Once again this Thursday took me to CMU and to the Soaring Eagle Casino. I showed up at the casino around 7 p.m., figuring I’d play for a few hours until my friends were done at the Lil’ Scrappy concert. I put my name on the list for 3-6 hold ’em and had to wait about 15 minutes. While I was waiting I figured I’d try my luck at blackjack, I burnt $20 in about three minutes there. Still wasn’t up, so I put $5 in a quarter machine, which lasted me about five minutes, so I was down $25 in about 10 minutes. I finally got to a table and bought in for $100. I played for awhile, was up about $80 at one point, but I caught a crappy run of cards, and at about 10:30 p.m. I looked down at Q3 off UTG and counted my chips, $131. I layed it down and figured a $6 profit was good enough for such a short days work. The cards sucked and I didn’t make much, but a profit is always better than a loss.
