Just played a 750 hand session. Won 70 bucks on my 1/2 table. Lost 20$ on NL100. Had some bad fortune, on the bad end of a set over set for a full stack. Also ran AK into AA on an Axx flop for half a stack. Luckily a guy donated a full stack to me when I button raised KQd... Flop Axx all diamonds. He check raised the flop, I flat called, turn another diamond, he bet pot, I call, river he shoves and I call. He had JTo... no diamond. Bad time for the stone cold bluff. I should be playing more, cause the tables are so fishy right now, but my motivation is minimal. Definitely playing more this weekend, maybe tonight, but tomorrow at the very least.

Busy
I haven't been playing very much the last few days. A few short sessions where I have run okay. I think I've had three since my last post. Basically been about -100, +160, +100. My last session right now I made $120 on my 1/2 table, but was down $10 on NL100. Mostly because of a cooler where I 3bet with AK, board A73K, and we got it allin on the turn and he had 33. I almost got away from this, because this guy raised 11%, and very rarely folded to 3bets which means hes set mining alot. Lost $100 there, but the rest of the session went pretty good.
Been not very motivated lately. I feel like partly like I've acheived alot of goals by getting to this point as a poker player. Where I've executed good bankroll management, and beat the game over an extended period of time. I've been super busy with summer school, church, friends, girlfriend. So been squeezing in small sessions when I can. But motivation has been lacking, and I feel really okay about not playing much at all. I'll post more about my lack of desire to be playing later.

Downswing?
I had a really good week last week, mostly because of 26/90s. But just had my 2nd session for the day and lost $250 in an hour. I didn't lose more than 50$ in any pot, and was shocked when I saw how much I was stuck. This makes today a -$400 day which sucks. I seemed like a was folding a ton of rivers, cause 4card straights/flush, and every bad river card in the book was rolling off, and then people were shoving/betting pot. Hopefully it turns around tomorrow... and I might be playing some live game tomorrow night.

Weekends :)
Didn't play yesterday, but tonight I got back to it. Ran well on cash games today. Took some weekend bad beats, but that is kind of normal. Also lost AA to KK allin preflop. However, I got it in on a flop with a set against flush and made my boat. Altogether I think it evened out as far as allin EV. The donkeys were out in full force and donating. Over 2k hands I made $340 which is a very solid day. It's nice to run good, since last weekend wasn't that great. I've been on a nice little heater and I hope it continues.
Played two 26/90s and the 28k. The first 26/90 I took 5th which was a disapointment. I had a nice stack but raised A7, and a A9x flop vs 99 and I doubled him up. Then got KJ in v QJ and he flopped the joint. The other 26/90 I had two KOs but a guy open limped in the c/o with AA, I shoved in the BB with 77, and that was it for me. The 28k was going fine, until AT lost to AT on a Txx flop, he went runner runner flush.
Very solid day. Probably won't play much tomorrow but I hope the luckbox keeps working.

Sweet Sesh
Played cash session plus one 26/90. Took 2nd in the 26/90 even though I was up against a super donk and had big chip lead. I was super dead to start, then lost top 2 vs backdoor flush. But ran super good until then... hope I can keep that sickness going (last four ive taken 2nd 1st 18th 2nd).
Played cash, won about $120 on my 1/2 table, and won $170 in a sweet session of NL100. Just ran hot and had decent timing. Coulda been even bigger... had KK v JJ on a KJT flop where I put in a huge raise. It came running AQ and we chopped it. Oh well, I'll still take the very nice day. Might play more tonight... until then Go Lakers!

Weak
Just finished a quick cash session that was one of the worst I've had in a while. I've ran pretty good the last few months, so I can't complain too much. I've avoided these awful sessions where I run way way below EV. It was 700 hands, I lost $160, but shoulda be +$30. Also ran 80$ below EV in my session earlier.
I had some bad rivers. Allin on flop overpair, 2 outer (small pot). Allin on turn with top set, 8 outer. Earlier today had AK allin preflop for 40 BBs vs J8 and lost. Lost a few races against short stacks. The worst was that I flopped several sets in raised pots. And multiple times I didn't even get a continuation bet out of it. It was like they could see my cards.
Here is what would have been a sick hand...

Luckily I was raised out preflop, but certainly I lose all my money on that flop. After this hand I quickly ended my session because it was clear it wasn't going to be a good night. When you are on the very bottom end of set over set over set on the flop... it's time to call it a night.
I'm glad I've pwned a few 26/90s the last two days, cause cash has sucked, hopefully it turns around.

