So the last couple days have gone well for me, yesterday was a bit up and down ending on a winning hand up 2/3 a buy in. Today was better, I got paid off with a couple big hands I'll put below and ended about 1.5 buyins up. I've been working hard at solidifying my AF at the tables. Primarily through a more consistant cbet along with 3betting and CR'n strong flops.

One thing though twice in the last couple days I've had similar losing hands. Today I lost a buyin on it. It was my biggest loss of the day the second biggest loser of the day was 20% of a buyin. It sucks and I really should have been able to get away from it quite easily. I even put myself in a position to be able to fold it with ease.

http://www.pokerhand.org/?2379522">Hand 2: SSDD (Same shit different day), although I managed not to lose a buyin on it. Certainly through no fault of my own lol. Villain is 58/15.

I hope you learnt yer lesson Tomas, dumbass. Is there any way I could possibly justify these calls? Hmm, I don't think so. In both hands I had a decent sample on them, but honestly in both hands I felt like I was getting a butt plugging come showdown time. So why would you call something like that? STOP IT!

Ok whew there we go, had to chastise myself for these hands, they were just too fugly.

As for some of the winners...

http://www.pokerhand.org/?2379580">Hand 3: In this hand, I knew I was getting a call from one of these fellas. I think though I made a big mistake with my turn bet. Number one, I know I certainly chased one off. Number two, what if this other guy had 36 or 33 instead of his 10/8? I'm not so sure shoving without the nutz on turn is great. I was very sure I had the best hand, I truly wasn't worried bout quads or a boat. So I guess I'm happy with the shove being a safe one, just not happy bout possibly chasing out the other guy. I think I coulda made more here.

http://www.pokerhand.org/?2379615">Hand 4: Here is a hand where I feel I took a big chance on the flop by check raising rather then leading out. I feel like it was certainly the way to get this guy all in but was certainly uncomfortable waiting on the river card to drop.

So thats about it for today guys and girls. Watched Superbad the other day and gawd thats some funny shit. Bored as hell in the hotel....

Will end with the PT stats for last couple days. I think I'm going to only post the ev graphs weekly perhaps....

Take care,
