Card dead in level 9....

Blinds were 250/500/50

At one spot on a 6k stack I got A2 off utg and pitched it...

Is that bad/should I have shoved?

Another spot...

5k stack. utg raises, another guy calls...I pitch k9s otb.

Level 10: 300/600/75

All in spot.

3.5k sb, big fish w 40 k stack from utg limps in, so does another fish, I fire all in with A/2s and both call.

Big fish utg wins w 68s.

Hero is busted out.

Went to grab a bite to eat after tourney, sat at 1/2, and just wasn't feeling it.

Was up $40 after a hour and I decided to come nap at the room/hit the reset button on my mind.

Going to go back and grind in a few hours probably.

Anyway....

The People's Bankroll:

Cash: +$20.00 ($1220.00)

and

Tournies: -$365.00 (One $365.00 and $580.00 bullet left.)

Plenty of ammo left LG. Win some, ya lose some. Your updates are awesome btw.

Breaks are good for the poker soul. Relax, recharge, rejuvenate. You'll start crushing again soon enough.

U da man.

Not shoving that light UTG here with 12 bbs, prolly shoving something like 22+ A2s+ A9o+ KQ+ and JTs+, which I think is still pretty wide

89o sb 6 limps, flop is 10c Jc 4h.

Checks to otb, he bets $8. I am only caller.

Turn is 7d. I check, he bets $15. I call.

River is Jh. I know he has a J so I open ship all in.

He starts sweating, drooling, then shaking, and asks me "you miss your flush huh huh huh?"

He calls off his last $135.

Shows KJ.

(+160)


Aa sb (+35) 3bet a $7 pot sweetener/5 callers.
AQ otb (-27)
Nit r to $7, I just flat with AQ. 4 way pot.

Flop is J 10 9. Nit leads $20. I am only caller. Turn brick. Nit spazz ships $150. I fold. Then he flips AA over and cools it off like it's on fire. Lol.

Down $200 atm, getting tired but the game is still good.

Gonna grind another hour then get six hours of sleep before the tourney.

Definitely will find a spot to double, just need my cards to hold.

After that first hand I thought for sure tonight was going to be a good one.

Ended up finishing $250.00 down.

Put in a 5 hour shift, I still owe you all nine and will grind more if I have to....

Will update again in morning.

Level 6 with antes starting now....

Time to focus and I will update only after big hands now.

From what I have seen these $365.00 entries are just play abc/stack donks, ****ty regs, nits when you have the goods in the first 8 levels. Haven't seen any aggros or light 3betters at all.

Table is full of unsophisticated/bet when they have it villains.

Not much position raising or tricky play going on.

I have 8k stack..blinds 150/300/25.

Raise 650 w Ak. BB calls.

Flop A 10s 2s.

He checks, I bet 800. Turn is a Jh.

I bet 2k.

River 9c he ships all in for his last 4k.

I have 4k left.

I fold.

In small stakes cash the check/c, check/c, lead river big is usually a monster.

Usually same in these small donkaments?

Stack at 6k now after some all ins and no calls.

Just called a big stacks ship on my bb when I had around 5k left...

He had Aj and was in Co.

Learning to first shove all in or shove over light openers with Kxs hands, Ax suited hands, Ax hands, and all small pps and feel pretty good about it.

Even on a 6 k stack I was getting lots of folds from 2x openers when I shoved over top.

I had no premium pairs this entire tourney...every time I shoved I actually didn't want a call.

Will wear the American flag pants and eagle shirt this Wednesday for some good luck.

Need to run wild out of the gate just once.
