Oh Yes, the Worm has definitely turned

Despite my difficulties with AQ yesterday, today has been another good poker day.  Starting off with the Morning Moose, I hit the final table with a good chip stack and managed to win an unchopped 1st place for $280.  I then moved over to the bridge casino for their 12:00 tournament, finishing on the money bubble (my last hand, 7/7, called by 8/8).  Felt that I played really good all day...even learning my lesson with AQ, folding it to a shove and call...one had 7/7, the other j/j, with the jacks holding up...no ace or queen.

Net winnings today:   $280  gross
                                  -  55.   entry fees
                                   - 20.   dealer tip
                                   $205  net winnings.

Add this to my early winnings this week and I am up over $500, with 2/5 tournament wins, for a 40% win rate.

Awesome! I wish I could say the same - boo hoo. I think my last money win was Steve's tournament, although I took 3rd at Joker's somewhere around that same time.

As I texted you yesterday, my flopped set of kings got flushed on the river to knock me out yesterday. It was my first hand at a new table. In my opponent's defense, I would have shoved with her damned AQ too. She flopped 2 spades for the nut flush draw and turned a straight draw as well.

I hate AQ.
