Things are still going good I had another big hand and my biggest loser was only ten dollars on a failed bluff.

Here is my big hand.

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $ BB (10 handed)

saw flop|saw showdown

CO ($237.97)
Button ($46.25)
SB ($94.75)
BB ($46.05)
UTG ($49.50)
UTG+1 ($49.50)
Hero ($46.45)
MP1 ($67.48)
MP2 ($39.20)
MP3 ($43.40)

Preflop: Hero is UTG+2 with [Qs], [Ks]. SB posts a blind of $0.25.
1 fold, UTG+1 calls $0.50, Hero raises to $2, 3 folds, CO calls $2, 2 folds, BB calls $1.50, UTG+1 calls $1.50.

Flop: ($8.25) [Kd], [Td], [Kc] (4 players)
BB checks, UTG+1 checks, Hero bets $6, CO calls $6, BB folds, UTG+1 calls $6.

Turn: ($26.25) [Qd] (3 players)
UTG+1 checks, Hero checks, CO bets $15, UTG+1 calls $15, Hero calls $38.45 (All-In), CO calls $23.45, UTG+1 folds.

River: ($118.15) [8h] (2 players, 1 all-in)

Final Pot: $118.15

Results in white below:
Hero has Qs Ks (full house, kings full of queens).
CO has Ad 3d (flush, ace high).
Outcome: Hero wins $118.15.


I don't know why I didn't just call the turn bet. I am sure I could have gotten the rest of the other guys stack on the river if I had. I guess that I thought he was too pot committed. I was also 99% sure that the original bettor had the flush. I get too excited when I have a hand like that occasionally and I throw away a few more dollars that should be mine. That is something I will have to work on.

Im going to start a session as soon as I am done writing this. I hope to get in at least two hours. If anyone feels like donating some money to me I will be playing 50nl at Coral under hicks53081.

I went to the bar. The bar was fun. I am happy. My girlfriend is sick. She is in the bathroom. She thinks she is in the bedroom. She keeps asking me for a bag. I want to play poker. Should I help the girlfriend or play poker? I'm still not sure what to do. The girlfriend just puked. I am on the poker side. She is saying, "I just want a bag so I can go to sleep. I'm gonna puke." Here is my dillema, she is already pukeing and wants a bag so she can go to sleep... but will she go to sleep. Probably not since she already has a bag and is not sleeping. I should be a better boyfriend and help her out, but we can't all be perfect. Maybe when she is not sick I will take her to Red Flags(or any other place a girl might like to go). Most likely not though, that is a long drive and I don't want to waste my poker money on her. Like I said, we can't all be perfect. I am still looking for some poker tonight. I plan on losing at least $100 before I go to sleep.

I just found a great 2/4 game. I plan on being there for at least half an hour. Then, and only then, will I even think about helping my girlfrined. Im not as bad as I sound, Im just drunk.

That KQ hand..I think the all-in on the turn was correct.

If you check the river to the CO, he might check behind. If you had position, I would agree with just calling the turn.

I had another good day. At 11 P.M. last night I was trying to get signed up for my nightly tourney on Empire, but for some reason all of the tourneys were down. I looked around from site to site and I found a 20+2 on Royal Card Club and signed up. There were 122 enterants, and it was a rebuy and add on. I used one rebuy when I got two pair cracked by a str8. I got sixth place again, that seems to be my final stop in MTTs latley, and made a little over three hundered dollars. I used to think that the Empire game was bad but this was just laughable. Peoples hand selections don't seem to be all that bad once you clear the first two-thirds of the field, but the post flop play is atrocious. I just wish I had PT running so I could have had a better idea of when to make a move. When I did make my move I was in with the best of it but my hand failed.

My goals for today are to figure out how to get PT working with the Prima sites and to clear a $20 Party bonus that will expire tonight.

I just got done looking at my neteller account and I have decided that I need to quit pulling money out. I could easily be playing in the 200nl games if I had never pulled out a dime, probably higher because if I could maintain a reasonable winrate at the 200nl my BR would support even bigger games. Well, its off to get a part time job for me. Maybe. But, if I do get a part time job I will not quit untill my BR exceeds 20K. Ive got a ways to go.

I know what you mean stealth. If I had a job that could pay my bills, my bankroll would be doing extremely well right now. I like your plan of not quitting till you have 20k. It may happen sooner then you think. :)

Today was okay. I was up to $70 on the day then I started focusing on breaking a maniac. His vpip was 78% and he was taking down pots left and right with crazy aggression, and he took about $40 off of me. If this guy saw any weakness he would pounce. I realized he was tilting me so I took an hour break and came back. When I got back MVP sat at a table with me for a bit and there were two crazys. Both of them were over betting pots like madmen. One of them lost all but $17 on a hand then gave the rest to me on the next hand.

Here is my biggest loser of the day. It was against the first nut I was talking about. My first encounter with him I raised the pot preflop, made a continuation bet with a missed AK, checked the turn, and he bet pot on river and I folded. On this hand I just wanted to see if I could bully him off of it.

Tonight I have been drinking, and well, because thats what I do. I cashed out $60 to take my woman to a movie. I also let my buddy play some $10nl. He lost a little, but who gives a shit? I did pretty damn good at the NL tables tonight considering I took some BAD BEATS at the beginning of my session, and some fucker disconnected on me when I made a flush against his two pair. $37 lost on that bitches dissconnect. I played in my drinking game and busted out early. Im up and that's all that matters.

Here are the daily totals.

Time played- 3.87 hours

PTBB/100- 18.31

Cash game daily profit- $109.85

Tourney daily profit- (-$22.00)

BR- $2501.74

And that's all I've got
