I'm going to kill two bird with one stone here. I'm going to tell you how my visit to the Foxwoods Poker room went by posting some hand analysis in the process. So, I went to the $1/$2 No Limit poker table and bought in for $60. Needless to say, It didn't go so well. I was getting nothing and the average raise was $15! I was dealt 
in the small blind. Everyone folds to me. I raise it to $15 and the big blind calls. The flop comes: . I bet $10 and she (big blind) calls. The turn: . We both check. The river: . She bets $25 which is about all I had left. She hasn't been in a lot of hands but she was also in the Big blind so she probably has somethign like Q, J or K, J. She might even have a low pair. I was confident she ah dnothing so I called. She turns over . I say nice hand and throw my cards ino the muck.
I figure I learned my lesson and I got soem information from a lot of thew players at my table. I rebought for $40. Now, I get dealt on the button. Not bad so I raise $10. Two middle position players call as well as one player to my left. The flop comes:
. I bet $15. The two middle position players fold but the player on my left calls. The turn comes . "Oh Shit" I thought. I chekc she bets $20, I call reluctantly. For soem reason, I didn't think she had an Ace. The river is . She checks and I check. She has . I win the pot.
Next hand I got involved with I was dealt . A player in early position raises it to $10. This early position player likes to get involved in a lot of pots. One middle position calls. I call and well as the big blind. The flop comes: . Early position player bets enough to go all in. The middle position player calls. I call becuase I figure I probably have an overcard. I have a gutshot straight draw and a longshot nut flush draw. The Big Blind calls as well which puts him all in.
Early Position:
Middle positon:
The turn is a and the river was a blank. I win the chips.
One more hand I like to mention before I end this thread. I was dealt on the button. Everyone folds to one late position player who raises it to $20. I call. Everyone else folds. The flop:
. The late position players bets $25. I go all in which is another $27. Now, this guy took a lot of my chips on a great hand earlier so i know he has something good. He thinks about for awhile with a disgust on his face then reluctantly calls. He shows
. My queens hold up.
I went into that poker room with $100 and walked away with $157. Then, I lost it all on Carribean Stud but that's another story. I should have kept playing in the poker room.
