Well, first session of this thread was not the best. Lost a little over 2 buyins and lost $15 in SNGs (AQ>AK and 22>JJ). Couldn't get any action with good hands and if I did they had the goods. Hopefully grind it back after dinner and a pool break. No interesting hands to report on.

Good news is cash went better this time. I won 2 buyins. Bad news is I played a few SNG's and couldn't pull any cashes in those. Going to stick to strictly cash from here on out. Thought SNG's might be the way to go, but cash is just easier and better. Had one interesting hand I'll put at the bottom of this post.
Hand:
This was definitely an exploitative line. My friend and I talked the hand over for awhile and decided the the best play would be to check call my entire range on the turn and jam most rivers. This way I'm protected when I check my non club AK/AQ and 10's. I still think my line is alright especially against fishy opponents - gets value from FDs and small overpairs.

Had a quick session today. Had KK cracked by runner runner flush and that's about all the action I had. Going out to my friend's house to teach him how to grind 4NL and then we're going to a video game tournament (Super Smash Bros). Probably play again later tonight for an hour or two.
