Poker is silly.
It is not enough to be good at chess, you must also play well.
Somewhere in the world someone is training when you are not. When you race him, he will win.

When I play a patient and relaxed game I win - that simple.

So I just fired up another session today and about 15 minutes in these 3 hands happen in a span of about 2 minutes:
I decided to just stop playing for a while and come back a bit later. I'm getting better at this, in the past I would've just continued to play for hours thinking I was playing fine, even though I wasn't.

Minutes | Hands | Winnings
98.5 |459| -$275.65
33.6 | 189 | -$350.70
28.2 | 258 | -$405.15
50.1 | 249 | -$80.45
147.7 | 867 | +$271.60
GOOD DAY.
Basically, nothing really went my way today. It happens. I was real happy with the way I stopped my sessions if they started off going down down down and taking a break for a while before coming back to the table.
Swongs imo:

At least in the 3rd hand villain played his hand bad enough that it cost you the minimum. Usually AA vs KK and a king hitting costs AA a full stack.

Poker is silly.
The first two happened back-to-back, then the third hand was 3 hands later.
He should stop playing AJo imo.
I haven't been playing a whole lot of hands lately, I've just been putting in like 1-2 hour sessions here and there playing 3-4 tables. I'm probably at like 30 hours for the week so far, but will double check later to make sure I hit my quota by Sunday.
The last couple of days have been mostly breakeven for me. Yesterday was a total fucking joke. There was one guy who was playing 93/35 or something. I lost a 4-outer to him, then a 4-outer to him, then a 2-outer to him, then a 2-outer to him. Within like an hour.Situations like I would have an overpair + flushdraw and he would have bottom pair with no flush draw and get there, or 44 > KK etc. Whatever.
I plan on grinding a tonne today.
Oh yeah I made a HU video with Virge. I'll find the links and post them up here in a few minutes.

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