My decision for Tuesday was to go to Wildhorse Casino in Pendleton to either play cash games or the tournament, play in the morning Moose tournament, or do nothing. I think I made the right decision to play the Omaha 4/8 kill cash game at Wildhorse. Buying in for $100 I immediately won a couple of hands when "the big one" came up. There were a couple of aggressive players who raised pre-flop quite a bit, usually with the A/2/XX, so when the first one raised, got a couple of callers, the second one re-raised. I decided to cap the action with my 3/3/4/Q, not really even a calling hand. Did I mention this was a kill pot? So when it got to me, I made it $32 to go, and lots of money already in the pot, just about everyone called to see the flop. It was a good flop for me with both a queen and a 4. When the pre-flop raiser bet, I raised. Everyone called, or it was re-raised (can't remember all the details). The turn was a brick for the low draws and it was bet again with nearly all calling. The river, hoping for a 3, I got another 4 instead giving me the "under-full". Checked to me, I bet and got several callers. The hand was a scooper and I calculated the pot size as around $300. It was to be the largest pot of the day and it found a good home in front of me. I ended up playing until about 3:00 and cashed out for $500. A very good day of poker. It sort of made my day when the young kid to my left said, "Sir, you are my hero".

You have to love it when the youngsters call you a hero - LOL. That's a nice haul. And you are my hero for leaving without giving it all back! That's always what I seem to do.
