I played 9.5 hrs today and won
$251. So I finished off my second best month of the year profit wise making almost 2k. I managed to put in 100 hrs which is alright but I think I could and should being playing a little more.
My target for September is going to be 120 hrs played. I think this is a very reasonable goal and should not be a problem.
Today I played at the Hard Rock, Bellagio, The V, and Wynn. I wasn't making very many hands but managed to stab at flops when villains missed and took down the small pots.
Here is a hand played at the Hard Rock 1/3, It's not a trouble spot I thought I would change it up and share a hand where I feel I played well-
I pick up 8
8
in lp and make it 16 over 2 limps, both limpers call. Effective stacks 225.
Flop- Q
8
5
Villain 1 was loose and would bet any peice of a flop, he checked so I figured him for nothing. Villain 2 had been playing straight forward and bet 20 into 48 I put him on a Q and not a fd so I call. My standard play is to raise here on the 2 flush board but since I am very confident neither opponent has a fd, I call.
Turn- J
Villain checks, I bet 40 into 88. He thinks for a second then calls.
River- 2
Villain checks and I bet 100 into 168. Villlain tank calls, I show my hand he mucks.

Florida has soft games but the weather is awful, New Jersey is a ****hole, Midwest blows, LA has too much traffic/scum, Vegas is too hot and has too many distractions. That leaves SD county and Bay Area.....Can't go wrong with either. Just my 2 cents.
Thanks for the advice. I've still never played at Bay 101 or Lucky Chances, I hear they have good games.
