Some guys got together at a friend's house for a game, and I got invited. First poker in over a year, I think.
There were five of us. Buyin was about $50 each, but the same guy got stacked twice in the first four hands, so pretty soon we were all doubling our buyin and the average stack stood at $200. So nothing major.
I'm pretty sure I was raising preflop the most, and I just kept whiffing the flop, and my cbets were getting played back at, so I just tried to stay patient.
My only really notable hand was when I was dealt JJ at UTG+1.
UTG made it about $3. ($0.50/$1 blinds). I reraised with JJ to $12. He called and we were heads up. This was the same guy, by the way, who got stacked twice in the first ten minutes.
Flop came J 6 3 rainbow, and he led out for $13.
Okie dokie then. I just called, without much deliberation.
Turn was an ace. He led out $20. I raised it to $55.
He thought out loud for a long time. He kept saying, "You reraised preflop with pocket threes or pocket sixes?" He couldn't figure out my hand. I kept wondering why he was excluding pocket jacks. Or pocket aces.
Anyway, he called my raise, and then he shoved a queen river, and I called.
He showed ace jack. Ah, so that's why he was excluding pocket jacks and aces. Cool.
Aside from that hand, I was pretty much card dead. But I drank four beers and won a hundred bucks, so it was fun.
