Work Poker

Well, its been a while since my last post, poker has been non existent for me lately! work has been hectic.

I have had 2 work poker nights, and came away un-successful on both occasions, and throwing my money away. I am not saying I am a pro player, but when you get guys that are complete noobies, the are too hard to play against, and I hate playing them! They call you with cards like 2-6 off suited, and win half of the time against your Q-Q. It can get pretty frustrating, and I think I will have to give it a rest for a while, until some bigger money tables come up, to keep away the rookies.

Work Porker Nights

©2008 PKR Pete – Well, as you might have guessed, I am a poker fan, not quite a poker player, dabbling in online poker games. But have yet to sit in a card club or casino on a ‘real’ game of poker.

At work, we have quite a few poker nights, getting up to around 15 seats. Cash buy-ins, top 3 finishers take home the cash, I have had quite a good run, out of 7 games, I have won 4, placed 2nd once, 3rd once, and a 5th place.

Today was one of the wins, small table, small cash, but I played pretty well, eliminating everyone on my way to the win, after a slow cautious start, before turning on the Gus Hansen of old, my aggressive poker player within showed up and gained a big stack and for the heads-up, I was dominating my opponent with 85% of the chips, and finishing him off with AAAQQ.

We have another Poker night coming up in July, with a bigger pot, more seats and hopefully a top 3 finish to get some of the cash.

Next stop, World Series of Poker!!! I WISH!!!
