So I finished up a test with half an hour left in class, then left and this put me with 1.75hrs until the next class today, so I log into my favorite site and decide I can maybe muster up a little session in my downtime.
So I join a wait list for a $150/300 game that features one donater in it. I'm first on the wait list. While waiting, just use IM and surf the web, watching my battery power dwindle down (I used the laptop earlier before class too). Finally, it's my turn to take a seat after like an hour waiting, and it ISN'T the donater's seat who I'm taking, yay!
I post BB. Nikla raises in EP (6max), so I fold my 63o. Next hand in SB the donater raises UTG, and again fold my Qh8h. Donater's BB now, and of course he sits out [my bad beat!]. Game continues, I get 44 on my button and 3 bet the CO's open raise. He calls. Flop K88 two clubs, he check folds and then the game breaks with me up $447 and my first winning session in a few weeks [brag]!
I think more people need to combine bad beat and brag threads into one.
