The Poker Bus

Monday

Well I stayed @ home today and did laundry and cleaned up a little. So basically I only have boring online report for today. I really don’t remember too many interesting hands b/c I play so many that none really stand out. When I play 15/30 live, one hand can make a big difference on whether I walk away a winner or a loser and individual desicions are more important so therefore I usually put more thought into them. When I’m 4 tabling 5/10 I usually play pretty fast. Dont get me wrong, I play tight, but if it is a close desicion, I usually go ahead and throw in the extra raise. Hell, now that I think about it, I usually do this live too.

Anyways, my sleep schedule has somehow reverted back to that comparable of a normal working stiff. I was staying up until like 11am and waking up between 5-7pm. I finally tired down and am now going to bed pretty early and waking up at like 6AM. This hasn’t been too bad though as I am having moderately successful early morning sessions. So I played from 6 until 90210 started @ like 7am and made 164 bucks. Not a bad way to start before I would usually be awake.

Anyways I played throughout the day while doing laundry and stepping out to get food twice. My next break was @ +320. I actually got close to being back even before drilling a few big pots. I started this session raising too light and having to make a couple of embarrasing showdowns. Then I got a bunch of mid range pairs and couldn’t get any respect b/c of the previous raises. Therefore I was getting outdrawn. Not to worry my hands eventually started to hold up and I got paid off extra from showing down so many losers. Some of the key hands were as follows: I had Q9 in the BB and checked in a 4 way pot. Flop was Q9J two diamonds. I bet and got a caller or two and a raise. I 3 bet and got 2 callers. Turn was another Q and I bet and got 2 callers. River was the perfect card, the 10 of diamonds. I ended up getting to cap on the river. — I had AA vs. JJ on a QJX board and rivered the Ace. I also got a QKX flop when I had QQ against a KQ. There was cappage on the turn and 3 bets on the river. I basically went from down a little to up 320 in a couple of minutes.

The next break I took @ +464. Then I joined a 1-2 (6 Max) table with Slim and Checkraise. I got C/R to lay down J10 on a J108K board. I was dominated with the 10-8. One other Key hand was between Slim, Myself, and some random donk. Slim raised preflop, random donk reraised, and I capped with 99. They both called. The flop was Ace high. Slim bet out with 44, random donk raised with 99 also, and I 3 bet. They both folded. I ended up winning 35 dollars @ that table and quit @ +499 for the day. Well I couldn’t end the day up a odd number such as that, so later in the evening I blasted a .02-.04 table for the final dollar.
