They call me Mr. Consistent.
Last 2 weeks

Well, I woke up 30 minutes early this morning, and had a go at it.

Virtually NO big draws this session, and I'm starting to believe that I really need to improve that aspect of my game. I feel it's a major leak.

Off to AZ...GO GIANTS!

WOW I LOVE POKER!

Hmm, on the plus side, I got in over 900 hands this morning, but on the minus side I'm down 3+ FUCKING BUYINS

Made a suspect play with JQ (was a tilt hand), and got drawn out on 3 ~$10 pots. Overall not so bad, but I couldn't stack a player if my fucking life depended on it.

Anyhow, I leave for Arizona in the morning (Spring Training bitch), and I'm still undecided on whether or not I'll be playing a session tomorrow morning. I guess we'll just see how fucked up I get at dinner tonight. Chances are I'll be too hungover/drunk to play in AZ at all. But that's okay; I've reached my goal of 10K hands logged already this month, and I'm (barely) in the green

Talk about a manic couple of days. But that's poker I guess.

Anyhow, it seems like I could do no wrong this morning. EXCEPT for the two "Hands of Note"; I feel really bad about these two hands, and I'd probably feel worse if I didn't happen to have a winning session this morning.

Anyhow, one more session like this, and I'M BACK TO 50NL BITCH. I'm sthoooo excited 8)

http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/160976 Short-stack donkey faggot. Ah well; luckily I didn't notice he showed me the bluff until after my session was over It may have annoyed me a bit. Anyhow, I was doing very well at this point, and I think that affected my play a bit. I was seriously this close to putting him AI...some sort of reverse-tilt or something.

http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/160982 I really should have made a move here. And I almost made a call at the end anyway

Somebody's got a case of the Mondays

Well, for the 3rd Monday in a row, I start the week off with a losing session. As if Mondays didn't suck enough already.

I just couldn't win any coinflips, and I had more than usual this session it seems.

Anyhow, here's to finishing the week off strong!

Good session this morning.

The AQo hand I could have gotten away from. Should have raised like a man on the flop; my own fault.

I decided to give up on my plan from yesterday, and follow my gut as far as re-raising when I miss etc., and this time it worked out for me.

http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/159190 Not a fan of this play. There's really nothing that has me beat on the turn that's not calling this bet on the river I think. Pretty sure that if he held a queen, he would have called. Check/call would have been a better line.

Commentary:

I tried to play a bit more conservatively this morning.

Most notably; if I raised pre-flop in position with 1 caller, and the flop came J27, and the caller frontbet it, I'd usually re-raise him a good 75% of the time I miss the flop.

I started this session saying to myself that for every situation I got in like the one above, I would fold. This is because I lost ~$18 yesterday by re-raising people in this spot only to have them flatcall/push.

Anyhow, I could definitely see the difference in my stats this morning - my TAF (Total Aggression Factor) was down 2+ points from my average. Another thing I notice is that I lost A LOT of small pots where I cbet after missing the flop, then just completely shut down. I guess the key is to find a happy-medium between throwing my manmeat around, and learning some meekness.

One thing I really don't want to do is start to question my play. I need to continue having confidence in my decision-making abilities. I think that by binding to this rule, I really hindered myself.

TWO STEPS FORWARD, ONE STEP BACK

Crappy session.

Lost a buyin AA vs. flopped straight. Tried to push a couple other hands that missed for close to another buyin.

Won a couple hands, failed to value bet a couple other hands. Just wasn't playing my best.

Okay session.

Favorite hand was the AQ hand. If I hadn't known this guy was generally very active, I probably would have laid down TPTK.

Interesting session. 9-tabled again, and I played the most hands I've ever played in a monring session.

The AA vs. QT hand happened pretty early, and I actually didn't TILT from it (although I could feel it trying to get in).

Anyhow, couple tough laydowns, couple 2-barrel misreads, and my quads getting paid off

It's getting to be a ritual where my week starts rough, then continues well. This week start much less rough than last, though.

Pretty amazing session this morning.

I'm really enjoying 9-tabling as I'm getting ~200-250 more hands per session. Also, it's teaching me to tighten down, and I don't find myself getting bored/impatient waiting for good hands.

Hands of Note:

http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/156408 Kind of a strange hand. Whether or not I re-pop this pre-flop is player-dependent, and the guy had been pretty quiet up to this point. I hit TPTK on the flop with a lot of red cards. I was pretty certain he didn't have the flush, but I don't like betting into this flop because there's a lot of hands that would make a big move on me, and put me in an awkward spot out of position e.g. AhK KhQ QhJ ... Anyhow, once I flatcalled I gave up on the idea of building a big pot, and he seemed to like the idea of keeping it small. I thought the hand was interesting because it could have gone much, much worse for me from the get-go.