Weeee
Didn't really play on Monday. But played yesterday and today. Had some crappy cash sessions, just not running that great (KK v AA for 125BBs). Down like $150 on NL100 and down just about $50 on my 1/2 table.
However played a couple of 26/90s and a few MTTs. Both MTTs went poorly yesterday, but the 26/90 I played I got 2nd. Ran very well until HU, when I couldn't hit a hand. Also the guy HU was a solid player and he played well.
Then just now I played another 26/90 and I took it down. Ran very well throughout and won the important pots. HU only went a few hands, and this guy wasn't very good. But the final hand is hilarious...

I'm guessing he just didn't put me on an Ace since I had been raising alot preflop, and just didn't think I would call a shove. A nice way to end it and finally ship one of these. Might play some more later.

I guess I'll just run bad in these, and keep pwning 26/90s... sounds like a good deal to me.

Improvement
Last night things weren't going well at all on the NL100 grinding. So I cut the session off short because I think I just had too much poker for one day.
Today was better. I played a few 26/90s, while playing in six 1800ftps token satelites. All three 26/90s I ended up getting pwned in. Just ran bad deep in them which really sucked, but it happens. Those things are such high variance. In the satelites I won 3 of them, should have been 4 but lost two races and a 80/20 on one of them on the bubble.
Finally had some success on my 1/2 table. While playing those sngs I won $150 on the cash table. Then in two other sessions I won some more bringing me to +250 on the day on the 1/2 table. I'll be happy when I just get to even on my own table (down $350 so far).
My NL100 session tonight went well. Won $140 in a 950 hand session. Coolered a guy who raised with JTd, flopped a flush when I flopped a set. But I turned a boat and we got it allin.
I was looking at OPR, and noticed that my ROI in tournaments 46-180 players is 75%. I think Jimmy's is very close to that as well, so for some reason we excel in those size fields. Maybe I should be playing more of those, and save myself the heartache of big MTTs. I felt alot better about my game today, I think yesterday I played too much (afternoon, then at oceans, then another online session at night) and in my night session I felt like I played very poor. I need to not burn myself out in a given day and try to stay fresh. Hopefully can grind a decent amount of hands the next week before my more time consuming summer school class starts.
BTW... here is a hilarious hand from one of my tables... unfortunately the guy who won the hand left right after, and I never got into a hand with the other donk...

Oceans
Just pwned Oceans for $400 in the 2/3 NL game. Things started off well, and I was fortunate to make some good hands. I think I played well overall, but maybe a bit too passive in a few spots. I feel like this is common for me, and when I err it's usually on the passive side. This happens more in live than online, and next time I play live I want to be a bit more assertive in the way I play. Nonetheless I am happy that the last four times I've gone to oceans I've been a winner, and not had to pull alnighters to do it.
Probably going to grind a little bit tonight and turn the weekend around. It's gone okay in NL100, but just been getting owned on my new 1/2 table. Hopefully that will turn around so that my online roll doesn't get low. Also I think I'm due for a nice tournament cash. I'll report back later after I play.

Blah
My first session this morning went pretty well. But this afternoon sucked. On my 1/2 table I won $100 this morning, but ran KK into AA this afternoon. So I continue to run pretty bad there. On my NL100 tables I did well this morning, but just had terrible timing this afternoon. I experimented with running some squeezes with suited connectors. All three times I tried I got at least one callers, and continuation bets weren't working either. However, everytime I did the same with big pairs, no action. In hindsight I shouldn't have tried this out, at least not today because it's the weekend and people don't know how to fold. I do think this is a good thing to try a little bit during the week when the players are more solid and it would be good for mixing it up and being less predictable. Overall down $100 on the day I think on cash, and a few 26$ buyins for tournaments.
Might be done for the day online because I might go play live at oceans. I went last night and won $200 in about 4 hours in the late night 2/3 game. I might go play 8/16 because it is so donkey, and the decisions are very easy. If I don't then I'll definitely be online to play tonight.

Sad day, but going to play a ton tomorrow
Just had another session and the cash tables went better. +150 on NL100, and like +25 on my 1/2 table. Got f'ed in tournaments. The 35k I went out after about an hour and I honestly don't remember how. Played a 26/90 and things were going well. Ran pretty well late and had a top 3 stack. On the bubble I shoved the button with 66, the BB woke up with AQ and called, and hit. Then I was down to 13k (blinds 8/16 I think) and shove AJ the next hand... the BB had the same stack as me and called off with KJ and pwned me with a K on the flop. Donks win.
Played the 22rebuy. Had a super donkey table but didn't get many hands the first hour. Had to rebuy twice and added on, but got hot after the break. Built up a nice 17k stack, whiffed a couple of flops. Then raise 99, 1 caller, and the superdonk shoves 5k in, I overshove and he hits his A4o. Few hands later, I 3bet the c/o raiser from the SB (I had done this a few times before cause he opened so wide), he 4bet, I instashove 10k, he calls AQ. Flop Qxx all hearts, and he rivers the 4card flush.
I think I've played enough today down about $300. Hopefully the rest of the weekend goes better, I think I'll play alot of cash tomorrow. At least I should be getting some big rakeback for all the hands I'm putting in.

