Well I remember what good games were again finally. I found a game over at q stix pool hall. Its a 1-2 but plays like an action 5-5. The game was so loose that I had to tighten up way more than I ever would like too. But it was just stupid because everyone was calling everything. So it was stupid to ever try to make some moves on anyone.
Decided to just play ABC tight aggressive poker, but milking when I thought it was profitable.
Every draw pretty much got there on me today it SEEMED like. I played very timid compared to how I usually play. I wasnt making any big moves on anyone or anything too advanced.
I did fold the best hand one hand when I had AQ and there was 8 $30 dollar preflop callers. I hit top pair bet out and I knew the monkey went all in with the nut flush draw and I decided to fold even thought I knew it was the best hand for 2 reasons. A) I was even if I just folded. B) my bankroll isnt looking so hot right now so if i ended up losing the pot I was stuck 600 from my 3k bankroll I pretty much have. C) I knew the longer I sat with these idiots the more I would win.
I ended up winning 350, which was good for nothing hitting really anything all night. It defintly was a test of patience and waiting it out like you have too. Played from 9-5. Im stoned, and tired.
I need to go running tommorrow, I always felt so much better and alert when I did. It was Dezis fault today.
So all in all a semi productive night.
I also thought about an issue quite a bit tonight, was that I always get ahead of myself. I let my emotions run wild and I get cocky. And I started to do that tonight thinking I was destined for greatness and running with it. Thinking in my head all these guys are idiots and I could outplay them any given day. But the fact of the matter was and I relized this when I calmed myself down, Is that I just have to simply let these guys give me there money here and there. Because my bankroll and my responsiblites to myself wouldnt let me get out of line. And that really works for me becasuse I can end up balancing it so that its a good mixer of game.
Things to work on or think about - Staying more focused when im running bad and trying to still attack with confidence no matter how im running. I do better as an aggressor instead of passive thinking. Unfortenly I have to wait to be able to do that again.
Looking forward to vegas to make some money. Once I get my bankroll was to where it was or at 10k, I am going to start opening up my range and attacking the pots I need to be attacking. Until than Im going to grind my way back up just like I did in the first place.
