Luckbox 14

Sometimes, and I do mean sometimes, you have to get lucky. Today is a day where I got real lucky, twice.  So the guy I talked about a while ago - the huge guy who doesn't stop talking - was sitting at my table.  I'll call him 007.  I wanted to snap him off.  I find AK in early position and raise.  He calls.  The flop comes 743.  I bet out $30.  He talks about it for a while and says that if he is going to call, he should just move in.  So he does.  He has $75 or so total.  I have to call the additional $45.  I do.  The turn is the 2 and the river the 5.  I runner runner the wheel.  He shows the A3. Donk.

The very next hand I am UTG with the AJd.  I limp.  007 makes it "5 straight."  By the way, I hate when people say shit like "straight" and "all day".  It's so not cool.  It's the same reason I don't wear my FullTilt hat.  Anyway, I call the extra 3 bucks.  The flop comes AJ7.  I check and huge guy bets $5.  I raise to $30.  He calls.  The turn is a blank.  I put the rest of his chips in.  It's about $60 more.  He calls.  The river is the A.  He shows JJ.  OOPPS.  So...I'm a donkey who gets lucky.

One of my last hands I have the KsKh.  I raise to $11.  Linda raises to $25.  I move her in and she show the KdKc.  Brutal.  Just annoying.  So I got lucky and unlucky.  A pretty standard day.  Not many hands.  Still a plus day.
