This'll be my last update before the end of the stake race next Monday.

Again most of my cash play has been on Parbet as the games are so soft; it makes me think of what online poker must have been like in the beginning.

The "beat" mentioned above goes something like this: Donk, donk, donk, donk.....

Some fun hands:

1st small session at the next stakes up produced this hand. I think I have to call his shove with my Kings ;)

I've stopped playing SC OOP after my coach dropped some hints as well as CR vids saying I shouldn't. However I'm not turning down those odds!! A lesson in why you shouldn't minraise.

"But I want to see a flop" Fishing with AA.

90/23 flush chasing with no outs. Needless to say his 600BB stack disappeared entirely throughout the session and he ended up rebuying. Just a shame that I didn't get it all!

My favourite line OOP is to check/call or check/raise the river against habitual floaters especially those with a high bet river %. Villian here had taken the same line against me about an orbit ago and I let him have it. Here I snap call even with the 3-flush on the board.

Even the tight players are bad. Playing 17/14 why is he calling a bet on that flop with that hand - he just ended up getting himself into trouble.

Yes, I am betting for a reason. 70/17 guy is just not folding TP.

It really is my favourite line OOP. Thanks for the odds on the turn.

I have to admit that there's a chance that I'm running hot as I haven't suffered many bad beats that I can recall. Here's one, which isn't too bad a beat, against a 15/10 who made a real strange play. I can only assume he was steaming as he'd just ran pocket Kings into my pocket Aces on another table.

Here my 41/10 opponent criticised me for my call of his turn shove saying it was obvious he had the flush.

Lastly a lesson in paying attention. I thought that the other guy had reraised me preflop and 9's were more than good enough to stack off against him with. Doh!!
