Sup Gang,
Had a session over the weekend where I started off losing with T8hh on 883 v AA for half my stack. Built that back up to about $350 and then got it in with J9dd on JT7dd and bricked out. Felt pretty shitty and just bounced after that.
Session 5 Recap-
Time: 2 hours
Buyin: $300
Stakes: 2/5NL
Cashout: $0
Profit: $-300
Cheers,

Sup Gang,
Just got back from the casino. Was a pretty good session as we were playing 7-8 handed for the majority of the night and the table was pretty soft. People were just overplaying their hands and making really bad call downs. I didn't do anything tricky, just opened and cbet bluffed with a couple hands but besides those, most of my hands were for value. The toughest hand of the night was when I opened UTG+1 with AA over a limp and got 2 callers. Flop came down 862cc. UTG checks, I cb 45, other dude folds and UTG calls. Turn is 4x and again the guy c/c my bet of 110 with about 250 behind. River comes 7x and he open ships and I call and he tables 97o. Besides that I was pretty much cruising and playing kinda nitty but I was fine with that. I was getting really good value from these players that called down with like MP or BP.
My friend is having his bday tmw at the same casino so I'll get a chance to grind a little bit on a Friday which is rare. Hopefully the action is good and ya boy can make some money.
Session 4 Recap-
Time: 4 hours
Buyin: $300
Stakes: 2/5NL
Cashout: $1180
Profit: $+880

Sup Gang,
Just got back from the casino. Pretty lame session. Not much was going on and everyone was really nitty. Decided to just loosen up and iso a ton and had some mixed results. It was nice though because it was less variance and was just smooth sailing for the majority of the session.
Session 3 Recap-
Time: 2.5 hours
Buyin: $300
Stakes: 2/5NL
Cashout: $513
Profit: $+213

Sup Gang,
It's been a long time since my last post. I took a bunch of time off to do all sorts of ill shit. I had my birthday at the end of July, a bunch of birthdays in August and I went on a cruise not too long ago with my girlfriend around the Caribbean. Going on that downswing really deterred me from playing more poker but on the cruise ship I got a chance to play some poker and realized that I am probably better than 90% of the population. I just have to get in my hours like I did when I played online and I know at the end of it I will be in the green. Playing live sometimes I take losing a few hundred bucks a little too seriously and feel like I need to win it back before the end of the session. I just have to remember that the fish will always be there tomorrow and today might not be my day.
I played two sessions the past couple days and I have to say I'm happy with how I am playing but the results aren't quite there. I am hoping to get in like 20 hours a week minimum and reevaluate my situation at the end of the month. Pretty much I am running pretty shitty but I managed to not lose too much money.
Session 1 & 2 Recap-
Time: 6 hours
Buyin: $1000
Stakes: 2/5NL
Cashout: $839
Profit: $-161
It just seemed that things weren't going my way. Top set in 3b pot and losing. Bricking my draws. I feel like I need to just play a lower variance style and just value bet my way to profit. It felt good to get back to the tables and I hope the next time I blog, I'll have some good things to talk about.
Cheers,
