One Good Hour

So today I drove home to NY for spring break. I hung around with my mom and dad and played guitar hero and drove to Jersey with a friend. I didn't think I was going to end up playing any poker today but I decided to put in an hour 3 tabling on my laptop (ultra shitty overlap.) Boy was that a good idea. Not only is it a weekend, but it's st. Patty's day too. And it really payed off. Here are some hands, but no pokertracker stats cause macs suck for poker.

http://www.pokerhand.org/?914808 The session started with me fucking up, but then losing less than max. I complete in the sb with 89o which isn't horrible I GUESS, but then I decide to call the raise OOP. I mean, I guess he has a deep stack but wtf Jamie. So I flop huge and check raise and he puts in a 3 bet just ASKING for a call. I oblige and then check call the turn. Good thing I'm super horrible, and my OP blows worse. BTW I didn't get stacked cause my D game still pwns this guy. (No more L33T talk I swear.....)

http://www.pokerhand.org/?914815 Tough hand with aces here. My opps range is pretty wide preflop. He basically wont fold any two face cards, but I'm not ready to double him up here. I can find a better spot.

http://www.pokerhand.org/?914819 I told you I could find a better spot. SHIP IT.

http://www.pokerhand.org/?914822 Here is a huge pot. Enough with the utg min raise with big pairs then insta calling. He called so fast preflop I had to give him credit for a big hand. So I lead out huge with top set and get paid. BAAAAALLLLIIIIIN!

There was one other hand that got lost cause I don't have pokertracker on here. Guy raises MP I reraise on button with AA and he insta calls. Flop is KQT rainbow and he check raises my $30 to $92. I folded. My thoughts with the 2 ace folds was that in order to get check raised, my OPP has to have a big hand. And if I put my OPP on a range of big hands, AK is really the worst big hand he can have there. So assuming he is going with the hand I'm not getting a good price with AA there. Poker is hard.

Today's Net +$618
Total Goal Left $19,127

hey, good luck on your goal. i'm still working my way up to 1/2. right now i do two tables of .5/1.00 so i guess that's equal to one table of 1/2.

i'll keep on eye on you.
