New Mexico Poker-YIKES


What is it with casino poker players? So I take a trip to New Mexico with a friend to ski, just so happens there's a casino at almost every block, not quite but u get my drift. Sandia Resort and Casino, nice place but wow, they need to throw some holdem classes DAILY. Anyway, they have the norms, 1-2 holdem, and 4-8 limit, two pretty good games. I decide to take 100 into 1-2, yeah my all-in for around 40 bucks got called by QJ off suite with a guy who didn't have that much, wow, of course, he rivers a jack. The day after next a take 40 into 4-8, i take the 40 to around 80 then catch pocket Kings........he calls me all the way down with a pair of fives and then hit his second card the nine on the river, yes, he was holding 9-5 off suite, he took down a 55 dollar pot. WHAT AN IDIOT.........ok, enough of that, but the ski resort was good to me, nice people and a ton of snow, im talking 76". yeah....good stuff.

I missed the clara birthday tournament and more importantly, the new pokeroom with new paint and fixtures, jk clara ; ). but good job on that guys, looks great from the pictures.

Here's a pic of the casino, nice but wow, the vacancy of talent within the walls of the pokerroom.
