Making money is fun.


THIS WAS SUPPOSED TO BE POSTED LAST NIGHT AT AROUND 3:30 AM OR SO. APPARANTLY I DID NOT USE THE 'POST' FEATURE, SO IT'S BEING POSTED NOW, ABOUT 8 HOURS LATER THEN IT SHOULD HAVE. THAT IS ALL.



Just got done playing another 3350 hands of poker. Now before any of ya'll start bitching about how I need to go outside, I did the following today:

-slept in
-trolled around FTR for a bit and did other random stuff like made food, talked to people, etc
-worked out
-went to my mom's for dinner and took my niece for a walk. And there was this fine girl outside by her pool/sidewalk with what appeared to be her little sis or whatever, and they came over and talked to me. Shoulda got the number, but she mighta been too young. I'm gonna guess 18 which would be fine, but I'm known to overshoot just a tad so I played it on the safe side.
-got some sushi at the awesome japanese place
-played poker (lot of shorthanded/heads up, probably played 5-6 hours).
-umm now I"m making food and I'm gonna watch a rerun of the dallas v miami game (don't know anything about the game yet, and if I go on FTR and read the results somewhere I might throw a fit).

Also, got my BR back up to around 14.3k. In other words, I'm tearing 1/2 apart. Eventually I'm going to start mixing 1/2 and 2/4 tables, I think. But seriously, when you take your bankroll from 16.5k to under 9k in a matter of a week or so, you tend to be hesitant about these things. Such is the case for me.


Time for a few hands...

Ok this hand needs some 'splainin. This table was getting wild. Chicago Al was just straight up pwning people, but the game was playing really loose and donkish. Getting stacked with an overpair at 150bb deep, especially against someone that limp/calls, check/raises, and pushes the turn generally sucks very hard, but I thought it was +EV at the time. Meh, set, whatever. F him.

BTW my PokerTracker stats on this guy:

229 hands, 33/13, +$1852 which equals a +202ptbb/100 winrate. Yes, 202.

What's sad, is as bad as this table was, I lost almost a buyin on it if memory serves me right.

Alright, when all was said and done, this guy got the best of me tonight. Unfortunately. I killed him for the most part at heads up, but more on that later. I should find a fold in here somewhere, but whatever.

After a while, everyone leaves and we start playing heads up. At the time, including this game, I was playing 3 heads up games, 2 shorthanded games (like 3-4 players), and another 2 full ring games, or something like that. There was an 8th (sit n go which I obviously bubbled in for like the 8th straight time) somewhere in there too.

Anyway, I was destroying him heads up until this ABSOLUTELY REDONKULOUS HAND CAME UP. Yeah dude, call my raises OOP with J7o, then chase your super duper duuuuuuuuper obvious straight draw that has no implied odds down to the river, where you hit running trips. Give me a break. I thought a really slowplayed KQ/KT was his most likely hand, as I was reallllly pounding at this guy in position.

fwiw bet/call probably isn't the best line on the river for me but SSHhhhhhh

GAY

Let's talk about having a read on somebody. I knew exactly what this fucker had, and as soon as the heart hit on the river I nearly cried. The point, however, is that I owned him. He was an unknown semi-lagtard and I felt his preflop button calling range here was fairly wide, so AQ/AK unlikely. The timing of his flop call and turn push made me almost certain he had the flush draw, despite the Ah being on the board. F results, they don't matter.

MY GREAT BIG WTF???????? HAND OF THE DAY!

WTF?????????? WAS HE THINKING??? (granted I had my continuation game going full force, but this is kinda rediculous. And the call on the end is just laughable, despite him getting 6:1 or whatever. Dude, what are you hoping for? that he's on an open-ender and your 6 cards are live? Errrm wait, still a bad call. Maybe he has 45, and the river will be a duece and YHIG!!! wow.

he's an unknown and I assume he is busto by now so I wouldn't bother searching this guy.

Ok i had a bunch more I wanted to show but George just IM'd me.

ALSO I WANT TO GIVE A HUGE SHOUTOUT TO BRYCE (bdawg56kg) for putting up with all my nonsense and sorting through the masses of HH's and chat I send him on a nightly basis. He sends me a lot of HH's too but they all have valid points and are interesting, not necessarily the case with the garbage I send him. holla
