It's been too long.

Anyway, after some thoughts about the new Stars promotion, I *may* be returning to another SNE chase. I've already confirmed going to WSOP for the Main Event (I plan on winning and everyone seeing me on TV a bunch, just letting you all know ahead of time), so the extra 100k VPPs may be just enough to get me over the hump.

At the tail end of this session tonight, I played a hand that most people would just say "whatever, cooler" and move on. But for me, and the situation and the player, I did the worst thing possible, knew what he had, and called anyway. When assigning ranges it's paramount not to have too narrow of a range or you'll probably end up folding every hand or every time you get raised postflop. But if a player has a super narrow range, even if you have a good hand, even a really great close-to-the-nuts hand, you have to go with what's right.

Needless to say I'm disappointed in myself, even though I lost a stack that many people would have written off, I find myself still thinking hard about it. But even though most people would have said that I played it fine, I'm not trying to be like everyone else. I'm trying to be head and shoulders above. I will prevail.
