Today I ran terribly at ring. Despite the fact that most of my blogs are about me running bad and breaking even at lhe, this is far from the norm. Lately I've been running super hot, today was just variance reducing my winrate a bit. I'm taking Doggz' advice to start loving variance, as it's swinging our way most of the time.

I also contributed to the prizepool in the Gauntlet today. I wasn't really concentrating, as I was playing 4 tables of ring at the same time, with the mtt table popping up in the middle when it was my turn to act. Early on John Kwon flopped his 3 outer, AJo against my AQ . The flop was x x J. He played it pretty passively, calling the flop, making a fairly weak bet on the turn when I checked to him, and checking behind on the river. I guess I just gave off 'monster' vibes to him.

I got a table change shortly after, doubled up when Eric pushed his K Q into my AA on a x x K board, then busted with top pair against Warpe's flopped 2 pair in a multiway unraised pot. It was a pretty terrible river push by me, but my thoughts were pretty much on my cash games.

I played about 1.8k hands of ring today, and pretty much broke even (this is a bad day for me these days).



Pretty swingy eh.

This was all during the afternoon. I studied after this (exams next week )

Just before I went to sleep, I played a $12 + 1 6 man sng at Bodog. I managed to win this.

So today's profit/loss thingy:

Ring: (25)
Gauntlet: (11)
SnG: 46.8
