Wow what a long day. Only able to 4 table at cake and played over 1100 hands of 50 NL. Played pretty well but made a couple of mistakes and then after working my way up to close to even after staying at about one buy in down the whole time I get coolered with a set of 9's versus Q's in a multiway limped pot for some stackage. Well the good side of the shit is that I am only down a little over a buy ins after all is said and done.

Don't you just love those Cakers? I can't tell you how many times I've laid down a winner there because of the wild plays they make...and I love them for it. Cake is the only thing keeping me in the black the last couple of months.

I like it when they whine online. Live it annoys me more, unless I'm in a giggly mood, then I like to sing ,"Gots you chips, you chips are mine, mine, mine..."

Bitching players are the best though, they are the ones that you can midly verbally play with and get them to tilt further. Keeping them genuinely rattled = profit.

Nice recoup on the year! Keep up the good work.

Well played a little more one tabling the 100 NL 6 max. I am really starting to like these SH tables as there seems to always be at least one real donkey present. I made a little over a buy in 40-50 hands I suppose. Played one big hand aganist the table donk after I had doubled his short stack up ealier when he raised with K8o and reraise pretty big from the SB with 99. A few hands later I called the SB with J10o in a 4 way limped pot and flopped broadway and fired into the field and got called in two places, turn 4 and I potted it again and the donk comes alive and repots and I put him in. He shows A4o. A couple of hands later this hand goes down. I certainly didn't like the flop and against a better opponent I likely fold up shop here on the flop alot of the time the way the preflop action went but I decided to go with it to the river against the fool. He fails to call the last 5.00 or so into a 180+ pot.

Got back from the field trip fine. Fired up 4 tables of 50 NL at Cake and god dammit to hell had one of the most frustrating sessions that I can remember recently. Right off the bat get it all in on the turn with bottom set versus top two and he hits the four outer. Same table is a fucking moron that has 6 stacks and I get it all in versus him a couple of times having him crushed and he outdraws me and then I make a good old semi bluff that runs into a short stack that just caught his random two pair on the turn with the old K6o. How I only lost 80.00 I don't fucking know.

Had to shut the damn games down as one more suckout and my a/c might have suffered the same fate as Xaston's fan and it is too damn hot for that to happen.

Another day and another starting out with getting stacked with a fucking set. Called miniraise with 88, Flop J 9 8 and we get it all in and he has J 10 and hits the Q. Recovered nicely though for a small win thus far. Playing without PaHud and PT sure makes it a different ballgame. Also down to just one monitor so can only play 4 tables but been playing just 1 or 2 a lot of the time.

My one big drawout of the session. I floated the flop to see if he fired again and then picked up the straight draw on the turn. I figured if an A hits I am going to get paid pretty nicely as this guy had already gone all in with TPTK type hands on dangerous boards. Perhaps I should have pushed the river.
