G'day Mate!
First of all : I LOVE POKER!!!
yes that is right I LOVE POKER. poker poker poker cant get enough.
This blog will be about my 54 day challenge and journey on the felt of Las Vegas. I would like to beat and ideally crush small stakes cash games.
If I am able to beat live poker then this is where it will happen.
I will be playing some small tournaments as well.
I know it wont be easy. The games are a lot harder now.
I will be sticking to correct bankroll management with 40 buys for cash and tournaments. I will be playing mostly Wynn, Bellagio and Aria 1-3. Are the games there profitable because of many tourists?
I will be posting many hands and hope that I can get help from everyone here. I don't have any questions at this stage and I am hopeful and optimistic about the next 54 days of poker.
Wish me Luck. And any advice. Aussie Aussie Aussie oi oi oi

Q: FLIPPING IN CASH GAMES DEEP STACK?
Game 2/5 Wyn 10 button straddle.. 775 chips ME Seat2 (ugt+1)
I have been playing fairly solid.
I Limp with AQc $10. seat 3: min bets 20 ( crazy guy who could not speak english)
4 callers.
I three bet to $125. (I KNOW THIS TABLE IS LOOSE )Seat 3 CALLS! He has never folded many hands and has 5000 in front. Everyone else calls. 5 players in the pot
pot 625
Flop: Jc 8c 5h... BB BETS 200. I shove for $650. He snaps calls with Js 10h.
pot 1925
I loose my 53% flip . Even if two other players and playing an ace my odds would still be pretty good. 46%
How often do you flip in cash games?