Table curse
So apparently my new table is cursed and I can't win on it. I grinded for a while today while playing a 26/90, and was down $50 on my NL100 tables. But managed to lose $450 on my new personalized 1/2 table. Mostly just running bad, I don't think I am playing much different. There were some big donkeys at the table today, and they happened to be hitting hands.
I was cruising along in my 26/90 then this hand happened... boy do I run good...

Ended up taking 4th place. Starting 4handed we all had similar stacks, but I went card dead. The other 3 guys were like psycho aggro, which made it tough for me. My raises would get called, and they would lead into me with a pot size bet, and I would have to fold. They also defended quite frequently so I couldn't steal with a very wide range. Ended up raising JT, guy called me, flop Q99, I shoved and he called with KQ, turn Q and it was over for me.
Fairly uneventful session on the NL100 tables. Sure wish I didn't get pwned at the 1/2 table. Biggest hand I flopped top pair and the nut flush draw. We ended up getting it allin 3ways on the flop, one guy flopped top two, the other guy had the weaker flush draw and a gutshot str8 draw. The guy with top two held. The rest of the pots I lost weren't as big. One hand a guy raised utg, 3 callers, I put in a big 3bet with AK, one guy calls (over half his stack was in preflop), flop T74, I put him in and he has the 44 of course. There was another $100 bucks. It'll be sweet when I hit a rush on that table... hopefully that'll happen soon. Cause I don't like losing $450 in one session.

Ended up taking 4th place. Starting 4handed we all had similar stacks, but I went card dead. The other 3 guys were like psycho aggro, which made it tough for me. My raises would get called, and they would lead into me with a pot size bet, and I would have to fold. They also defended quite frequently so I couldn't steal with a very wide range. Ended up raising JT, guy called me, flop Q99, I shoved and he called with KQ, turn Q and it was over for me.
Fairly uneventful session on the NL100 tables. Sure wish I didn't get pwned at the 1/2 table. Biggest hand I flopped top pair and the nut flush draw. We ended up getting it allin 3ways on the flop, one guy flopped top two, the other guy had the weaker flush draw and a gutshot str8 draw. The guy with top two held. The rest of the pots I lost weren't as big. One hand a guy raised utg, 3 callers, I put in a big 3bet with AK, one guy calls (over half his stack was in preflop), flop T74, I put him in and he has the 44 of course. There was another $100 bucks. It'll be sweet when I hit a rush on that table... hopefully that'll happen soon. Cause I don't like losing $450 in one session.

Grinding and people reading my soul
Grinded about 2k hands today and also got HEM fixed! So I have my stats back, and it sure is nice. First session didn't go that well, but I got on a nice roll in the second session and altogether won about $170.
Also played the 35k while grinding and it was pretty uneventful. I was short stacked when we hit the second break, but I was able to come back. I raised AA utg, and check the 843 flop, the guy bets, I shove and he tanks before calling with AT. Was just about up to the average (10k), when I raised A9 on the button and the BB called. The flop was K87, check check. Turn 6, he bet about 1/2 pot into me. The bet was 1500, and he had 5k behind. I raised to 5250, and he tanked before shoving. Of course I called, he shows me K7o, and I brick the river. Sick read to shove with 3rd pair there. Especially because I had slowplayed flops before... even as the preflop raiser. Oh well... I felt like it was a good play, and ended up with more outs than I thought I had.
Gonna try to keep grinding as much as I can and hopefully put up a ton of hands this month.

Why we play...
I grind alot of hands on the cash tables. I try to avoid the regulars, but even among the unknowns, most of them have some idea what they are doing. However, the great days are when the players at your table have no idea what they are doing and are just giving their money away... that is why we play. Here are 3 hands from my session today, with players who clearly have about no chance of winning money on this site. I lost one of the hands to an utg limp/call with J5o, but I don't really mind too much.

Just hilarious how he didn't figure out at some point that Ahigh might not be good. I guess his pot odds were good?
This session was kind of up and down and I ended up in many sticky positions with QQ (it seriously seemed like everyone was 3betting me when I had QQ). Not having my stats definitely hurt me cause I couldn't see peoples 3bet% and stuff like that. Oh well, I think I played them ok.
Only was up about $75 on the session even with the donations, but I'll take profit anyday on the cash tables.
