For Rooms: Bally's,Mandalay Bay,
Summary: Ups and Downs for a newbie
Content: Arrived on Tuesday Night. One memorable hand while playing at Ballys. In a 1/2 game, I bought in for 100 and this hand happened around the 5th hand I was dealt.I was in big blind and we had a straddle. I had pocket 5's and the player straddling had 6c/8c and another player had pocket 9's. The whole table called the straddle. On the flop came 9-5-7. Player with flopped straight bets out 25 with 2 other callers( me and pocket 9's) Being the donk that I am I go all in and have 2 callers who both have short stacks and they are all in. Pot is around 340. Turn is a 3 and the miraculous river is a 5. In a domino effect player with straight shows his hand in a confident manner and then hears the excitement from the player in late position with a full house. Players are giving him high fives and then I lay down my pocket 5's giving me a quads. A nice pot around 340 and a bonus of 250 for having quad 5's. Not a bad night. Bally's has a nice high hand jackpot which includes straight flushes and quads. When I left on Friday the highest payout for quads was pocket 8's near $570. After each quads is hit, the jackpot is reset. Interesting side note. I hit quad jacks the night before against pocket A's for a nice pot and a bonus of 80. Enjoyed the Ballys poker room. Worst memory was at Mandalay Bay. I buy in for a 100 in a 1/2 game and in first hand I call a bet of 10 with suited AQ. Flop comes 10-A-10. I bet 15 and one player calls. The turn is 2 and I check and other player checks. On the river comes a 9. I bet 20. Other player goes all in and I call. He flopped a full house A-10 and I find the atm after one hand. Oh well!.
