We arrive at Choctaw Casino after I took Counting Girl to the land to check my traps. The other day I was messing around at the creek and noticed a Bur Oak tree that was huge on the creek. Counting Girl has been wanting a Bur Oak for a long time but I didn't want one in the yard because the acorns are so big. Well after checking the trap I drove by the Oak and showed her that she has her very own Bur Oak, not only that there are a number of them and they are beautiful. She teared up and it was a lot of fun watching her call her mom to tell her that she had her very own Bur Oak tree.
We're not at Choctaw 15 minutes before I get AA. I do my usual $7 dollar raise and this is the best way on a 1/2 table to hit a big hand. I get 5 callers, YES! Flop is J 3 5 rainbow, good one for me and I bet $50 to take it down. Fold, fold, ALL IN!!!!!!! Shit, the guy only has $58 total, and another guy only calls the $58. The guy in seat 7 has a huge stack and I've played him before so I know he has something but I figure he is more speculating that anything. BUT, at this point I realize he has made a great call because I can only call the $58, I can't raise because the small stack hasn't completed a raise. I give a smile and now I know I'm playing poker. I love playing against good players where you have to mix it up. NOW WE'RE PLAYING POKER BABY AND I LOVE IT!!!!!!! So I call and wait for the turn card. BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!!!!!
A of spades on the turn, I've tripped up and now I'm sure I have them beat but there is two spades on the board. All in and the number seven seat calls. I figure the first kid for a set and not to sure about seat 7. I'm hollering in my head to pair the board and there it is. 5h hits the board and it has paired and I have the boat. First kid turn over pocket 3's and he flopped a set and boat on the river. Seat 7 has 3 5 and hit the boat on the river. I have the bigger boat. Yes sir, triple up the first 15 minutes.
I spend the rest of the night pissing away a couple of bucks at a time. Counting girl finally gets on a roll and she is up $300 so we cash out another $400 for the night and end up $713 dollars for the weekend. Not a bad haul considering we were grinding all weekend. Till next time.
