Played some poker tonight. Took second in a $30 1-table NLHE SNG for about $50 in profit, 3rd in a $20 1-table NLHE SNG for about another $15 in profit, and played in a third $20 NLHE SNG for no result. Then I managed to blow about $20 at a PLO table, getting CRAZY money in good against a complete fuckin' maniac, and having the numb sonofabitch draw runner-runner to two pair against me (I had an overpair, and against this freak, there was no question it was good). Went all the way down from my $100 buy-in to about $26 at the low point, then made it all back in two hands, first busting two people (including the maniac) with quad queens, and then taking a guy down when my TTsJsA hand hit a flop of 7s 9s Qh, and I wound up all-in against a dude that wound up having AAsKsXs. I got lucky and hit the offsuit 8, then dodged a spade (with the two of us having spade draws, and him with the extra, there were only 6 left in the deck). With the straight flush draw, I couldn't fold, but if I'd had mirrors and seen that he did, in fact, have the bigger spade draw, I might have considered it. At least it worked out this time. Net win tonight of just a few bucks, but it beats losing :)
