Daily Update - Thur 14/09
Hours Played: 8.1
Profit:
$820
Notes: Did the best "bluff" of my life tonight lol...
Hand 1
Folds couple limps, folds to hero in SB who completes w QTss, BB raises $20, hero calls.
Flop $45: 32Jss
Check, villain bets $25, hero raises to $85, villain raises to $150 (has about 200 behind), hero jams, villain FOLDS AJ face up... Apparently we just HAVE to have a set here - our image works nice for us here :') We ran it out and he'd have won too. :')
Hand 2
BTN (200) opens $20, hero in SB calls w KQdd, fold. I don't really want to 3bet at this stack depth.
Flop $45: K23hh
Check, BTN cbets $45, hero calls.
Turn $135: 5hhh
Check, villain jams for $130, hero ???
Notes: Think this is an EXCELLENT example of picking the lower variance route. I'm faaaairly indifferent to calling and folding vs this villain - feel like his sizing is kinda maybe him overplaying something... we have a preeetty strong hand but the fact of the matter is, it's close and I'm indifferent - so in this situation, we should ALWAYS look for the lowest variance route and keep that stdev down. I know there are many many much better spots to print money vs this villain too...
Hand 3
Hero isos over 5 limpers in BB w A
A
to $27, SB calls.
Flop $65: T96hh
Check, I reeeeally actually want to check this one back here but decide with two black cards we can't and need to bet. We bet $35, villain check raises to $70, we decide we can't fold yet and peel.
Turn $205: 3hhh
Villain bets $75, ugh... not much we're beating - mayyyybe occasionally they play some weird TPTK/TPGK hand this way but I decided just to muck here. There's no good river for us and are just in a terrible spot - so may as well "reduce the variance" by putting less money into the pot.

Weekly Review - 08/09 - 14/09
Hours Played:
33.4
Profit:
$2,678
Notes: 5/5 Wins this week! Yeeeww! Results-wise, this week was awesome. Everything else-wise, not so great. Was tracking my finances up until the weekend where I went a little more HAM than I needed to. That lead to an extra cheat meal which essentially lead to a whole week of binge eating out basically every day. Kinda let it slip but totally cool if I do this every once in a while - I will not beat myself up about it. But it's certainly time to pull it back in and get back on track re the spending, the gym, and the diet.
Also today had a friend come over - runs a sports betting rink and signed me up to a bunch of sports books to take advantage of sign up bonuses. Basically, they ship a bunch of capital into my bank account, I rego the sites under my name, their bettor makes the bets and in 7-10 days, I get $400-$500 and send them the excess profit. Basically it's a $500 freeroll for 2 hours work this afternoon. So essentially that makes this week 6/5 winning sessions!?!??
So for the forthcoming week:
[ ] - GYM DISCIPLINE
[ ] - TRACK EXPENSES
[ ] - MAX ONE CHEAT MEAL
[ ] - REEL IT TF IN THIS WEEK
[ ] - 45 HOURS
Basically, want to get back into a routine. Get up, gym fasted, then make some food and head to the game. That's it. No partying (decent chance I'll be ALMOST conned into going out tomorrow night but I'm going to avoid that), no nights off, just a disciplined week and some decent volume to make up for this week's ****ty volume. Only two weeks left in the month for me so I really need to push hard here and get a solid penultimate week in!
Also tonight I've arranged for a 1/2PLO/2/5NLH rotation game for Monday next week - this is awesome because last two weeks I've ended up having to go to the casino instead of playing at homegames which is pretty -EV. These guys are fairly keen to play some PLO and I'm happy to as well @ these stakes. So really shouldn't have too much issue getting the 45 hours in.
GL all for your forthcoming weeks and may the heat be witcha!
