poker night

Tonight is the poker night in our company.  We played Texas Hold'em after work.  There are six players come out tonight, much less than before.  Anyway, I was just coming out after the organizer called in the announcement.

I won the game again tonight.  Since 2005, I played 4 games in the company and I won 3 of them. Twice number one, and once top two and split the pot.  That's fantastic.  Seems that I have some talent in playing Texas Hold'em anyway.  I'll find out maybe years later when I have more time to play pokers.

In today's game, D was wiped out of all his chips in the first hand against me.  I had a 3-of-a-kind, which beat his 2 pairs with pocket Aces. This winning in the first hand built the base of my success in the whole game.  I was aggressive since I was the chip lead.  I had some luck tonight, with some small chances of winning hands.  Anyway, the game was fun and I loved it.

I am usually aggressively prudent when I was playing pokers.  I bluff sometimes, but I basically won't go too bluffly  in the game. I guess I am good at reading other players' hands. I raise the bet when the opportunity is calling and I am afraid of going all-in when there are chances.  I should study more about the Texas Hold'em, maybe I really has some knack of it.  Winning the game in the company 3 out of 4 games are definitely not just lucky.  Maybe most of the players in our company are lousy players. :-)
