guy throws his cards nearly hitting the dealer, “You don’t know how lucky you got, Miss!” He grabs his remaining money and starts to walk away without playing the last bet. The dealer calls for him to come back. He steams as the dealer collects another $190 from this guy. I tip the dealer generously and smile.
On the flop I am actually ahead here. My turn bet, gives me odds to stay in the hand. So glad I got “lucky”. As I am stacking my chips, my roommate texts me that he is on the way, I tell everyone that I am going to take one more hand. I fold a junk hand and cash out a nice $450 profit.
