Going to play Friday night pokers. I resolve to play a tighter opening range this session and see how that goes.

Yep me too shortly. Don't feel like a long session so I think I will do a MTT for like the first time in 2-3 years.

I'm sitting in my motel near Tunica playing the $55 SCOOP limit O8, my first ever SCOOP event. I really wanted the experience of playing this.

745 left, 396 cash, but mincash is $65. I'm sitting on 5/8 of an average stack.

The 64/20 is our table deep stack right now -- 64/20 isn't as bad as at full-ring HE, but it's still pretty bad -- so I guess you could say my decision to play this was +EV. Probably even more EV than playing live NLHE since I think I suck at live NLHE.

Once I bounce out I'm headed to the casinos for the last poker night of this trip.

There is a $100 'live' tournament tomorrow afternoon at a bar in Mississauga (10min west of TO - 401/Dixie area) They usually have a soft field, good structure and are well organized but I skip the tournament and show up late and play the cash game after. It's only $1/$2 but it's pretty juicy. PM me if ur from the area and I'll give u the location.

...I have nothing to do with it. I've played in one of there events before (they're close to being turbos but the play is weak.) I'm just showing up late to get in on the cash games that start up as the tournament ends. GL to everyone playing tonight. If u can stand the wait lists it's a great night to play (I usually get up and play early on Saturday abd pick on the guys that have stayed too long.)

Karma for wishing each other GL...

I played a total of (3) hands in the MTT.

Call a hyper-LAG from MP with other callers with 44 get a all flop and its checks around. Turn is a 4, checks to me I bet 3/4 pot, only the hyper-LAG calls, river the 4th and he open shoves, I fold...

I get AA in the SB with a few limpers and raise to 9xBB, only UTG calls, I check a dry flop and bet the safe turn, he insta mucks.

I get 55 in LP and solid player open for 4xBB UTG, decent LAG on my right calls and is the big stack, I call with 55 Flop is a wonderful T85, UTG leads for pot, LAG hesitates and calls, I raise 4xthe lead, UTG pushes, LAG tanks and makes a crying call, I insta call... Turn is a 9 river 3 my set goes down in flames to the FD and I am out, UTG wasn't happy about getting her QQ snapped either.

Oh well, it was fun and short which is what I wanted.

Nah I called it a night. It would have been over an hour for a table, not too mention I had no desire to play more than 3-4 hours max.

Rofl I just left too... never thought I'd get mad at being slowrolled.

I sentence you to reading 60 minutes of Elements of Poker...

Tomorrow morning. I promise.

The thing that I think actually makes me the most upset is I spent two hours cultivating an image at the table just to get coolered for my whole stack.
