Borgata Trip

my experience today from the Borgata....

I went down today for the start of the Main Event, pretty much just a chance to get out of the house and maybe play some poker....

LJ and Lucko, were playing but didnt get to say Hi, but was able to track their play here

Also, met $mokkee himself.... cool dude, who runs good at the cash games at the Borgata keep it up and nice talking to you. Hopefully we will get to meet again sometime.

I believe there were a couple of other bloggers there as well...

So.....

any way....
got to 1/2 table and only bought in for about $140.. built it up to about $190... been playing my TAGish style for the 2 hours I was sitting there and had a good read on everyone. No one was really out of line.

i'm maybe UTG+2 maybe 3... kid on my right playing fairly tight for the 2 hours that we have been playing calls 2...

i look down at Ace of hearts, A of spades. I raised and made it $16...
folds around to the limper on my right and calls the 14. pot is now about $35 (if there was another limper, but cant remember is there was one or not) and he is sitting on about $300+ he had me cover....

we see a flop of J of hearts, 8 hearts and 3 spades......

he checks...

i bet of $26.

he says... all in, with two hands puts two stacks of chips in....

whats your play...
