It’s been an interesting 2 weeks.  First, some drunken moron sliced a power pole 3 houses down from me at 4 in the afternoon.  Had I been home, I am reasonably sure he would not have survived the aftermath of the accident.  We have a lot of kids in our neighborhood and they can be found riding bikes and whatnot most of the time.  To be driving drunk, fast enough to go through a pole at that time is just inconcievable to me.

What does this have to do with poker you ask?  Well, my internet was out as a result for over 3 days and then was spotty at best until yesterday.  I was able to log on for more than 5 mins and stay on for a while.  Bad thing though, I was able to stay on long enough to drop 4 BI last night.  I honestly didn’t feel as though I played badly, just your basic bad luck.  One memorable hand, I raised to $1.40 pre with AQh from the button after two limpers.  SB and the 2 limpers see the flop of Q48 rainbow (1 heart).  Early limper bets .50 to a pot of around $6, folds to me and I toss out about $4.75.  SB folds and early limper calls.  Turn is 3h, limper checks and I bet the pot. Of course he calls, river is 7x.  He pushes his remaining $8 or so into the pot and I have to call here.  He flips over Q7!  LOL  Much of the night went this way for me.

Don’t know if I should have played it any differently, I just felt like I had a good idea of what he had and was unlucky on the river.  Any comments?

Gonna go play some more now, good luck and hope to see you on the tables.
