Not getting better

Fulltilt sucked as usual today. I got way way above average starting hands and got no action. I grinded myself a decent win over the 3 hours, but I got overpair vs baby set and KK vs TT and Axs and lost that. So, another even session.

The good news is that I think I'm starting to adjust a little better preflop. I'm making some more crucial 3 bets that are allowing me to take the pot down both preflop, and on the flop more easily. Hopefully things pick up in the next couple days, I'm starting to get really frustrated with my results.

Hands.

http://www.pokerhand.org/?964814 My suckout of the day.

http://www.pokerhand.org/?964818 Ultra ugly hand. I just couldn't get anyone to fold today.

http://www.pokerhand.org/?964823 This guy was so full of shit the whole session. It's a good thing I had the monstrous 22 to make the gangster call down.

http://www.pokerhand.org/?964825 I just don't get full tilt. I guess I should be happy he didn't shove with the nuts.

http://www.pokerhand.org/?964830 I need to stop giving everyone so much credit preflop and continue to adjust like this. Pots like these were as big as they got for me today.

http://www.pokerhand.org/?964831 It was like pulling teeth getting any money out of anyone today.

Add in AK vs KK and JJ vs 66 on 762 and that was my day. O well. Even is better than a big fat loss. But my hole cards were incredible.

ownage. get that rent money baby. you're gonna be golfing three times a week in vegas in no time, and gigging weekends with me in L.A.. (I realize i'm posting this positive comment on a blog entitled "not getting better" but i'm referring to your month as a whole.)
anyway I like your blog, it flows like a good story. one whose ending is not obvious to the reader as well as the writer, although i've been telling you how it will end for two years. hope I'm right.
I will add your blog to my list of stories to read. (you should add Norwegian wood to yours.)

p.s. me you and jake need to step it up quickly in F BB. this is embarrassing.

Thanks man! Yeah, this fantasy baseball thing better not get out of hand. At least you are the commish and can cheat like all hell if it goes really sour.

We'll chat later about your trip. Give me a call.
