Donkament action

I will post in English from now on to make the weblog available to more persons, including my girlfriend. I was so tired yesterday that I fell asleep at 8:00 pm in the evening, and I woke up again at around 5:00 am. This is what we call a bad case of jet lag :(

After lingering for 2 more hours and watching some TV I decided to head for the buffet.
The buffet costs a whopping 6,4 dollars. Thats like 4 euro's or whatever. The buffet has all kinds of food including typical American breakfast products like sausages, pancakes and hamburgers, but also has pie, Mexican food, "Japanese" food and fruit. You won't find a lot of people getting an apple though.

After this I decided to head for the Planet Hollywood Casino and play a 60 dollar buy-in tournament, because the structure is probably one of the best in town (at least the best of the casino's I checked so far). U get a starting stack of 4000 points, with blinds starting at 25-50. From here on you get 50-100, 100-200, 200-400, 300-600, 500-1000, 1000-2000. These last 2 levels make it pretty much a push or fold game.

I was playing extremely well, I had most guys figured out and exploited every weakness. I also got aces that paid of rather well; I hit a set on the flop (all clover board) and pushed all-in on a blank turn. I got called by a guy that hit a pair on the turn and had a flush-draw. Luckily the river was another ace, giving me quads. I wish this would have happened in a cash game, I would have got a pretty nice high hand jackpot for it.

At the 5k level I pushed all-in on the small blind with JTos with 1 limper. Unfortunately the limper had AQ and made an easy call. I didn't put him on such a big hand :( I lost around 5k chips of my 8k here. The next hand I picked up KQos and pushed allin with 1 limper in front. Unfortunately for me the BB had AA. It's a shame because the BB had allready called with KJ, I would have had him dominated. O well, it can't be helped.

So I'm now down 85 dollars on gambling. No biggie. I'm prolly going to play some 200 NL tonight. The level of play seems very low on 1-2 NL, so I might win a bit. You never know though :)

By the way it's really extremely hot here, the sun is really hot. I'm glad I returned
kinda early today, before you know it you have a zonnesteek.

Now let's eat some meat at the dinner buffet :)
