Day 23: 23.6.09
Today I had my last exam in this semester. I had it in the afternoon so before it I had been learning it. I passed and decided to celebrate it in the evening. So I and my friends went to cinema. We chose new horror Drag Me to Hell. It was more funny then scary so it was good show and we laugh all the time. Then we went to pub and when we were only two we decided to go to poker club. We had good mood and we enjoyed it despite we both finished break even.
I didn’t play any session today and I’m not sure if I will play tomorrow because we have another big party in the evening. So maybe in the afternoon...
Day 22

Day 22: 22.6.09
Today I played one MTT and two sessions. MTT was 10$ buy-in on CakePoker and I was doing well but I was out in first positions in ITM when I lost in coinflip (A9 vs. 22). At the same time I played my first session and I was also doing well and was really satisfied with my game. I made good laydowns when I preflop folded QQ and one of opponent has AA and on turn I folded my JJ overpair and my opponent has set as was my read on him. Unfortunately I had bad spots in the end and had also two bad beats (AK vs KQ and then KQ vs QJ). This really pissed me off and I felt like I can’t win anymore. This is graph of this session:
I know it’s not big deal but I hate loosing. This moth is not going how I imagine and I complained to my friend. He told me to play more and I will win again. I know he is right this is only temporary feeling and every good poker player know it. I will not give up and I definitely know that I can beat this limit so I have to continue try my best.
After couple of hours, in the evening I played second session. I decided to play not four tables as I was playing till now but six tables. I play TAG style and my style is a bit tighter (my stats are 17/13) so I think I can easy handle with it. I think I play solid but I’m still learning. I play poker a bit over one year but with online poker I started in June this year. Back to my second session NL50 sixmax on Betfair and my first sixtabeling. I was doing well and sixtabeling wasn’t problem so without bad beat in this short session I won almost two buy-ins. So total result for today was +$35.2 in 1390 hands. I had in this session one tough spot where I probably made good laydown but didn’t play that hand well so how I should play this hand it better: http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/708731 ??.
In the end I have one more question on you guys. I was thinking about what is optimal openraise from SB to BB? 3BB? 2,5BB? What’s your opinion???
Total result so far: 11230 hands, -$266.23

Day 21: 21.6.09
I played two sessions today and finished break even so no big success today again. Together I played 972 hands. Today I played 10k GTD MTT on CakePoker because I played it with my friend and we had deal. I won ticket on this tournament in satellite on Friday but we both finished in this tournament very early. My friend lost QQ vs AA PFAI and I finished in battle of blinds where may jacks on big blinds were beats by Q9s. Then I played one more MTT but won only my BI back. Late in the evening my drunk friend want to play NL20 HU with me so I agree to have some fun. My friend was lucky(maybe because he was drunk) and win three buy ins on me. It pissed me of a bit and I went sleep.
Total result so far: 9840 hands, -$301.43

Day 17: 17.6.09
Today I watched some video and played HU tournament when I finished second. Final HU was pretty unlucky for me because I had 1-7 chiplead but lost 60-40 and then 40-60. In the evening I did an experiment. I tried playing LAG session NL20 on CakePoker. It was crazy rollercoaster and I had time to play only three tables. I played 263 hands and in the end of my session my stats were 49/46. It was really crazy playing but it was profitable because I won 2 BI.

Day 15: 15.6.09
Today I played two sessions with my good friend who is regular on NL100. We played 1142 hands but with result -$98.33 because we were unlucky and also made one bad play and stacked off there. But I think that our game was good and we had a few very good moments but highlight of our sessions was this hand - http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/706239. Opponent said that he had called us because he knew that we had nothing. After this we couldn’t stop laughing for a long time.
In the evening we went to card club to play live cash game (blinds 5/10 CZK = 0.25/0.50 USD). I was doing well but lost something in the end and finished almost break even (-14 BB). I had one good suckout when I 3bet KQs preflop vs. shortstack, flopped flush and pushed him all-in. He called me with top pair and caught running full house. But it was fun only for 27 BB. We finished late and in the end it was fun because we also played other games like 5 card draw, 2-7 lowball, ...
Total result so far: 6403 hands, -$357.61
