Default Brag - $1000 in 20 minutes live 1/2NL

BRAG:
Went to a club in NYC, and had been sitting for about 10 minutes when the following hands came up.

Hand 1 - I limp UTG with pocket 8s, MP raises to 12, gets 3 callers plus me.
5 players to a flop of Ad 8d 5s, I try for a check-raise.
UTG+1 makes it $40, UTG+2 goes all in for about $85, MP goes all in for around $135, one fold, and I push for about $220 and get a call from my left.
turn is a blank and river is a 5, giving me a boat, and the $600 pot.

two hands later - AdKd in the SB, 5 limpers, and I make it $17 to go and get one caller.
As the dealer is dealing the flop - player lifts his cards, and I see an A on the bottom.
Flop is A K x rainbow.
I check, and villain bets 40. I raise to 100 and he pushes.
I'm not too worried about AA, so the worst I figure is a chop - I call and the turn and river are blanks.
I table my AK, and he mucks.

Next hand is KK on the button. I raise to $17 get one caller. flop is A K x.
He checks, I bet 40 - he calls.
Turn is a Q, villain checks, I bet 75, villain pushes.
I call, villain has AQ. I offer to run it 3 times, and win all 3.

That was the best run of cards I've had in a long time.

BEAT: Spent $400 at Flashdancers afterwards on these 2 hot Asian dancers. Or maybe that's variance.
