Bah! Rungood over!

Busted out of the tourney when short with A9 < A5

Then went to play the £1/£1 cash game, had a big hand where I doubled with QQ over JJ, after I got AA to fold Then got tangled with a deep stack Lagtard.

I have QQ UTG, after straddle, I open to £6, one guy calls and BU Lagtard raises to £22. I flat call and so does the other guy. Flop comes 9T4r, checked to 3bettor, who bets £68 into a £75ish pot. Other guy gets ready to fold, I tihnk "Wtf is he betting that big on such a dry board for? He wouldn't do that with TT, KK or AA would he?" So I shove over the top for about £100 more. He snaps with QJ, and the turn brings the 8 :( Biggest pot i've ever been in :(

Oh well, shit happens.

Well, things didn't go quite as well as Day 1 today I started off by playing a bit of PLO10 and finished up 2.5 stacks, then went onto my grind of NL25. As you can see that started pretty badly, I lost a load of flips, ran into some setups, got rivered a few times wa wa wa wa no one cares The important thing is I brought it back up to only 1 stack down and the day back to breakeven.

So first things first, my day's graph:

Now here's a first for this blog, a PLO hand :O Shock horror. Now since I know barely anything about PLO strategy, I thought i'd just share my most favouritest hand of the day! Enjoy the Straight Flush.

Poker Stars $10.00 Pot Limit Omaha Hi - 5 players - View hand 1346786
DeucesCracked Poker Videos Hand History Converter

Hero (BTN): $11.55

Turn: ($14.53) 2♠ (2 players - 1 is all in)

River: ($14.53) 8♦ (2 players - 1 is all in)

Final Pot: $14.53

CO shows 3♦ 4♥ K♥ Q♦
Hero wins $13.81
(Rake: $0.72)

I will probably play another session tonight if I feel like it, and hopefully within the next 2 days i'll have completed my promised 10k hands of NL25 SH and will move up to NL50 for a 2BI shot :) Hoping for some rungood to accompany my 3rd move up to NL50

Haha yeah I know it is, I was messing about at that point, trying to get into tough postflop spots to see if I could hand read whilst I was being railed by someone who actually knows how to play PLO It was just lucky I flop the nuts haha.

Haha thanks! I'd forgot about that

Played another session last night and ran well at the beginning, I was about 4BI up before shit hit the fan, and I lost a 400bb pot with set over set :O That wasn't cool, so only ended the session $40 up overall, but still good

Just over 1,000 hands left until I can move up to NL50

Also watched another video that I forgot to mention last night, just so you know i'm not slacking in my studies I watched Part 2 of the Yin and Yang series, it's really quite helpful and i'm trying these unorthodox lines against the right opponents more when the situation arises :)

I'm pretty new here and played for the first time with real money on FTP today (I lost one starting bankroll on Pokerstars like two years ago already, 'cause I had no clue whatsoever )...anyway, I really enjoy reading your blog and I think learned quite some stuff from it...so, many thanks and keep it up!!!

Oh and a late, late happy birtday ;)

Haha thanks for the praise I hope you keep reading!

Just played in the Big $11 and the Sunday Storm. The outcome is me running like shit

First lose with AKs vs K4s in a 3bet pot, fish flops 2pair, then I get it in vs him with A9 against A8 and lose that as well. End up going out with 88 vs AJ vs QK and lose to both. So that was me out of the Big 11.

In the Sunday Storm I double up with AA vs KJ, then lose a big pot with ATs vs Q8o, guy flops trips. Then lose my all in flip with AQ vs 44.

[ ] Runs good in MTTs

Also ran terribad at NL25 today :f_mad: Played a 1k hand session and ended down $75, just one of those sessions where absolutely nothing goes right. But oh well, forget about it, Gonna play one more session of NL25 and then hopefully i'll still be rolled for NL50 2BI shot imminent!

Thanks I might put the fact that I have a photo of a dog in sunglasses in the title of this blog, should bring in more readers!

As for poker, well that's gone terribly today. Down 7.4BI at NL25 and any hope of moving up to NL50 today has long gone out of the window. I think the way I can sum up my session is by the fact I lost a hand where I had AKs and went all in preflop against AKs and ended up losing to a runner runnered flush. Ty poker, gg. Had various sets ruined by rivered flushdraws or unlikely flopped straights in 3bet pots etc etc.

Cliffs: Poker is fucked. I'm going to spend the rest of the night studying.

Gonna watch this series on finding leaks and go through my database at the same time....erm..... finding my leaks

Now, what to eat? Pie and Wedges or a pizza? The decisions I have to make!

The pie is Minced Steak and Onion, and the wedges are McCain's Lightly Spiced wedges, but i'm going to add some Paprika to them for an extra kick _cool:

Yay or Nay?

hmm tough spot....

I think you only have an average flavour pie here, steak and ale or chicken and mushroom is an obvious yes.

what flavour pizza? or is it takeout so you can pick?

It's a frozen pizza :( Goodfellas Pepperoni.

I agree, very tough spot, I think at best i'm flipping here. Do I just shove [one of them in the oven] and hope for the best? Or is that a bit fishy?
