Oh well, haven't played much since my last entry because of school and too much partying/being tired (all random excuses). But today I felt relaxed and ready to jump into the action. Unfortunately, my client was upgraded to the "resizable ipoker software" (or whatever you wanna call it), which means that my MiniMaxMod didn't work anymore. For you who don't know, it's a modification program that makes the software a lot more playable. Not gonna make this sound like an ad, but it is really helpful and multitabling becomes a lot easier because you have a clean surface, you can use your mouse in many ways, ie. right click and you pot it, use scroll to adjust betsizing and so on...
Anyway, I decided to play anyway, started with 4 tables to get used to the software and then added 2 more. Session was a bit swingy (felt so), and I ran really good in the sense that I stacked a lot of people when I hit my set/flush etc. Did some preflop mistakes and stupid bluffs in spots where I shouldn't, but it also paid off in later situations! Also noticed some different patterns between NL50 and NL100; people seem to 3-bet/4-bet a bit more, and are less reluctant to get it in light. The regulars seem to adjust their preflop-raise sizing a lot more. Saw many people 2x, 2,5x in CO/BTN, and not only w/ garbage hands but also good hands.
Here is my graph:

Biggest mistake made in the session was probably this hand:

First, I misread stacksizes, thought he had 100bb or something. I blame the software. Second, I had some previous history with him where I jammed over one of his 4-bets (in btn vs blind-war). Felt that he could very possible interpret my 3-bet as a steal and cold 4-bet in spots like these. But in hindsight this is a pretty easy muck, even though people DO this sometimes, it happens very rarily.
Also jammed 99 over a BB squeese (SB flatted my raise), and got snap called by AA. Not as big of mistake I think, but I probably didn't know enough about that opponent to make it a profitable play.

This hand felt really weird. Sometimes I do delayed c-bet like that, and bet the turn instead. He leads, I decide to put the pressure a bit. I raise pretty all my Ax there as well, charching draws and stuff. When he donkbetted the river river like that I felt he tried to get a cheap chowdown with AT or something, so I pulled my hero trigger and raised. Funny thing is he tanked to the last seconds and then called. Good read by me...
And here comes some fun hands (same opponent as above):

Decided to lead into him since my hand just sucks but he minraised a lot of buttons, figured he'd play fit and fold. Luckily I hit my gin card. Bet the turn. Check the river to induce some bets by missed flushdraws and hopefully a valuebet by Ax (who the hell doesnt valuebet Ax there?). Worked wonders, and since this was like a couple of minutes later from my J9hh spew, he called it off pretty fast.
And the last hand, where pretty much our history in sb-vs-bb finally payed off. I pretty much jumped my chair of joy when he 5-bet.

All good in other words. Gonna record a nl50 video this week since I feel more comfortable doing that now. Feel free to comment/critize my hands. Take care all =)
