Haven't been running so great... here is just a sample of what I've been doing. Down 3 buyins today and 6 for this week. Lame.

Well after I lose three buyins last night, I put in a short session today and won it all back. I have no HHs with me on this laptop, but I flopped a full house and stacked an overpair 150 BB deep. I had QTs and raised from the cutoff. The BB who had been playing LAG decided to check, and I had a note on him that he checks CO raises with big pairs. The flop came QQT, he checked, I led for pot and he pushed, I snap called and he had KK. Next big hand that I had was AA > KK APIF, pretty standard. I will post some HH when I get back on my desktop.

Robert

Here are the right HH's... I really suck at the internet. I ran really bad, and people kept sucking out on me. GG

I was playing real LAG for a change, and I wanted to see how I did. I'll stick to my TAG style.

I thought I would give this a shot. I'm going to enter blog entries after each session that I have. I read on the forums that this would be a great idea to help keep me on top of my game. I recently went broke, but luckly my dad is staking me in some cash games. I have to pay him back, but I'm glad that I have a second shot. I will be grinding 10NL until I reach 25NL, 50... etc. I hopefully will be playing 2/4 by the end of 2008, that is my goal. Another one of my goals is not to go broke. I really don't want to again, because you get this feeling deep insdie that you just want to puke. Most of you know what I'm talking about.

I work during the week and go to school, so most of my blog entries will be on the weekend, when I have time to play. I have to do some chores tomorrow and a lot of homework. I plan on 4 tabling, so nothing that big. Hopefully I'll get in about 500 hands. Well I'll update you tomorrow!

Robert
