Today I had a pretty slow day for the first bit. I woke up and fired up some tables but it was just a shitty time and I couldnt get ahead if I tried. I ended up taking a break and going out to play a pretty sick game of road hockey with a bunch of my buddies until around dinner time.

I came home, made some food and then tried out the tables again. It was a lot of the same garbage just breaking even again. I have been break even for about 5k hands so it was getting boring lol. I ended up taking another break and going out and buurning a ew joints with some bddies. My buddies tha tI went out with all play poker so we talked a lot about cards and I was itching to play by the time I got home. Things went really well and I managed to make a +3 BI day.

Here is the graph:

Heres a few hands from today:

This was the biggest winner of the day but I had some troubles on the river here. So I get called preflop by 1 guy. I was putting him on a small broadway hand like KQ, QJ, KJ or maybe even AQ, AJ. No monster hand like AA, KK, or QQ here because for this guy that is a for sure 3bet. Im pretty happy with the flop. Big hand on a big flop. So I bet out and get flat called. Now on the turn I get raised even though the turn is a brick. The only hands I can see him playing like this are maybe AK but I dont think he has that, AQ, AJ, QJ. The hands with the Jx in them are much less likely since I have the J. Then the river brings a K which hits his range of hands a bit too. KQ, KJ. All of these hands I have rocked so far. A hand like A10 just wouldnt be played that was so it made no sence for him to be holding that and if he was it was a total cooler. So I make the call and Im happy buddy is just a total retard. Ship.

Obviously I really like my hand Preflop but I do not like how I get so many callers. I made a pretty big raise preflop... I honestly cant remember why I made it that much I think it was a rediculous raise lol and with 3 callers Im not happy. So the pot is huge on the flop and my Cbet size would be pretty much putting all 3 players all in so I make the bet. Sure enough Im well ahead and take it down.

The guy in this hand had a crappy beat laid on him the hand before. I was really hoping he would be steaming because of that hand. I raised him and he instantly shoved so I decided to call hoping I would be in a flip with the guy or have him rocked. I had him rocked and we can clearly see that his guy just was on a monster tilt. *NOTED*

The player in this hand was a pretty fishy character. It felt to me like a lot of the time he was trying to push guys off hands with his stack and it had been working for him. This hand I decided to take the passive route on him to see if I was right. Im curious if maybe a 3 bet would be alright vs this type of player because I am for sure ahead of his range and I have position. What would you guys have done? Anyways I checked the flop and he checked back so I was pretty sure he was weak or really scared of that A so I felt like my hand was good here. I checked hoping he would bet into me and he did jus that. I called and a 10 hits the river. This is I guess a good scare card but again I really thought he was just trying to push me off hands and the big bet on the river after a checked flop felt exactly like that. So I just wanted to look him up incase I was wrong but that wasnt the case.

This one stung a bit. I was hoping he had KJ, KQ here. Not so much. QJ makes a lot of sense just the way he played it but Im good here enough to stick it in.

This one was another race against a guy on mega-tilt. Didnt win it

http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/647595
Definitly thought I would have got 3 bet with him holding KK here but maybe he thought he was slowrolling me. Nice flop for him and we get it in. My AA are shattered

This one I was almost sure I was beat but I cant fold it and I think I played it fine. I hate sticking it in with JJ pre because its in tough shape almost always. I even called it out in my head "Hes got QQ." Nice to be right but sucks to have the losing hand here.

Its nice to see that a lot of my hands that Ive lost are pretty standard shit. Its not like Im getting seriously outplayed or making terribly spewy calls so Im really happy with how I played today even though it was a struggle for a while.

Its fucking late right now, almost 4am so today Im going to be sleeping in for a while... not likely to get up anytime before 12:00 lol. Im going out to St. Catharines for the night to party with a bunch of my buddies. Should be a total shit show and I cant wait. Havent been up there partying with those guys in a while. Before though Im going to put in some hands and hopefully crush so I can go out with a good feeling about the day lol.

Later guys,
