Seen the flop percentages of 45%, and 35% on two different tables after 85 hands and 100 hands respectively... Loose? lol

$400 up this month...

Promises

As I'm sure your all very (un) interested, I include here a graph of my winnings this year. Value's in dollars,



Interesting really, no MASSIVE swings...

Won back most of my losses from previous posted session, with a draw I was priced in on, but shouldn't have been. I got lucky really.

Anyways, progress exam was SOLID today, tax it was and failed I did... Oh well, about 2 months till real one. Fingers crossed.

Off to see 'The Kingdom' tonight, unlike C ('A year in the life...' - see links) this will not be a premiere, and unfortunately, Jennifer Garner will NOT be there. Instead it's in Llandudno Junction, and I am more likely to be sat next to Mr & Mrs A Chav.

Best of luck to the C man getting out of the poker rut, I of course don't know what this feels like ;)

hehehe

Finally, check out http://www.highstakesdb.com it's a pretty cool site that tracks all the big online cash games. David Benyamine seems to absolutely rinse the world!

Finished High Stakes Poker Series 3, and it's a great series, especially when Jamie Gold leaves... The last few episodes are the best, and much more interesting to watch than a preflop allin fest of the latest Joe Poker winning the latest WPT, and becoming the latest poker millionaire, coin flip expert...

Long time no blog...

I've now been sentenced to 3 weeks hard labour in Northest Wales... Studying for my next exams in mid-December.

This is not good... However, I have managed to fit in a couple of fun trips to London recently, and it was great to hook up with old friends...

Saw two bands, 'Oh no, Ono', a Scando band... They may be good, but I don't really know as they were so loud my ears were bleeding by the time the first riff had been strummed...

'Nine Black Alps'... Not wonderful

I have been playing a bit of poker this month, 30 mins cash here and there. It was going very well until this evening ($177 up after 195 mins play).

I lost two crucial hands, as follows... both $0.50/$1.00

I'm on the button with 56os, and folded to me, I raise to $3. Called in both SB and BB (I have been playing loose-aggressive to this point)...

Flop comes magically 2, 3, 4... SB bets $4, BB folds, I call...

Turn, 10 (no flush draws). SB bets $9 I call

River a 3, SB bets $9, he has $18 left, I limit raise to $18, he goes allin, I call...

He turns over 10 10 for a runner, runner full house... Which was nice!

I then miss a bunch of times with AK, AQ etc. Finally, 4 limpers, I check my option on the BB with 8 5os.

Flop comes 8 5 K (2xclubs). I bet out $4. Called MP, all others fold.

Turn a 9. I bet out $10. He calls. He has a weak K I think...

River a wonderful 9, and I'm counterfeited by his marvelous K7...

I also made a couple of steamy raises that didn't get thru, inc a very silly one after I KNEW the guy was trap checking the river to me.

I'm now down to +$84 for the month after 245mins play.

I'm so pissed, cos I KNOW I've been playing really well, and to be hit twice in this session to screw my month up really annoys me. I'm prob gonna take the rest of the week off, to concentrate on studies.

Positively tho, I have not been stacked this month once in 15 buyins, which is where I'm really trying to improve. I'm playing much more solidly, and not giving my chips away as cheaply as previously...

Gotta go, I'll include a graphical summary of profits next post... How exciting?!?!?!?!?!

Off to Chester for the weekend with my girlfriend that'll be really cool, also breaks up the studying and monotony of North Wales...

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz..............
