Since I have a week off and nothing to do Im going to set a little challange for myself. The goal is to try and play 8-10k hands or to make $250 by Monday. This might not be a lot for some of you guys who play 10+ tables but I usually play maybe 4k hands a week. I think Im slacking and can do a lot better so Im going to give it a shot.

Im hoping that at the end of the week I can make it back to .5/1. I have just been stomping the .25/.50 lately... even more so then usual. Im playing pretty ABC poker and its doing the trick so Im not complaining lol. I put in a pretty sweet session for about 650 hands this morning and make $38 or 76 BB which is very very nice. Might be on a sick heater right now so I hope the doomswitch doesnt make a visit. Here are some sweeties from this morning:

Thaxd was crying after this hand beacuse he was getting walked all over by me on 2 other tables at the time this hand happened lol. He left pretty shortly after this. If I cap I think AK is a pretty big part of my range a lot of the time so he played this hand pretty bad imo.

Villan in this hand was about as ABC as you could get. If he was better you can garuntee he atleast has Middle to Top pair. Turn is a very nice card, river is just jizz pants.

So I want to play atleast 500 more hands today which should be pretty easy to kill. I might even try and play in a donkament tonight... been a while since Ive played in one of these. I would really like to take down a nice one but I run like shit in them so Im not getting my hopes up lol. Hope everyone has a great day. Ill keep you guys posted on how shes going.

like I say every time you post hands, this reminds me of the painful days of grinding micro stakes limit holdem. What a horrible life that was. I really don't like limit at all now that I've learned NL. I didn't realize there was such a big difference but there is. At least you can learn how to read boards and calculate odds and some basic moves on limit for cheap.

I hope one day you move to NL. Till then GL =)
