Today started off really slow on NL25, and went down -3BI due to variance, losing with cowboys vs jacks n so on for stacks..after a while I heated up and made back what I lost. During the session all I could think about was moving up and getting into some real games, so after I went up a couple BI's on NL25 I moved up to NL50 to see how I'd fair.

It's been over a month since I've played on these stakes, but I felt more comfortable than ever. My game is perfect for the NL50 dynamic and I definately get paid alot more there. I'm going to play NL10 & NL25 mostly, as I only have 20 buy-ins for NL50 which takes away from the comfort level. I'm definately going to take shots at the end of winning sessions on NL50 though, and hopefully be full-time there soon.

Heres todays stats;

During current Hold'em session you were dealt 2887 hands and saw flop:
- 225 out of 400 times while in big blind (56%)
- 126 out of 390 times while in small blind (32%)
- 363 out of 2097 times in other positions (17%)
- a total of 714 out of 2887 (24%)
Pots won at showdown - 92 of 160 (57%)
Pots won without showdown - 354

I'm going to go over a few key hands then go play some starcraft and relax, I'm only going to post large pots for now on, the smaller ones are pretty much never worth posting.

vs ekfrl - Open my AQ in MP behind the UTG limper, pretty standard. I was cont betting 3.5 into pretty much every pot I played, whether I was shutting down on the turn or continuing was up to what I had and my opponents holdings. He bought into my flop bet, and well... I just couldn't see him playing a set like this. Stacks went in and I took down a nice pot.

vs redfall - I really don't know what this guy was thinking. Pretty obvious on the flop he has nothing, just flat and let him hang himself.

vs FrankieF4F - Frankie had beaten me in 3 consecutive pots we had played together. I'm pretty sure he thought I was reraising him light out of frustration. I got a nice flop & stacks went in.

vs Trigger1985 - Unfortunately I just lost a big pot on this table taking my stack from 80~35. Didn't reload, shit!

Flopped a dream flop from the bb and semi-trapped trigger. My line screams set, can't believe he couldn't let it go. Oh well, guess he thought I was tilting from the pot before.

vs Sir Poko - This was definately my worst spew of the day. I don't know what the heck I was thinking, but the only hands I beat is KT/KJ. Psh...I'm going to do my best to never spew like this again.

vs Flugihempi - Man this guy sucks. He beat me in a 70/30 flip and a 54/46 flip...what a dick.

vs JamesMax - Opened my QQ in MP and got a couple callers, along with an optimal flop. A couple open enders with a top pair lower than my QQ. I put out an overpriced bet for draws to draw to, and picked up a caller. At this point I'm putting him on a jack or something like QKs. I make him pay and he does just that.

vs Steev1988 - sb vs bb - I didn't think he would be reraising me this light with my raising out of the sb behind a limper in MP. But oh well I was mistaken. I repopped and got value PF, but was scared to bet down since AK shrivels up on a 3across face card board. Was check calling just about any bet though.

vs Super020 - Not really sure what this guy was thinking. I put him on a strong draw, maybe a completed flush. At this point vs his stack after the bets were made I wasn't going to fold so I just shipped it. Was happy he turned this hand over and not QK. I don't really like this play in the long run.

vs Elbocanegra - OMG. OMG. OMG. WHAT THE FUCK. THIS SHIT?

vs Pityu85 - Good opportunity to bluff this river and pick up the pot. Put the villian on something like 9T, QJ or something like that. The river was perfect.

vs Pokerpimus - This hand was nice, was pretty sold he was on a weak king til river. I think if he is on a king on this river a good C/R AI might be a strong play, what do you guys think?

Well thats all I'm going to post today,
I'm going to have to make like 5k FPP in the next couple days if I want to maintain my platinumstar into the next month. Took a long time off this month and spent so much time on microstakes...kinda hurt me. Think I'm gonna enjoy a nice pipe & some starcraft for now. Worry about that later.

GL to all of LP,
Ryan (DReaMe)

PS - 27,710 FPP til SuperNovA!
