LC: Jesse takes shot, brings luck box

This should probably be in the Low Content Thread, but I just had to create my own. This was freaking awesome.

Playing 6/12, up a little after starting off down 10 big bets, typical friday crowd. Then boom, back to back hands with QQ and QK on Queen high flops, I'm dragging monsters, and all of a sudden I'm up like 25 big bets. I'm due to leave for an airport pickup in an hour, and what do I hear? "Immediate seating, 15/30...." I take stock of my testicles and chips (finding 2 and 592 respectively) and take the last seat at the must move table.

First hand I post in the BB. Folds to the button, who raises. I've played him before....decidedly laggy. He also probably knows I've never played the 15 game. I pray to find 5 high, but no...A8o. I call only. Flop is KK7 two of my ace suite and I check/raise. He three bets (i decide right there he's got no king) and I call, planning to probably call down if the board stays low. Turn is an 8, river a 2, he bets both streets, I call, and he throws his hand in the muck without showing. Would I have called down had I not paired my 8? The world will never know.

About 4 hands later I have A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] T [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] in lp and raise it up after two limpers. 5 to the flop with two hearts, blind bets, one call, I raise and of course turn my nut flush. The catch is that an EP guy flopped a set of 3s, and he put in 5 bets on the big streets without filling up. I also raise KQs and win the pot despite an ace flopping, and flop trip 4s from the bb with 94o (the same guy who had the set of threes pays me 3.5 big bets to show down his deuces...i loved that guy).

So anyway, after an hour I'm sitting with 2.5 racks in front of me and am just stunned.....the flight is late, but I move back down to 6/12 and go through the motions for an hour. I'll remember it for the rest of my poker career [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
