For those of you who have been waiting for that big bust out session that bunky is due for.....




You gotta keep waiting. /images/graemlins/blush.gif

Tonight, I had a well played session. I had some more ugly beats in some good pots. I decide to mark down how many times I got 3 outered or better by the fish. It was 9 times.
Kinda hard to come back from that but thats exactly what I did.

I was down $140.00 early on when AA got outflopped by a shortish stack with 77. Sets Suck BTW.

I'll post some hands tomorrow in SSPLNL for some review when i pull them out of PT. But, I did play over 1100 hands Woo HOO!

Finished up a whopping $$24.00 or so. Much better than a loss. But Running flat isn't nearly as frustrating as running bad!

I felt good during this session and I keep thinking what ML4L says, I have to win eventually. SO I focus on playing the best poker I know how, and things keep working out. Not being conceited or anything, a NL player with lesser skills drops a 500-1000 in these lastt 7 days, I am fortunate and proud to be up $60.18. Sounds sad when you see other challenge results, but I am actually proud of my accomplishments so far. Just being in the black after some of the things Ive gotten thrown at me is nothing short of astounding.

Anywho, I think I made progress with the bad beat syndrome getting to me. They never got to me tonight, I was in a good frame of mind and just kept plugging away.

Anywho heres the numbers.

Totals to date:
Hands played: 4607

Profit (loss) $60.18

VP$IP 18.30

Since I know nothing about NL...here are more of Evan's stats from his last 10K hands to make Bunky feel better (these are from limit but whatever).

Win rate for
AA: 2.06 bb/hand
AKo: <font color="red"> (0.24)</font> bb/hand...do not adjust your monitor, that's actually red

Those are two pretty hideous numbers right there, so don't feel like you're the only one the poker gods are spiting.

Also, I know what you mean about being proud of a $60 profit, sometimes breaking even when you shoulda lost a bunch is more satisfying than just running hot and raking it in, even if the latter is more fun.

I played 1200 hands and lost $900, so I guess today you kicked my ass.../images/graemlins/smile.gif

But, on the other hand, I am owning you on hands. I've got 10,162 for the month.

When you're five foot nothing, a hundo and nothing, you need to count how many coronas you pound down. Seems like I play better between 2 and 4. /images/graemlins/blush.gif

Hey, I have terribly important stuff to do, you know. I see movies, read books, and go to the gym. That's a pretty hectic schedule...

He's not kidding. Just this morning he spent a good 20 minutes IMing me clever quotes from both the Times and various websites. How about a round of applause for scrub?

Also, to Bunky, are you playing at Party? I know you answered this at one point but I can't remember and I'm curious.

No, Playing Prima. I think I'm going to be focusing on some 5-10 6 max on Party after the first of the year. Along with my NL game. I wanna try to balance my playing schedule between limit and NL.
