From One Extreme To Another

My cards tonight that is! I found it tough going trying to play a SLAG style tonight, I was either getting dealt premium hands or absolute garbage. One table I played at my VPIP was only 12%, and another only 13% - nothing I could do. I lost count of the amount of times I got dealt aces though, but got little action on them.

I made just under $50 in about 80 minutes which I still can't complain about as it's above my hourly earning rate at this level, which stands at $19.25/hr.

I didn't stack anyone, or get stacked myself, in fact I didn't really play many hands of interest.

One hand where I tried to keep the pot small, but I wasn't really sure if I had the best hand. I think this shows the danger of playing garbage hands out of the blinds. I was out of position obviously and he was representing a King throughout.
