Springy Fieldy

.05/.10

Packing up and heading to Springfield soon as done writing this waste of our time... Just going for a quarterly safety meeting us techs have to goto at the office with the big bosses. We'll go out and have dinner tonight at some fancy joint then have a few more bitch sessions tomorrow before heading back to our respective areas. But... I'll have my laptop so will get my hands in tonight hopefully.

As for yesterday in the pokah world, I had an awesome 3BI win day. Gotta love that shit. I didn't really hand out any bad beats just got some cards and played them. My aces held up and in one instance even went up against some cowboys so obviously got him ai. He was one of those 7.2/6.9/insane aggro players. So it was ez. I'll post the hand.

One thing I'd like to talk about is some things Tommy Angelo says about tilt in his book. He strips tilt down to simply not playing your 'A' game, there's various types of tilt but how do we combat it. We realize it and we seek to lower the frequency of it, lower the duration of it, and lower the effect of it. Then he speaks about how in fact your aim should be to tilt less then your opponants thereby increasing your win rate. I dunno good stuff, should pick it up.

Onto some hands from yesterday...

Hand 1: This is that aa v kk hand. Like i said he was very tight/AGGRO so I'm betting he woulda got it in anyways, but I think in this situation he got it in thinking he was killing my range.

Hand 2: This guy was runnin 58/23 max aggro each street. I flopped the nutz vs his range somewhat worried bout the flop check call but I had a decent flush draw and he played every hand seemingly aggro or calling. Then when he went ai on the turn I almost snap called, I knew there was no way he was playing a made hand like this he had to be drawing or bluffing with air. It was the second option.

Hand 3: This guy was 61/26 lol. Short stacker who had me crushed. Thing is, this guy was slow playing the hell outta me. He was letting the timer time down on every move and I was just like wtf go. I thought on the Q I was beat but had a decent amount of outs so wanted to just keep it as cheap as possible for a showdown and honestly I felt I was going all the way with him as he was a shortstack and I never figured him for a set. Luckily, once again the nickle/dime champ strikes again and gets there on the river.

Hand 4: This hand is LOLZ. Rony is 77/5.7 and Lileggo is 56/9. I mean on the flop I catch top pair and flush draw so bet out and these guys call with 2 and 5 outs. I was upset by the river but figured I needed to toss out a thin value bet as I was likely ahead. I think i should betted more here.. Whatchu think?

Ahh well thats it for the day, I need to head out so I can make the meeting in time. Take care folks! As always leaving ya with the PT and EV for 3/18...
