Be glad your opponents refuse to fold; if they didn't, you just might go broke.

Poker is silly.
It is not enough to be good at chess, you must also play well.

Put in a small session at 5/10 LHE and made like 60, i was up a lot more but on the last hand my AKs vs 99 vs QQ, they both flopped sets and i had my A so i lost a little there.
I'm playing some 5/10 lo8 now but i'm gonna end soon and stop for the day, going to a home game tonight and i'll be including profits/losses in that in my bankroll from now on.

Down 48 at lo8, this hand truelly sucked:
There was another where i flopped middle set + 2nd nut low draw + backdoor nut flush draw and bet the whole way, someone with the nut low draw hit a runner-runner straight to scoop.

+500 in a 2 hour session at the nl200 tables @ tribeca.. Ahh it's good to be winning again
I also played some plo/plo8 and 7cs @ Party and made about $100 clearing $30 in bonus.
That's about $1300 total for the day, including blackjack.. Life is good again! I'm just about to go through PT and post a few hands from that last session..

If you hit hands, they WILL pay you off at tribeca
My PT stats after 3.5k hands at NL200 6max are: 23/6
Wtsd is 23% and w$sd is 56%, so i think they're right where they need to be. W$WSF is 34% which I think is about normal too? Aggression by streets is 4.85/4.14/1.61, perhaps i'm a bit too aggressive early on and i'm not betting the river as much as I should be, but i don't think any of those are too out of whack either. I'll post a proper screenshot and all when I hit 10k hands, but i think i'll easily be able to beat these games. If it weren't for the $400 i tilted off yesterday my winrate would be looking healthy, but right now i'm sitting at 1ptbb/100.

Can you please explain your reasoning in the 99 and 57 hands??? Check/calling the flop in the 99 hand seemed weird, and calling allin w/ 2nd pair when he raised PF also seems kinda loose...

99 hand the villian was an overaggressive donk and i knew he'd bet if i checked, i also felt my hand as most likely best.
57 hand i was really looking to just make a stand, villian had been betting flop and turn when checked to almost every time against everyone, i check-called the flop with the intention of check-raising any turn but picked up one sweet card which gave me like 17 outs, i figured my fold equity was HUGE and even if he called i had a lot of cards i could hit.
