Sigh. Targeted 6 hours and fell short. Meh.

One of my friends sweat me for an hour today. Session was fun w a lot of unorthodox lines taken and running good too :P

This is where I love them recreational players. Unlike normal regs who use the same/similar-ish lines day in day out, these guys always come up w some weird (and sometimes awesome!) lines.
I try copying those annoying lines (when its used against me X( ) since its pretty pretty fun to force regs out of their comfort zones where mistakes are gonna be higher.
Though tbh, most of the creative lines were taught to me by my coach who in turn was taught by a crazy person :D
It makes poker fun too :D

Today was a good day in EV terms; though most of it was due to me being on the right end of coolers than me playing (or trying to play) uberawshum.

Tough day today. Bad side of card variance. Was forced to make some really big folds :f_frown:
Quite pleased that I didn't lose more though. Small victories eh ^_^

I suck. Nuff said. Though in my defense, I didn't get access to the PC since my bro and his friends were gaming.
Although I did sacrifice an hour of my grinding time to watch GoT. No I don't regret that :P

Coach has suggested a small prop bet on volume (hours) played b/n 15th to 29th. On winrate too. So lets hope I rungood and grind more to win his moniez _evil:

Short session so not really any interesting hands. Quite pointless posting cooler-ish hands or normal hands vs recreational players.

Taking off target. Lets not make myself too depressed :f_biggrin:

I'm not sure if its good card variance or if I'm actually starting to beat this limit comfortably. Would need to see after a 100k sample.

MP was a guy who for some reason has always tried to outplay me....and succeeded (in the few decent sized pots that we've played). Not sure whether its only me he is annoyed against or if he plays this way against all.

W/e it is, there is history b/n us :f_biggrin:

Got uber destroyed today. Like uber destroyed :f_cry:

Lets get the ugly graph outta the way first

Brutal day. Though tbh after discussing w coach, some were preflop mistakes which could have saved me some monies. At least on the bright side it does make me reflect on spots and hands more and see where I could have taken a superior line.
