Finally Get Some Playing Done

After about 10 days of barely playing, due to laziness but mainly flat hunting, I resumed playing tonight.

I don't want to over exaggerate, but I felt I played some of the best poker I have ever played. The problem was, the poker gods didn't co-operate, and I dropped about $250 in a couple of hours 6 tabling 2/4. However, I feel very confident about my game, and can take a lot of heart from this session.

Here's some hands from today. I'm really going to try to add a lot of hands here in the future.

KK < AT all in pre, obv

Can't work out if I played this one well. I think I did play it ok, and probably lost the minimum on it. No reads on opponent, apart from that he limped too much.

Top set < Flush draw, obv

Ok river call, or just spew? I think it's ok cos he could easily have Kx.

Anyone like a double barrel on the turn to fold out 77/88/TT/JJ, which I put him on (as well as 99)? I think I could have taken that pot away from him. Opponent was about 25/8 and pretty passive.

Lol @ this hand. He actually tanked the river before calling off the extra $21 into the $850 ish pot. Ship it!

Was going for a turn checkraise. Ended up giving the fish a free card. Lol @ his river CALL with a flush.

Finally get a hand to take someone to valuetown on.

Tough river call with a straight, when he's representing the flush.

Tough cooler for the other guy, he wasn't too deep though.

http://www.pokerhand.org/?817483

Looks like he got caught floating...


Kind of a tough session, with some ridiculous beats. But on another day I think I could have booked a very solid profit. Hopefully that day will be tomorrow. I'll update again then, gonna play loads tomorrow. Have finally rediscovered my enthusiasm for playing.

Good luck at the tables,

Dan.
