Notes: Played the sickest hand of my life tonight. Yesterday marks 4 weeks since I began tracking on here, so we'll get a weekly report up coming through shortly. Initially I thought four weeks equated to one month, but turns out I started playing on the 28th of last month, so we still have three or so days week in the month! So no monthly update just yet.
Anyway, a question I have... Say it's about 7-8 handed, folds to BTN who is a fairly aggressive player, he opens to $15, hero in SB has KTo, what we do??? I'm fine with all three options, wondering if anyone knows what's good when we expect a live population to over-cbet - feel like our call here burns money...
Anyway, onto the HAND OF THE DAY/WEEK/PROB MONTH:
Table's about 7 handed or so, maybe 6...
Hero ($1400) opens A
A
to $15 from EP, excellent reg OTB 3bets to $55, spazz ($500) in SB cold calls the $55, BB ($600) also cold calls the $55, back to hero who is absolutely licking his lips... At the time I thought this was the final day of the month... it's about 4am, game's slowly breaking, I might only have a couple orbits left. Hero is up maybe $600 but needs to book a ~$800 win to save the month... This is the hand, here we go boys...
Hero thinks for a while before 4betting to $235. I think the size is good because it reflects how deep hero and BTN are. BTN is the type of guy who talks strat with hero a lot and knows I have 4bet bluffs here... BTN calls, SB calls, BB folds. What. The. ****.
Flop ($762): 2
5
8
****ing mint. If BTN has QQ, we probably stack him here. SB has any two cards, I'm not worried about him. This is as good of a flop as we can get here. LOVING life. Check, Hero cbets $275 leaving himself with about $890 - if I get one caller, there will be about $1,312 in the middle, leaving us with a nicely jammable stack...
BTN folds (later tells us he had AKs and was incredibly close to jamming -_-) but SB calls for his remaining $215.
So final pot is $1,212, we win this baby, we're in the green for the month. A literal miracle. Villain is one of the juiciest players in Brisbane. Notorious for punting off a lot of money. Unfortunately he is probably 3-4 buyins above EV against hero THIS MONTH ALONE.
Of course, villain shows 3
6
for a gut shot and flush draw. We agree to run it thrice. In true hero vs this villain fashion, he gets there all three times... Absolutely brutal. Such a dream spot. If BTN shoves pre, we win a $3k pot and are absolutely #livingthedream.
Most annoying +$190 victory I'll ever have. The good news is, we actually have Sat and Sun left in the month to try get even... We're approx down only $700 ish for the month! Cannot tell you how good it'd feel to run well and get into the black after the next two days!

Only one losing session this past week. Poor volume is slack but can be explained!!!
Story time:
So my Tinder date last week fell through but I managed to get myself a different Tinder date... I met one of my neighbours who is good friends with my room mate. Pretty Asian thing (shouts to those with the yellow fever, pics below)... Anyway my roomy warned me about her, she's bipolar and fairly crazy... Just my type. Immediately reminded me of my high school girlfriend, just her mannerisms etc. She was also bipolar and extremely crazy.
Anyhow, I get up on Thursday arvo, head to the gym, come home and shower, getting ready to head to the casino... then my room mate, one of his friends, and this girlie rock up to my living room with pizza. I'm sitting there eating my oatmeal as I do. Anyhow, my room mate and his friend leave to go find his friend's car keys or some ****, and it's just me and this chicky babe left. We're talking about her family, upbringing, how she can see ghosts, etc etc... normal crazy chick stuff, yanno. Anyway, fast forward an hour, my room mate and his friend walk into the apartment, the lights are off, only 4 candles are lit on the table in the living room, me and this girl are sat opposite each other, my hands in her, attempting to summon a demon via seance... Standard stuff... So things are going well... except we're interrupted and can't continue our ouija board practice in my apartment anymore... (Room mate has done too much DMT and ain't cool with spooky ****)...
So me n this girl head down the hall to her place... I immediately get the feeling I won't be going to the casino tonight... We decide to walk to the store and buy some cider, come back, and literally Netflix and chill for a few hours...
Anyway, manage to bag her later that night, we both had to shower twice, was a thorough night's work... Absolute freak in bed she was, could get used to this being called daddy thing tbh... Since I stayed the night at hers, my room mate, who had earlier warned me about this girl, messages me in the morning like "Did you **** Rachael?" to which I obv respond "No comment" and he replies with "Ha, you're in trouble now"... So we'll see where this rabbit hole leads over the coming weeks I suppose! Turns out she is on Tinder too, she showed me her profile and I showed her mine... apparently my problem has been the fact that all my pics are with random girls and it makes me look like a ****boy and that I'd have more success if I fixed that... What a good lass! Pics of girl below...
So tomorrow Penthouse may or may not get up, but Sunday we'll definitely get a Penthouse game in - maybe NLH or might be rotation. PS, I just wanna remark how sick this Penthouse game is... Had a topless waitress tonight, absolute ****ing 10 walking around, super distracting. And there's free coke out the back on a Friday night as well. It's actually so iconic. Fight day Sunday, will be super fun. Tomorrow I wanna get to the gym and a session in at casino if Penthouse doesn't run. In terms of volume for the month, we're already at 166 hours, which is effectively 40 hours per week already, but will definitely want to get two more good sessions in to put us just over the volume target and to get some good reps in while the games should be easy over the weekend. And see if we can get in the green lol. That's all for now folks!
