2 weeks in review:

I just can't properly incorporate PFR into my game.

Never open limp. Raise all PP from any position. 3-bet with a wider range.

I tried many times. It didn't work. Pure spew.

Therefore I am reverting back to my old style:
[x] Run 20/8 preflop
[x] Play against passive regulars
[x] Avoid big pots with 1-pair hands OOP
[x] Make sharp postflop decisions
[x] Profit

I know stretching a PTBB of 9 (which I achieved after my first 20k hands) over 100k hands would be far-fetched. So how about 6? I am @ 5.9 over 80k right now.

Some memorable moments from the past week

Nov 15/16 Late night. Eventful night. Run like shiet for most of the night, and then made 3 BIs against regs at the same table over 6 hands (stacked another regular within another orbit)

These hands made me want to cry:
http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/317005 QJd Standing up against a crap-pulling opponent
http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/317007 AK Ace-high vs megadonk good til river
http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/317009 QQ 2-outer
http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/317011 AK AIPF, outflopped

+3 Buy-ins within 6 hands
http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/317014 22 +$40 without seeing flop
http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/317015 KTc Good board well played
http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/317016 T9c Same opponent. Brutal board but 2-pairs held (although I later gave it back to him with a poorly played set).
http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/317017 QQ Notice the chat. Some dude is jealous.
http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/317019 K2c An orbit later. Set no good

Nov 16 evening. Winningest session ever. Not many memorable hands. Just many small to medium pots. Remarkable hands:
http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/316963 AJd Ugh
http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/316964 JJ Chaser got there
http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/316965 22 Sweet pot
http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/316966 KQ Not exactly a fistpump river shove but I was good.
http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/316968 KK Overzealous opponent
http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/317038 84c My favourite crap hand

Nov 18-19 late night:
http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/317951 73 BB special
http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/318046 99 Wierdly played. Can't question result.
http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/318047 55 Can't do anything right vs frol123 Part I
http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/318048 77 Part II =/
