Warning: This is nothing more than a brag post.
Last night I convinced my friend Justin to come out and play poker with me out at the bowling alley. They have 1/2 cash tables seven days a week. I hadn't gone in awhile and pretty much just needed to play some cards. Before we even walked in there I told him that I was feeling the money tonight. We get in there and I wait about twenty minutes for a table, finally get an open seat so I buy in for $100, mainly because I can't really afford to use much more than that.
First table: Everyone is playing pretty tight I hit a couple hands make some v-bets and c-bet bluff and get up to about 220 pretty soon. I get into trouble later on when I make a pretty questionable raise with QcJs from the bb. I raise to 10, folds around to the cutoff who calls (he's kinda been playing pretty loose) and then boom, dealer raises to like 25. . .I figure wth and call knowing that cutoff is calling that all day. flop is xsxsQs. I check, cutoff checks and dealer bets something dumb like 20, I call, cutoff pushes in for like 10 more me and dealer both just call. Turn is Qd, at this point I was kinda nervous and bet like 21 dealer hesitates and calls river is a spade. . I check, dealer bets 30 and I call hoping she has tens or some shit, but she turns over KK with the flush and cutoff flips the As. That was a pretty dumb hand but it was like my only bad hand of the night. After that I get back up to like 270ish without seeing another showdown. Our table gets small and then broken up so I move to another table that my buddy Justin is at.
Second Table: During a couple breaks in between hands, Justin was telling me how crazy his table was. I sit down and get dealt in utg right away. Pretty active table everyone starts talking about how they wanted it to be a family pot so I look down and see pocket tens and raise to ten I get about 4-5 callers. to my left dealer sb and bb fold. Flop is 7J2, I'm feeling pretty good about it so I bet out 20, I get one caller. . turn is 10 so I'm a little tipsy which means I get really friendly in a wierd way. So I'm like "Listen bud. . .I got a pretty good hand. So I don't wanna bet too much and scare you away, but you don't have that many chips left." So I bet 20 again and he pushes for like 5 more and I call and he flips over 99 ez hand. After that the table just kind of exploded allins left and right crazy hands, people callin all in bets on the turn with no pair no draw hoping for the river. Anyway this place we go to can only sell a maximum of 15,000 in chips for the night, and on tournament nights they sell out pretty early, and the only way to buy in once they sell out is to buy from another player. So this older Asian guy gets up and goes and talks to this younger Asian guy, and young Asian guy obv wants to buy chips so I'm all like hush hush "Yeah, I'll sell you some chips," cause I had a lil over 300. So I get up and go into the other room so the pit boss doesn't see us and sell him the chips. He sits at our table about four seats to my left. The first hand this guy is in I get dealt QQ in about middle postion. Fuckin beautiful. So I raise to 17 and get two callers, one of them being the young asian guy. The flop comes 884 and I'm first and bet out about 25, the other caller folds and this Asian guy just looks at me staring me down for like 3 seconds and says "Awwin" for about 70ish more. Back to me and I'm like "Fuck. He could have that 8. . .but naahhhhh. I call all day." I confidently flip over my queens and he looks at me and shakes his head and says "Ohh I no think you call" and turns over Kqo. Turn A river blank ez money  ). So yeah this guy just shipped me all the chips I just sold to him and now he's busto again. lol. So now he gets up from the table and goes over to the older Asian guy, whispers something and then heads into the other room. The old Asian guy is like "You go sell him more?" I'm like "lol ya" So I go and sell him some more chips and he comes back to the table. After that I didn't really have any monumental hands. . .just a couple good ones. One that really stuck out above the rest was a 9 way family pot everyone limped in. . .I call with 10 9 off. Flop is nothing other than J78, with two hearts. . .I'm like booyaaabeatch. It checks to me and I just bet out 20. I get one call to my left and one to my right from this dude who was playing reeallly tight all night. . .never saw him raise a hand. Turn is a blank no flush no higher st. or anything so dude to my right (tight guy) is looking like he's gonna bet, but he stops and looks at me and says "Man, are you gonna be a bully?" I'm like "Of course" he goes "Really??" looking noticeably upset. I look back at him practically telling him I have the nuts and say "Really." So he checks and I bet out 60. The fucking dumbass to my left looks down at his cards and picks them up and shows them to his bud next to him, The dealer (who was fucking being sloppy the whooooole Goddamn night) shouts. "Exposed Cards! Hand is Mucked!!!!" The guy looks pretty upset and throws his cards in. But I'm fucking pissed I'm like "Are you fucking serious??" He looks at that dude who he force mucked and says "I just saved you sixty bucks" and then looks back at me and kinda smirks. Anyway it gets back to the nit to my right and he fucking takes forrrrever. Keeps saying "Man, good bet. Good bet." And he starts talking he's like "I wanna hit it soooo bad." He looks at me and says "Man you can't beat my draw if I hit, can you?" I'm like "No. But I fucking know what you're drawing to so you're not getting any more moneys outta me if you do." He takes so long that someone ends up calling a clock and Mr. Tardo dealer starts counting down from like a million and he finaaaly calls after saying "Good bet" like 20 more times. The river is a ten and he checks. I check behind knowing he won't call any bet of mine, and he flips Kh5h lol.
But yeah I played for about another 15-20 min and just called it quits. With the 200 in my pocket from Mr. Awwin Asian guy and what I had on the table I left with about $650. Felt soo good, I got soo nervous tho I had to go and deposit it in the bank. I hated walking around with that cash. . .especially since I'm not a balla. . . .yet. thx for reading. It was quite a night.

I think the probability of being mugged is like never |

| I have learned from poker that being at the table is not a grind, the grind is living and poker is how I pass the time | |

I remember my first time cashing out and carrying around 1k, quickest I've walked to my car ever lol.
Grats on running / playing well, that sounds like a sick cash game.
You should bet closer to the pot -- it might be scary to live players at first but when you do it all the time they call u down so light and u get way more value out of your hands.
