update time, didnt realize how long it had been.

So I built my roll up to 450 playing 10NL and decided to take a shot at 25NL prematurely and it was a disaster. I played terribly, scared and stay too long. I actually ended up dropping all the way back down to 5NL and worked my way back up over the last couple of weeks. Don't do it kids, I told myself I wouldn't do shit like that this time and I went and did it anyway. Lesson learned.

So I finally turned things back around and am playing 10NL again with good results. I am not taking a full shot at 25Nl again until the roll is at least $750. I might mix in one or two tables once I hit $500 to ease my way into it, but we'll see how that goes.

Here are a couple of hands from today:


Hand 1: Villain is running unknown, but this is the only hand he raised in about 15 hands at the table with me. My thoughts on the river were simply that I wanted it to look like a blown flush draw with maybe middle pair. Any thoughts?

ackk, I cant find the second hand. I'll post it as soon as I do.


Anyway. Im in the middle of a session and BR is up to $430. I almost have another $50 bonus cleared, so that will be a nice boost.

anyway, things are going smooth for now. I'll dig up some hands where I had trouble and get 'em posted. I've messed around with some $5 Sit n gos, only played maybe 6 or so and cashed once. Got unlucky in a couple and just played crap/no cards in a couple others. I plan to play a couple of them a day for something different and because I enjoy them.

Oh, and after 16,000 hands at 10NL Im finally turning a profit again. It had been up and down for me at this lvl the first three tries. but I think I have a handle on it now.

BR: $430
