Got back from Minnesota yesterday. Got to play at Canterbury Park on Saturday night. I went 4 for 4.
I got there, put my name on the list for 8/16, 15/30, and 30/60. 30/60 wasn't running, so 15/30 was the biggest game they had running with two tables and a must move running.
I walked around for a bit, had a beer, and then decided to play 4/8 while waiting for a seat. I post my BB see a free flop and fold. SB, I complete with QTs, flop a straight draw and an over card on a J8x board, and fold the river when I miss. They call me for 8/16 while I am playing this hand, and I ask what the rule is. The dealer tells me I can play my button and then one more hand and then I have to move. Ok, kind of sucks, seems like I should be able to play the entire orbit since I paid my blinds, but whatever.
Next hand I muck my button and the blinds chop. Last hand I open with pocket 4's, the SB 3-bets, and I call. I flop a set, on a A high board, he bets, I raise, and then he calls down, and I win.
Then I go to 8/16, and wait to post my big blind. UTG limps, folds over to the small blind who raises, I 3-bet 66 in the big blind, UTG calls, SB calls. Then they call me for 15/30, sheesh. Flop comes A62. SB bets, I raise, limper folds, and SB calls me down, and I fill up in the river and he flashes me ATo. I play my SB and button and muck both of them, and then leave for 15/30.
First hand at 15/30, I post the big blind and pick up 22. I call a MP raise and flop a set AGAIN. However, I lose this hand to flush. So in the matter of about 10 hands I flopped three sets! Pretty unlikely. I play 15/30 for a while and get up about $150 or so, when they start a 30/60 game.
First hand I play at 30/60 is pocket aces, in which I turn a set, and fill up on the river. Most of the night I stay pretty much even, not getting up more than a couple of stacks or getting down more than a couple of stacks. Then in the last 45 minutes I go on a big rush and win the following hands:
74s, I flopped a pair and a straight draw. I turned 2-pair, got a check/raise in, and then got to bet/3-bet the river when I filled up.
KK, I raised in EP, next up 3-bet me, everyone else cleared out, I called. Flop came ten high rainbow, and I check/raised. Turn was a blank, I bet/3-bet. River paired the board, I bet and he mucked. I courtesy show.
AKs, 5-bet capped preflop 3-ways. I flop a monster draw on a 245 two diamond board. I bet, next up raised, cold-call, I call. Turn was 7d. I check, bet, fold, I raise, call. River was 3d. I bet, crying-call by black kings who was drawing dead on the turn.
ATs, 2-bet 3-ways preflop, with me being the aggressor. Flop comes J85, 1 spade. I bet, button calls, limper calls. Turn is a 9 spades. Limper bets, I call, button raises, limper calls. River is a 4 spades. Limper checks, I check, button bets, limper calls, I raise, button angrily calls, limper folds. Button has a horribly played top-set of jacks. This is the same player that I beat with the 74s and the AKs, who is now on massive tilt.
T9o, I 3-bet a tight EP raiser who likes to fold on the flop when he misses on the button, tilter calls from the SB. Flop comes KTx. Tilter bets all 3 streets and I call him down. He opens 55, and I drag another pot.
Good times, and I win 2 racks.
