My FTP is being so fucking gay its pissing me off. Basically it freezes everyhand, then unfreezes, again and again. Cant play/watch shit. So anyways I went down to the Brantford Charity Casino with my buddy. He is the guy who thinks hes going to win big at poker but is just a toolbox lol. You gotta meet the guy to understand this.
Anyways the games they have there are all LHE. 2/5, 5/10, 10/20, and 20/40. Ive only played in the 2/5 and 5/10 there. Before we went my buddy was trying to get me to play 2/5 with him because hes broke. I told him theres no fucking way im playing the 2/5 because its a joke and has 7+ people to the flop and big cards just get cracked all the time. He tried telling me that the game was easy and that playing TAG is the way to go but I kno from experience that the game is just so shitty and not worth playing in becuase no one folds shit pre flop. I decided to play the 5/10 because its still a soft game but people arent total idiots and the pots are very nice.
I had a great table to be at but had a tough start and found myself down a bit really quick. So I nitted it up a bit and waited for some good cards. Finally UTG I look at JJ. I raise and get 1 called MP and both blinds. Flop comes A6J... bingo. I check, MP bets, blinds fold I call. Turn is a 10. I bet, he raises and I start thinking MAYBE that was a good card for him but I dont think hes got it so I raise, he calls. River another J. Quads baby. I check, he bets, I raise and he just calls and shows A10. Ship it. Anyways that was a nice hand for me and got me pretty close to even. I had a shitty hand a little bit later against some never fold plug who beat my QQ with 92... not even a BB special ew.
Still down a bit I look over and my buddy is broke and looks really pissed. He comes over and says eep playin man Ill stay for a bit and of course I said alright and stayed. The next big hand I had was against this guy who was down a lot. He was that guy who you can tell is just a mess and keeps switching seats hoping to get better luck. He was to my right, it comes to him and he raises. I look down at 44 and call on the cutoff. Button folds, 1 blind calls. Flop QJ4... bingo. He leads out, I raise, blind folds. Turn is an A, he checks I bet he calls, river is a 2, he checks I bet he calls and mucks. Ship it. At this time Im basically even and kinda mad because I just get the text from my buddy saying he wants to go so I decided to just leave but man I wish I coulda stayed because my table was perfect. PRetty good day still tho even though I only broke even... he ride home sucked because I got to hear about how shitty the 2/5 game is and how hes never going to play in it again and all I could say was I told you so.
I learned a few things tho.
1) Continue to never play 2/5
2) If I go to the Casino... Im driving.
3) I love quads.
Didnt really do much today other then that but I did watch the newest episode of Entourage. DAMN it was a good one, not the same old how bout you do this movie and then having Vince saying he doesnt want to do it. I really think Ari ends up taking that job as head at Warner. Vince pulled the old guilt trip on him and it looked like it really bugged Ari. Cant wait to see what happens. My bet is Ari takes the job and Vince gets to star in a massive movie thanks to Ari. Who knows tho!
Tomorrow Im getting a massage because my back is killing me from work/hockey. Probably going to hit the gym and then go to hockey practice later during the night. Hopefully I can fucking get FTP going again so I can get back on the grind. If not probably keep going with watching my new 2nd favorite show Dexter or maybe rent a video game or some shit.

its a good game to play in, u just have to understand your opponents ranges.
hands that are good in this type of game are TJss, pp's (setmining only), any sc
the reason its so good is because you will get ultra paid on straights flushes and sets and u must avoid overplaying high pp's
obviously you have problems w/ dumping high pp's which is why this game isn't a "good" game for you
i'd sit in this 2/5 game w/ $200 and clean the table everytime gntd |
