Computer Crashed

Blog by : bbball22

Continued to win at $.50/$1 PLO and my bankroll is currently at $3660.

Unfortunately my computer got a virus (damn porn) and I had to reboot the entire thing and have spent the last couple of hours downloading all kinds of software and re-downloading my entire itunes playlist that was wiped out. Very frustrating but I have about got it all back.

Continued Winning

Blog by : bbball22

Felt like posting a quick update since the last time I posted.

I entered a $33 PLO tourney and ran well booking a $1000 dollar win.

I have also continued winning at PLO now playing at the $.50/$1 PLO tables. I have been running amazingly well and through 1000 hands I am winning 43 BB/100. Obviously I will not keep at this pace but it does feel nice to win after running so bad for so long.

My current bankroll is at $3278 which is a significant increase from the last time I posted.

Another Solid Day

Blog by : bbball22

I had another solid day today winning +$300. I hit a lot more hands today and also had them hold up..

After playing these games I have learned that if you like making money learn PLO because there is a huge edge for a decent PLO player and it looks like the players aren't a whole lot better at other levels.

Keeping it short since I don't have my Pokertracker to post any of my hands.

Better Results

Blog by : bbball22

I've had a decent run since the last time I posted. I mostly played in small PLO games on stars and ran pretty well. In 938 hands I won $164.70. Here are some of the more interesting hands. My bankroll is now at $850 which was about a $150 increase from a night ago.

I had to think a bit before making this call but I felt with his re-raise pre-flop I thought there was a good chance he had AAxx.

This one was pretty nasty. I am just amazed at how much people put in pre-flop with crap hands.

http://weaktight.com/299927

Not really sure what the line is to do here. I think I either push or fold but I think a fold is probably the better option.

People get top two and play it like it is the nuts, I love it.

I was thinking he had a busted draw but he ended up having a lower set. I think it was a poor bet on his part because if I'm calling I'll always have him beat.

Those were the main big hands that I had today. Also, I thought it was funny seeing a person check down a straight flush.

A Horrible Day

Blog by : bbball22

Played a lot of tournaments, mostly 180 man turbo sit-n-gos and I don't think I cashed in one. My bankroll has dropped down to $700 which is about -$400 since I last posted. I think I might need to take a break for a little while or I am just gunna switch to some smaller cash games. However, the thought of grinding in cash games that are a 1/4 of what I used to play just bores the crap out of me, but I think I am just gunna have to fight through and slowly build up.

Booked a Small Win

Played a little bit today with good results.

I played 288 hands of $.25/$.50 PLO winning $38. I feel like I did pretty well despite a few mistakes. Here are some of the bigger pots.

Felt like I played it well but I really do not like getting involved in big pots with AAxx.

http://weaktight.com/296770

Saw this guy stack off with 2 pair and an overpair earlier, however I still think i could've folded.

http://weaktight.com/296773

Managed to get lucky and hit with a decent draw here.

That's it for big pots, I hope to play some more later tonight and tomorrow. Also, I think I'm going to multi-table the $12 180 man turbo sit-n-gos because I feel they are a great way to build a bankroll.

Building Back Up

Blog by : bbball22
0

I am beginning this blog as a way for me and perhaps others to follow my progress as I try to build up my bankroll.

I am starting with $1000 dollars after going up and down for months until I finally just took a break for a month or so.

I plan on updating this blog daily for the most part and will include any cashes I have in tournaments or any results I have in cash games.

I lately have been playing a lot more tournaments as I had been running rather poorly in cash games but I plan to start playing some PLO games at $.25/$.50.

I'll be posting later tonight with my results.
