Day 53 part 2

Stupidly i decided to play some poker after drinking all night but i did win some money so i guess that makes it ok???. Drunken 25/50 is never a good idea but the game looked so stupidly soft i had to join it and there was a retard there handing out money. Maybe i will play tomorrow but i just realized what time it is so who knows so check back tomorrow to see what i got going on.

Day 53/ a real session!

Today i finally played a session that lasted longer than 2 hours and played pretty well. I crawled out of bed around 1 and hopped right on the computer which i usually don't like to play right when i wake up but for some reason i was itchin to play. I played only 2 tables of 5/10nl on stars for about 5 hours and was really playing well/not running bad and i was able to put up some good numbers for only 2 tabling. Anyways i am in the process of getting drunk/ready for the night so i am going to wrap this up. I plan on playing tomorrow (depending on how i feel) so check back to see how that goes, here are some hands from today and I'm out.

http://www.pokerhand.org/?973841 - love taking money from this guy because all he does is bitch non-stop.
http://www.pokerhand.org/?973847 -me playing bad and not being able to fold aces.
http://www.pokerhand.org/?973852 - my aces hold up this time and i win my money back from the same guy.
http://www.pokerhand.org/?973856 - Here i know if i catch the right card against his big hand i can take down a huge pot. I check the river hoping he has like aa/kk and puts me on qq and tries to value bet but unfortunately he thought forever and finally just checked but i know if he has aa/kk here he wouldve bet and i wouldve pushed.
http://www.pokerhand.org/?973868 - normally i would raise the flop here but i thought the sb leading out like that might have 2 pair or soemthing and i didnt want to get reraised and have to fold my draw.
http://www.pokerhand.org/?973872 - its fun to actually see what its like to be on the winning side of a cooler.

Day 52/ half hour of play

Today i didn't really feel like playing at all so i only managed to play for about a half hour. I did get in a couple decent pots though during this short 1 table session so i was able to make a little bit of money. I plan on putting together a fairly lengthy session tomorrow so check back to see how that went and I'm out.

http://www.pokerhand.org/?968500 - I have rereraised this guy in this spot many times unfortunately he had a hand this time and i lose.
http://www.pokerhand.org/?968503 - here i pick up aces a few hands later and play it the exact same as the 57 and get paid.

day 51

Today i feel like i might have got myself back on track. I played for around 5 hours today and i feel like i was really on top of my game. I signed up for an account on cardrunners.com which is a instructional website for cash game players and is ran/taught by some of the best online players at the highest stakes. The reason i signed up was just to get a different thought process on certain hands/situations other than my own. The reason why i wanted this account was due to the fact that Ive realized that i was almost in like a robotic state lately when I've been playing. I would play 4-5 tables and just do the same thing on every table and not really think of other ways to play different hands in different spots. Also ive noticed in a lot of the higher stakes videos the players talk about really concentrating on just a few tables other than playing 4-5 and it made a huge difference today. I played only 2 5/10nl tables at a time today and i am really shocked at how much more into the games i felt rather than playing 5 tables. I was immediately able to pick up on who was strong at the table and who the weak players were to attack. For anyone that reads this blog that wants to become a good poker player i highly suggest signing up for an account on cardrunners. They have videos ranging from .25/.50nl up to 25/50nl so the videos are helpful for any type of player. Anyways this post is getting pretty long so check back tomorrow to see how i did and I'm out.

Another waste of time...

Today i made the mistake of playing in the big Sunday tournaments and didn't cash in either. I really got off to a good start in both tourneys but it seems like i really fall apart in the middle stages of tournaments. I am going to look into this and try to figure out what i am doing wrong once i build up a big stack. I busted out 1300th in the stars tourney which paid the top 1080 and i busted out like 650th or something in the Full tilt tourney which paid the top 370. I really think once i figure out what I'm doing wrong in the middle stages of these tourneys i could put up some good numbers. Anyways that sums up how my tourney day went and what a waste of time it was. As for the goal i am now on the 50th day/half way point and to tell you the truth I'm not really happy with the results so far. Yes, i am ahead of schedule which is good but i really feel like i could have this goal already over with by now. Over the past 20 days or so of this goal i have really been slacking off and i cant even remember the last time i played a session longer than like 2-3 hours. So over the next half of this goal i am really going to try to focus a lot more on my play and hopefully finish this thing up over the next couple weeks. With that being said i have to get up early tomorrow (noon) so i should get a good session in tomorrow. Check back tomorrow night to see how that went and I'm out.

Day 50 tourney sunday

Today i am playing in a few of the 215 buy in tournaments on stars and fulltilt. I dont really think i am going to play any cash games today but who knows we will have to see how i do in the tourneys. I am on the first 5 minute break of the stars tournament and have around the average stack size with about 5k people remaining. The full tilt tournament starts at 530 so i will be playing in that and i am really going to concentrate on cashing in both. Anyways thats just an update on todays play so check back later to see how i did today.
