Default 15-30 hand, funny in a sad way

I was killing some time at the Oaks 15-30 game. I've only played that game 5 or 6 times and it hasn't been good. I got lucky the few times I played and finished up every time, but only because the cards decided to run me over at the right times.
This day was different, though. The game was good. Really good. Calling 3 bets cold with KTs good.

The game was focusing around this older gent who was on an amazing rush of flopping huge hands and getting paid off. He didn't like folding before the flop.
Another guy (to my left) who kept getting very good starters cracked was slowly going off the deep end into Tiltville. The hand before this one was precious: He raises preflop with AK. Flop AK4. Older guy waits for the river to pop him for 5 bets w/ his set of 4's.
Steamer looked like "the little engine that could". If it wasn't his BB, I think he would have gone outside to calm down a bit.

Here's the hand:
Couple of MP limpers, couple of LP limpers, I limp in the SB w/ A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]8 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], Steamer raises his BB without looking at his cards, we all call.

Flop is okay:
2 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]3 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]5 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

we all check to steamer, who bets, all fold to guy on my right who check raises, I call 2 cold, steamer looks at his cards for the first time and 3 bets while laughing/swearing, we both call.

Turn is a black Q.
LP checks, I bet, steamer raises, LP folds, I 3 bet, steamer looks like he wants to murder me and slams his chips out there.

River is a black 4.

I check raise, he calls w/ AA.

I rack up quickly because I'm late for work and a little scared.

It is sad. Thanks for the car payment sad. He can't expect anything else playing like an a**hole. "I'm going to raise in the dark and then get mad when someone with the nuts (nearly) reraises". Boohoo. Wish that guy was posting so we could ridicule him. Can you tell I'm bored? I hate this damn ship.

You may want to proofread that post. You have all kinds of players acting out of position.

Wow, if this is a *good* game at the Oaks I don't think I ever need to play there. This stuff is not that uncommon in the San Jose or Colma 20-40 games.
