Hey all!
So, Ive read alot of the great PGC threads and feel like it might be a great tool to improve my game so I plan on giving it a shot...its definitely gonna be a work in progress. I have a full time job so can only manage poker 3-4 days a week my main goal is going to be 100 hours a month and to post around 3 hands per session....gonna put in a few hours after work tonight!!
Will update with backstory and graph fairly soon!

Short session last night. I almost didn't play Usually supposed to get off work at 1am my supervisor didnt tell us we had OT until 12:30. But it was only one hour extra so I still went to play some poker!!!
Only put in two hours because table broke and lost the high card draw for the only one open seat. could have waited a little for another seat but just decided to book a win
+$420 in two hours!
Nothing super interesting hand wise Im thinking of changing my buy-in strategy after tripling up like 4 hands in and leaving money on the table. I usually buy in for only $200 to get a feel for the table and either chip up slowly or just add the last $100 when I get some reads
Triple up hand: literally 4 hands into my night no reads eff stacks ~$200
Hero has AhTh on the btn
MP Vil makes it $10 Hero calls SB Calls
($33) Flop Jx9x8h
SB checks MP bets $20 I Call SB calls (standard?)
My question is about the turn
($93) Turn Kh
Sb leads for $50 MP makes it $200 I call for What I had left SB calls
I figured I had about ~15 outs here but now looking back I could probably remove 3 of the non heart 7s because QT is a deff possibility for somebody here
($650) River Qc.....(bink)
No need to explain this card too much SB ended up with 7T for the flopped straight and the MP vill had j8hh for two pair and flush draw....I really ran good that hand

Only managed 4 hours yesterday and went -$30 it was a very swingy session was down almost $300 at a point and up $300 less than hour later... really only one spot i was questioning here it is!:
About two orbits it only read on villain is I know he is on the list for 20/40LHE
Eff Stacks $180
Preflop: Folds to villain in MP he makes it $10 Hero in CO calls with TcTh
($24) Flop: 7c3c8c
Villain leads for a slight overbet of $35 Hero......???
Also I need to start life nitting it up spending way too much on pre and post session food and drinks lol
