Yesterday ( 8/12/09 ) was a very frustrating day for me. I felt I had played perfect poker and was on top of my game. I have recently installed hold¢€™em manager, to which I am still getting used to. I couldn¢€™t win a flip yesterday my 60/40¢€™s weren¢€™t holding up and a few bad beats including one horrific beat in which I completely outplayed my opponent left me with a headache come bed time. I played quite aggressively, which I was pleased about. I have always been quite an aggressive player but the recent viewings of some cardrunners videos have helped a lot I believe! All they need now is to add a video about dodging donkeys. I have two options for two live tourneys to play this Friday, one at the famous international club or the ‚£4,500 guarentee at The Full House club, Reigate. I think I will go with the ‚£60 Guarentee at Reigate. Am down about 4 buy ins over just about 2,000 hands so far this month, which isn¢€™t bad, but should be in profit the way I have been playing. (Was up 3 buy ins before yesterdays play) Trying to fit a few mtt¢€™s into my scheldule the next few weeks as Full tilt have added their mini FTOPS to the scheldule. Hopefully I can take one down one time! As for a bad day yesterday I am not feeling to bad and hitting on myself because I know I am playing well and not donking off my bankroll. Who knows maybe a silver jersey is in place for me? TID Baby!!! Won¢€™t be online for a few days as I have a Christmas work party to attend and Reigate Friday, mind you I may put a few hours in tonight :-) I am meaning to place several hand histories to my blog, but I do not have the correct tools to do so yet. I¢€™ll try and get the actual hand histories for future refrences regarding hands played but here is a hand that summed my day up yesterday! HERO ($26) (CO): Ah 10c Villain ($25) (BTN): X X Hero raises $0.85 Villain reraises $2.25 Hero reraises $6.85 ( he had been 3betting light and this was my first 4bet) Villain calls $4.60. Flop As Qd 2h. Hero checks Villain bets $9 Hero raises $19.25 and is all-in. Villain calls time calls $18.25 Hero Ah 10c Villain Js10s Turn 4d River Ks. I think I was right to four bet the villain here as he was open nearly every pot. Against any other oppenent I would insta muck a10o there but knew I could ouplay this particular opponent, still gg me. Run better imo. LOL gl everyone. See you around.
