Wednesday July 12.

LOts of hands today and lots of bad beats. I played for about 5 hours in four tables and lost $115. Cleared the remaining $30 of the party bonus and about $15 in Full tilt poker.

Hand 1.

I am dealt KK in the CO. I raise to $3. UTG and LP had limped and they both called my raise. LP is one of the worse maniacs I have seen in a while. I want to play a hand against him.


FLOP. $9. 3 - 8 - T. Two clubs. UTG and LP check and I bet $7. UTG folds and wacko raises to $18. He has a full stack and I cover. Since he is so bad, my big over is all I need against him. I pushed. He called with J8 and turned the J. I didnt improve.



HAND 2.

I am dealt Q8 in the BB. Two limpers in LP. I check.

FLOP. $1.5. Q - 5 - 8. Two hearts. I check and dont know why. LP1 checks and LP2 bets $2. I raise to $6. LP1 folds and LP2 calls.

TURN $14. 2s. I lead with $14. He calls.

RIVER. $42. 3h. DAMN HEART! I check. Villain bets $10 and I call. Villain shows 55 for the flopped set.


HAND 3.

I have a full stack and villain covers. I am dealt A9d in the CO. I limp after two limpers in EP.

FLOP.$2. 7d - 7s - 3d. Checked to me and I bet $2. One caller UTG.

Turn. $6. Kd. He checks and I bet $5. He calls.

River. $16. 6s .He checks and i BET $12. hE RAISES ro $40. Hero???


Hand 4.

I wont npost this damn hand. I lost a stack calling an all in with TPTK when somebody flopped quads and called me all the way to the river and then pushed.

-$46 in stupidity loss.

There are a couple more two pair hands that went bad but I cant remember now.

Totals.
Hands: 900 (estimated-5 hours/4tables).
Amount won: -$115
Bonus cleared: $45.
Bad beats: -$50.
Stupidity: -$46.

MOnday July 17th.

I played for another 500 hands and lost 80. I didnt get anything better than TPTK. I tried to bluff someone when the board had JJ8 when I had 99 and he called huge bets with his AA. Lost a stack there. I didnt get AA or KK. I got QQ twice and in one of them doubled up when I had about $22 left on the table.

I need to move down to NL$25 because I only have about $400 left to play. This is tough.

Tuesday.

I will just say that I won $17 bucks today after being down more than three full stacks. I played for more than 4 hours and my estimates are 1500+ hands. I flopped several sets, including two that cost me two full stacks and about three more I lose almost have stacks. I ended up today because of at least four huge hands where I doubled or tripled up. I have to say that even with not the greatest results, I am loving this strategy because it seems that it will help me stop the crazy variance that has been making me crazy.

That is the main reason why i tried this in the first place. I realized that I was losing a lot of money with marginal hands that became two pair or trips on the flop or after, just to be sucked out on. I thought it was going to be more boring but it is not. I have to admit i AM NOT PLAYING ONLY PAIRS, I added AK-AJ mostly from any position, but I am not playing back at at with them, which is the right thing to do and I find it to be easier since I have to pay attention to my other 2376347862783 tables .

I also cleared more than $20 in bonus.

Bad Beats: -$80.

Hands: 1500
Amount Won: $17.
Bonus: $21.

Friday July 21st.

I didnt play yesterday but did play on thursday but I just cant remember how I did. My memory sucks.
I do remember I won, wich is good; but it wsnt a great session.

Today I decided to hit Empire because they gave me $15 bucks and i Had to play 150 raked hands to clear. I started five tables there and three in Hollywood Poker. I played for a little bit more than two hours and made $135 on the tables and $10 in bonus from HP and $15 in EP. VERY NICE.
That was very early in the morning and the games were really good specially in EP, with only 29K players online.

I had to come back for the friday night session which is incredibly juicy everywhere a everyone knows. I cleared a lot in bonus ($37), but lost $55. OH MAN!. This is just crazy:

FLOP. $2. A J T. There are two spades. I lead with two. EP minraises to 4. He has 29. I cover. folded to my and i reraise to $18.

Turn. $38. 7. No spade. Good card for me. I lead with his remaining $11. He instacall and i put him on the set because it was kinda hard to think about the FD.

RIVER. and he has ,[9s]

Hand 2.

I am dealt AKs in the BB again. Three limpers. I CHECK

FLOP.$2. 3s. 4s. Js. I lead the flop with $1.5. One caller in LP.

