2:06am: Despite having played 13 games so far tonight, I have absolutely nothing breaking/shocking to report. Long story short, I’ve split matches (W/L) every single time I opened up two at the same time. The one time I decided to play a single match, I won it. Therefore, I am now 7-6. After the rake, I’m up a handful of peanuts, or something of the sort. LOL
Anyways, I’m going to keep plugging away because I have rent due in 2 days, and also because I need the following:
1. New Phone (my treo 700w broke)
2. New Router (keeps dropping connection)
3. To meet my monthly quota of games played
So in the name of accomplishing ANY of those three things, back to the poker!
More later…
*EDIT*, 3:50am: Well, it was a long session - probably one of the most stress free sessions I can remember in recent history. That’s probably because:
1. Nobody had any sick, dramatic, improbable comebacks.
2. I didn’t get 2-3 outered all night long
3. Every hand pretty much held up. Only problem was, sometimes I got the money in bad tonight, which is usually not a problem with me.
4. Someone actually made my day by slowrolling me. It made me smile. They flopped the strong cold nuts; I had A10, flop was J J 10, and the blinds were 50/100 so I went all in shortstacked and he takes like 45 seconds to call. By that point I knew I was getting slowrolled, so I had prepared myself for it. I knew unless he had quad Jacks that I had SOME outs. It would have been funny if running aces came. That would have made my weekend, but alas, it did not.
Anyways, that’s enough for today, standard +3 game session. That’s about all you can really expect winning 60% of your games, putting in 5 hours a day. If I put in a true 8 hours, I’d probably be looking a +5 margin. However, too much poker makes me cranky, and I don’t think anyone has the stomach to play poker 60 hours a week, especially heads up.
More tommorow…
