Hands from the Golden Nugget (Warning - poker content)   July 3rd, 2009

1/2 NL Live at the Golden Nugget. its about 4am and I must have had at minimum 10 vodka and red bulls.

I had about 4 interesting hands in the session, first was a top 2 vs set, 2nd was AA vs AA All in pre flop for a $1600 pot, 3rd was where I folded QQ to a raise on the flop on an 8 high board. 4th hand was a set vs top trips. In amongst it somewhere was this hand -

So im having a great time, had been playing for about 4 hours and was up a couple hundred. A guy raises UTG to $7, gets one caller, and a middle aged asian lady raises to $15 (Reads on her - super tight, in the couple hours I had been playing with her she had shipped in twice, both with sets. She has probably raised pre flop 5 times, and this is the first time she had 3bet Pre flop, has a stack around $600 or more). Its folded to me and I have KK, I cold 4bet to $50. Original raiser folds and the action is back on her, she instantly makes it $200 to go. I say to the table that they should see what im about to fold, and I throw the Kings face up into the middle of the table. The Asian lady looks at me kinda confused and says “you called right?!”, and I said back to her “No…im folding”. She slaps the table with her hands in frustration and flips over her AA. Yay. Half of the guys at the table come and shake my hand and congratulate me and say it was the best fold they have ever seen, ha!