Bad beats> lots of $$$$$$$$.
Hands: 2000.
Amount Won: $87.

I forgot this one which was really great and only happened a few minutes before the A high flush versus Str8 flush hand.

I am dealt TT in LP and limp after one limper. Button limps an d BB checks.

FLOP. $2. 9 - T - 4. Rainbow. EP and I check, button bets $2. EP calls and I raise to $6. Button calls and EP folds.

Turn. $14. 3s. I lead with $12 and he mimraises, at this point I am sure about a smaller set and pushed. He calls $40 all in and has T9s. The river is a .

This pocket pair strategyis a solid winner because I ended that session at almost 5ptbb/100 and I got screwed really hard.

If I keep my expenses small as I have done lately, the BR should grow really fast again. I have a plan to clear more than 1200/month of bonuses. at, 10-12/hr it looks achievable.

Saturday July 22nd.

I lost $180 today in about 1100 hands. I lost all the big all ins with huge hands in the most unbelieveable bbeats.

Everytime i got action after flopping a set, they manage to hit their two or 8 outer to beat me. I played quite well as I made a coouplelay downs after i was obviously beat. Just like this one.

I am dealt 72 in the BB. Three limpers and I check.

FLOP. $2. A. 7. 2. Two diamonds. I check. Ep bets $2. LP calls and I raise to $8. EP calls and LP folds.

TURN.$20. 7. I lead with $18. He thinks for a while and calls.

River. $56. A. PHUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK! I have only $23 more. He covers me. I check. He bets $23 and I folded.

I really believe I am not winning this hand 1/3 of the times and thsat is what I need for it tobe break even. He has and A here at least 90% of the times.

The other hands were basically like this:

i am dealt 88 in EP. limp and so do four more.

FLOP. $4. 8. 6. 5. two clubs. I am first to act nd I check. The player next to me bets 2.5. Everybody calls and I raise to $9. Folded to the button who pushes his remaining $15. I call and he flips 77. Of course the turn is a six and he doubles up.



Hand 2.

I am dealt 44 in the button. UTG raises to 2. CO and I called.

FLOP. K. 4. 7. Rainbow. UTG leads $3. CO calls and i RAISE TO 10. utg FOLDS AND co CALLS.

TURN. $30. J. CO bets 10 and I raise all in to $29. He covers me and insta calls. He has JJ.


I have 55 in MP. EP raises to $3. He has $70. three callers to me and I call in the CO. Button calls.

FLOP. $15. 5. 2. 4. EP bets $4. I raise to $14. button min raises to $28. veryone folded to me and I pushed $35. He calls with A3 and I dont improve.

There are more but I just dont want to keep going through this.


I lost $170 in about 1K hands played. All the hands I was stacked I flopped a set and lost to a bigger one and the previous hands.

I must have done something really bad because this bad luck is just unbelieveable. I was only stacked with sets. I lost a lot of pushes from small stacks. This hand happened as I was closing my tables and typing this:

I am dealt KK UTG and Raise to 3.5. UTG+1 calls and folded to the co who raises to $10. He has $17 more so I put him in. He calls with KJh and rivers the nut flush when the Ah hit the river. LOL.

I had heard of crazy beats in OnGame but this is insane.

I will play more later tonight. It's saturday...and this has to change someday.

Hands: 1100
Amount won: -$181.
Bonus: $34.
Bad Beats: MOre than 200 again!

Saturday still...late.

I came for the night session as I said. I played 3.5 hours and made $160 . With bonus, I ended the day up $50, but on the tables I am down $20.

Even with all the beats I am showing small profits. I am really interested in playing at least 100K hands to see my numbers. I know they will be very good because the main leak players on this strategy have is overplaying big pairs. Something I very rarely do but did in this last session. I have QQ im MP and raise to 2.5. Got two callers. the board was J high and I checked raise a $3 bet to $13, he then min raise me to $23. I flat called and then push my remaining $20 on turn. He obviously had a set...of jacks. That is why i am putting the last $10+$20 in stupidity losses column.

Besides that, the session went incredibly well. I made a couple good plays based on reads. I went really deep twice with TPTK because I made notes on both players aying those players are really weak and TPTK was a monster against them. I also had a couple sets paid off. Hit a str8 vs. a smaller str8 but the guy went passive and i couldnt stack him. He said he was running so bad he knew I had the nuts. I felt sorry for him because I know the feeling.

Hands: 3.5 hours, 6-8tabling.
Amount Won: $163.
Bonus: $47.
