Other than some passive income, yes, poker is my main source of income.

10 hour session. Pffff. A little drama with the GF and was with her till midnight. Decided to play a short session on the way back down to OC from DTLA. Won three pots without SD and decided to call it quits because I couldn't keep my eyes open.

At this pace, I will have a hard time making it to 100 hours in September. I need to get my act together.

Day 11

I must have burnt over $2k today. Run bad, play bad. Gotta stop leveling myself and find the damn fold button every now and then. UGH!

Day 12

Hours Played: 1 hour 50 minutes
Profit: -$1000

CTD Hours Played: 39 hours 45 minutes
CTD Profit: $3285

Lost 2 buyins rather quickly. Nfd + bottom pair< top two < Top pair + Kfd and QQ < AK aipf. Oh wellz.

Sick hourly despite the last couple of rough days. I should play more live poker I wish it wasn't so dead in Vancouver.

Thanks. I used to visit Vancouver on regular basis back in 2008 - 2012. The action back then was pretty good iirc, but yeah I hear it's gone dry since then. Maybe you can drive down to Tulalip or Muckleshoot to play some spread limit games.

Finally am able to record a 5 hour+ day! I thought today was an important day because, well, losing 3 days in a row is annoying.

Hand 1
eff. $320ish $3/$5 waiting for $5/$5
UTG aggro old man makes it $20, folded to me in the HJ with AKo, I make it $50, UTG makes it $150, I put him in, he calls. I hit K OTR and mhig.

Hand 2
eff. $580ish
I have 55 UTG and make it $20, 3 calls. A95cc OTF. I bet $65, only CO calls. 4h OTT. I bet $175, CO calls. 6d OTR. I put him in for a little more than $300, he calls and mhig.

Hand 3
eff $365
UTG makes it $15, folds to me, I make it $55 from SB with AA, UTG calls. KcQc6d OTF. I bet $70, he calls. Qh OTT. I bet $100, he shoves for $240 total. I tank fold.

Hopefully, I will be able to put in the hours again tomorrow.

Day 14

Hours Played: 8 hours 7 minutes
Profit: -$292

CTD Hours Played: 54 hours 44 minutes

Today was pretty rough. AA < KK twice. Lose two big flips. Luckily I was able to grind back 3+ buyins. Too tired for HH's. Looking forward to the weekend.

subbed this is a sick goal

Thanks.

Day 15

Hours Played: 5 hours 1 minute
Profit: $730

CTD Hours Played: 59 hours 45 minutes
CTD Profit: $4631

Started the day stuck $300 playing the $3/$5 waiting for a seat. Then the roller coaster happens. + 1 buyin, then -3 buyins, then + 1.5 buyin to end the day. If there was no variance in poker, it would be a dull game, imo.

Hand 1
eff. $700

I overlimp 44 from CO. 7 ways to Q54r flop. MP bets $25, I flat, UTG flats. Qc OTT bringing fd. MP bets $100, I raise to $270, UTG folds, MP calls. Ad OTR. MP checks, I bet $400, MP calls. MHIG.

Hand 2
eff $625

I raise it to $35 over two limps from btn with 75dd, BB calls, UTG calls, UTG1 calls. 973dd OTF. I bet $85, BB min raises to $170, UTG and UTG1 fold, I call. 6d OTT. BB bets $200, I call. Qs OTR. BB bets $200, I call and lose.

Hopefully, I will be able to put in some volume in this weekend. Cheers.

Sorry but hand 2 is pretty ugly. Especially the river call. It doesnt matter what pot odds your getting, pair of 7s is never ever good there.

Looks like hero had a flush from the hand history.

Ahhh...misread it. Disregard.

That's why I don't like playing low suited connectors/gappers. Fish love to call with their paint soooooted.

Day 16

Hours Played: 3 hours 13 minutes
Profit: $806

CTD Hours Played: 62 hours 58 minutes

Pretty boring session. Was involved in 2 pots and stacked 2 people.

Hand 1
eff. $450ish

UTG $10, UTG1 $35, MP calls, I reraise to $205 from SB with AKo, UTG folds, UTG1 folds, MP shoves for $450ish, I call. I hold vs AJ.

Hand 2
eff. $450ish

I raise to $10 UTG1 with AA, 2 calls, CO reraise to $35, BTN calls, I make it $140, CO shoves for $450ish, BTN folds, I call and hold.

I can put in a short session in tomorrow. Let's see how I do.

I want to play where you play. These games seem incredibly soft

Welcome to Los Angeles poker world.

Day 17

Frustrating day. Hovered around even all day and this hand happens.

eff. $500

I make it $10 with T7cc from MP and get 5 calls. T98c OTF. I bet $25, MP1 calls, BTN calls. 5c OTT. I bet $40, MP1 makes it $140, BTN folds, I put him in for $325ish more. He tanks and calls with 98. I lose and go home.

What hours are you usually playing? How's hg? Are you playing the 300 cap or is there still a 300-600?

Good luck on this challenge. Your seem to be doing very well so far. I play a good amount of 5/10 NL+ in the LA area, so maybe we should holler at each other some time.

I usually play during the night. At HG, I play 300-600.

Thanks. Yeah, if you wanna get a couple beers or whatnot, I'm down.

I guess I kinda got frustrated with the breakeven stretch, so I jumped onto $5/$10 tonight. Plus the game looked good. Ran good.

Since the $5/$10 player pool is much smaller than the $5/$5 pool, I think I'm going to refrain from posting HH.

Probably take Monday off.

On a sidenote, I'm debating between X5 and Cayenne S. Any suggestions?
