Another day essentially broke even, down 1/4 BI.

Old lessons have been reinforced for the last few days. I fold a helluva hand and have to remind myself I cannot lose what I don't put in the pot....

My initial few sessions aren't bad. I need to play more hands. 500/day isn't cutting it. I am on vacation until the 4th I think so hopefully I can make a nice run next week.

It's difficult...

After a long break from online poker (not so much from live) I have decided to give it another round. My first operation was quite the learning experience. Numerous mistakes and adjustments led to...

Making some adjustments. Finished up about 1/8 Bi or so today. Not great by any means but definately a turn around from my 3 BI cooler. I read some of illfavor's OP and took the time to look at my...

I play on AP and can't seem to get the hud running on cash games. If I play a sng or mtt it comes up and works as intended, but with cash games it does not. I believe everything is configured...

This.

Do I not call the turn there?

Pre flop he is a 3-2 dog, after the flop, I am the 3-2 dog. After the turn I have like 80% equity versus his hand. Do I check the river bet? If I check and he pushes...

4th session since my last post. Finished down 3 buy ins and decided to stop the bleeding. Last 3 sessions were good, each one finished up about 1.5-2 buy ins when I finished.

This session I was...

Broke even today (basically even +$.25 or so). Was card dead, and couldn't put in the time for enough hands to work out of it. Only put in 300 hands or so.

Can't really complain, my losses were...

Finished up $7.36 today.

It was an interesting day, I saw a few bad beats. I had Kings full of sixes and lost to quad Kings. Had an A high flush and lost to a boat. Those were the worst two. No...

Finished up over 3 max BIs ($13.58) over 629 hands today. Was as high as $18.60 at one point. Very productive session obviously. Second best session I have had.

My stats ran about the same today...

This is a fantastic post. This post, and the posts/articles linked herein are dead on. I have found my study material for the next week. Many of the points listed I have learned the hard way. Many of...

2nd hand villain called with trip 8s.

3rd hand villain made his flush on the river. WTF I was even doing in that hand is beyond me. KTs isn't even in my normal playing range. Prime example of...

Here are some examples of the hands that I played with ignorance:

Finished down a BI today.

I probably would have finished up a BI but I made a few ridiculous plays and was spewing hard. Either way, I feel it was a horrid session and I only dropped 1 BI, I...

Played another session before I leave for Louisiana. Still not sure if I will be staying in a hotel there or driving back and forth, job site is about an hour away.

Finished up $4.34

Session...

Finished down 1 BI today.

No big deal. I took down my fair share of pots and stayed focused, I was just card dead, unfortunately, the other guys weren't. Saw a couple bad beats today. Flopped a...

The stuff I read on playing TPTK and TPGK suggest 60% of the pot as a minimum. Since then, most people I have talked to suggest 67% as a minimum, Jyms seems to suggest 85-90% as a minimum.

Your...

Good luck man, one day I hope to join you:) /watching this thread

After a recent downswing in the micros I spent some time looking for leaks. One of these I believe is how I play KQo, KJo, and QJo.

When I first decided on my playing range I went with the...

Finished up $6.75.

It was a good day, not a single big loss, laid down a couple hands that I thought just were not the best and I feel good about it. Staying focused and protecting my stack is...

Finished up 2 bucks tonight. Dropped like my third hand. Had KK, villain called my 5bb raise with 59s. Called my CBs and hit his flush and pushed on the river. At that point I had put too much into...

Wonderful! I put this on a post-it above my monitor.

Finished up about 3 bucks today. Not spectacular but it sure beats dropping 20% of my BR daily.

I watched about 4 hours of Jym's videos and picked up alot I think. I really drove home the fact I...
