Play poker, think poker, write poker

Today I played my monthly tournament session and once again I reminded myself why I moved away from tournaments.

4 tournaments:

-pushed KQ from CO for 10bb,got called by AT that is good;

-pushed ATs from MP+1 with 11bb,got called by QQ and AK;

-A9 beat my AJ on A63 flop,when we had half pot bet left on the 9 turn;

- and in my PLO tourny, I pushed with the nut str8 on flop with like 15bb and got called by same hand+redraw

And I actually played well!!!!

On the positive note, while the last touney was going I pulled some plo tables and made the tourney buyins from a bluffy player, but still…

Yesterday I played against a very nice guy, who just couldn’t fold suited cards.

This ended up well for me.

However, later I got slaughtered during my shot at PLO100 AGAIN.

In other news, PT3 finally released Everest support and most probably I am going to try the games there.

April was tough!

I finally understood and accepted that I cannot play more than 6 tables of 200NL or higher, I lose focus and I make light calls in situations where it is obvious that I am beat. Hence my May resolution is that I will play 4 tables all the time with occational 5tabling while I am selecting tables.

I finished this month good but mostly due to two good sessions of 2/4 which basically contributed for half the winnings of this month. Not a great result

On the positive note this month was the first month ever that I finished in the green while playing PLO. I tried a 30/20 style and was running quite good.

My goals for this month are to book 30k hands of NLHE and 10k of PLO. Lets see how this goes…

First big pot for the month….
