Probably going to take it easy on the volume for the rest of the month, then come back strong in December and add on to my Iron Man bonus.
your better off buying step 1's and grinding your way to step 3's.

you get more value that way IMO.

Made just under 3 buy-ins today in about 280 hands. Then stars died on me and couldn't be bothered to wait for it to start up again. Biggest hand of the session.

I mean any other river (except a T) this is just obv fold. But vs this villain it could be a random spazz wiwth 72off lol

Doyle Brunson's hand, two pairs on river, all in for sure.

Crazy, but just fold here to set up a hero call later. There's nothing were beating that he would over bet that way. It may be a bluff, but you don't have the best bluff catcher here.

11-25-2010 , 05:56 PM
the kk hand was vs a tag & yea i never can bet there, nothing can call that i beat & nothing i beat is even going to bet the turn, q-10 betting the turn? ehh not really... i just dont like calling turns when i cant call rivers i dont know if that spot was different but thats usually my thinking
11-25-2010 , 05:56 PM
did u have the set of 8s? or just put me on a busted flush draw? I noticed u on one of my other tables recognized the name then saw it here and tilted me to know it was another 2p2er ahaha. hope you start running better
11-25-2010 , 06:06 PM

Playing NL cash recently has tilted me so much I haven't played any for nearly 2 weeks.

Been playing badugi & enjoying it. Maybe I'm enjoying it because I'm still up >$120 this week (brag), even though I'm down $20 today (beat).

Doomswitched on stars tonight - every time I got back in front, I got drawn out on 3 times in a row & back to -$20.
11-25-2010 , 07:43 PM
