Had a session where I was running hot for a change, unfortunately right at the end I lost a stack, half to bad play and the rest to a coinflip, then tilted off another stack, so only ended up 2 buyins, +$400.

Today I played around 4 hours of poker, mostly 3 tabling NL400. Included in that time was another 1 hour coaching session from GodlikeRoy. The tables were full of straight foward donks and ABC regulars, so I didn't really get into any tough situations.

Ended up making around $1000 over the entire duration, including losing $400 in a flush over flush situation right at the start.

I am now suitably rolled for NL400 and will be playing those tables unless they are all full of tough regulars, in which case a juicy NL200 table is far more appealing.

Looking forward to the 5th of the month, bring on my $900 rakeback!

NL400 on cake on weekends = easy money. Changes to my cbet choices and easing back on aggrssion is paying good $$$.

Hit some bad variance in a session last night, flopped a set out of the blinds vs an overpair and ended up losing to runner runner boat when his overpair filled up the board. Same villain I 3bet on 3 tables at the same time, he folded to AK and AQ, but min 4bet over my JJ on the third table, since he was clearly pissed off with me I shoved and lost vs his AKo, nice call sir.

On the plus side he is a badish regular who will now knows I will shove JJ preflop at times, should lead to some more action.

Played quite a bit of NL400 on cake over the weekend and ended up dropping x5 buyins total. Having hit my stop loss, its back to NL200 for a while for me.

I did hit a few cooler type hands, however in general I just didn't play well enough against the regulars, several apply serious amounts of pressure and table selection isn't generally available due to the low traffic on the site.

Played around 1.5 hours last night for one buyin profit at NL200, started off by losing $300 to a 3 outer on the river, followed by a 5 outer a few hands later, obv all in on the turn both hands. I actually stacked a guy with AA later on, which was nice for a change.

Cake now has heads up tables at NL200 and 400, I sat down with a couple of my favorite donks and quickly took their short stacks, delicious.

Then I had a 1 hour battle on an NL400 table vs a decent player with a full stack. I was down $250 at one point, before recovering to end up with $1100. It is amazing how much confidence seems to play a role when heads up, once I got the momentum on my side it was only a matter of time.

It's really quite amazing what you have achieved in such a short space of time, props to you, sir.

Played around 3 hours tonight, 2 on party where I slowly lost $300 or so 4 tabling NL200, I just didnt really hit any hands and there were a lot of aggressive donks who did.

Switched over to cake where the game selection sucked, however there was one juicy NL400 table so I sat down and proceeded to win my biggest pot so far.

My stack: $650 or so
UTG min raises, one caller, I 3bet pot size with KK, called in three places.

Flop 266, checked to me I fire 2/3 pot, one call from a very aggressive deep stack who covers me.

Turn 8, checked to me, I check to encourage a river bluff from aggro deep stack.

River K, bingo! Aggro stack leads for pot ($350), I posture and shove, he calls and shows 22, ship $1350 pot.

I would have been even better off, however I lost $350 of my stack a few hands earlier when my OESD + FD lost to a villain's 3 outer on the river, all in on turn obv.
