I played at a friends house, $10 buyin blinds are $.10 $.20. In about an hour and a half I am at $35. The first hand I am dealt QQ. Some guy raises to $.80, I reraise to $2. He calls. Flop is KJT. I check. He bets $.60. (less than his raise before). I call. Next card is an Ace. I bet like $1.50. He calls. River is blank. I bet $2, he raises $2. I think about it (but not really) then go all in, he calls with like K shitty kicker. Double up first hand.
Many hands go by, I'm winning some small pots, not getting into too much trouble. I'm at about $35 when this hand came up.
I have AT and I raise preflop as BB to $1.00. Two callers. Flop is AhTc8h, I bet $3, guy to my left raises min. Guy to his left calls immediately. I think very hard about this, I'm trying to determine if one of them has a set. I decide against that and I raise $15 (this puts them both all in.) They both call. Guy to my left has A8 for top and bottom pair, other guy has Kh2h (WTF?). An 8 comes on the turn to give the guy to my left a boat and he takes the pot.
Great, my $35 stack is now at about $15. Few hands later I have AK suited UTG, I bet to make it $.80, some guy raises me little more than the min, i reraise my stack he calls with pocket T's, I hit an Ace then he hits a T.
Overall I played very well tonight. I am not at all upset with my play. However, I do want to mention that I hate poker, and I do not know why I keep playing. Maybe it's just for those nights when I do well, I love those nights much more than nights like this :)
