Slept until 11:00 today so I couldn't sleep tonight. Good thing. I got on Bodog for a little .5/.10 PLO8, which, if you read my previous posts you know I'm not that good at. There were two maniacs at the table that I was dying to get in a hand with. One was mainly donating, the other was a luckbox from hell whose stack was experiencing $5 swings every third hand. He managed to amass $60 in chips by hitting with some ugly hands and taking a lot of medium sized pots with unchecked aggression. Initial attempts with slightly above average hands didn't go well, leading to a rebuy. I decided to tighten up and wait for a spot.

I complete the small blind with a trashy A5JQ, suited ace. Flop came 9T2 with two of my suit. I bet, not one but both maniacs call. Turn 3, I check, maniac1 bets pot ($4.25), maniac 2 calls, and I call. Flop is the king of hearts, giving me the nut straight with no possible low. I was so focused on missing my club flush draw that I checked, not realizing that I had the nuts. Maniac 2 pots it and I push the rest in, taking down a $60.54 pot at a .05/.10 PL table! My new best friend turns over 6778 with two clubs!!!! Drunk?

If you don't multitable Bodog is the dog's bollocks. The players are truly awesome (vide supra). I made a $60 deposit last week and I'm up to $144 already. Not sustainable but pretty sweet for now!
