Murdering some Omaha tables......

So i pretty much felt like shit all day due to the past couple nights of drinking and decided that i was going to stay in for the night. Its a really strange feeling not going out/drinking on a Saturday night but i just don't think i could do 3 nights in a row, old age is setting in. Since i decided pretty early in the day that i was just going to stay in for the night i decided that i could get a lot of poker in. I started playing some no limit on Full tilt where i got absolutely murdered today and played some 5/10 on bodog with some alright results. I probably only played on these 2 sites for about an hour but ran into some pretty big set ups on full tilt and lost a good amount in a short time. I got my aces sucked out on the river for about a 1k pot and about 10 minutes later I pick up 33 in late position and decide to call the preflop raise. 3 of us go to the flop which is 632 and the guy in the sb bets out, the original raiser re raises to like 150, i decide to slow play and just call. Now the original better from the sb pushes all in for like 400 and the preflop raiser thinks for like 10 seconds and he pushes all in for like 1k. I hadn't played with him that much and had him on a over pair so i call only to see him turn over 66 for a set of sixes and the sb turn over 22 meaning we all flopped sets haha. I didn't catch the last 3 but a 2 did come on the river giving the guy quads against our sets haha. So after that debacle on Ft i decided that i just wasn't really in the mood to play no limit. I decided to play some pot limit Omaha and all i have to say is that i absolutely murdered the Omaha games i was in. I was playing 2 six handed tables of 3/6 on stars and a 3/6 table on full tilt. I pretty much ended up breaking about even in the full tilt game but destroyed the stars games. Today was definitely a huge confidence boost for me in terms of my Omaha game. I really felt like i was playing great and was really just running over the tables. Since i am going to sleep pretty early tonight (before 6 am) i plan on playing in at least a couple of the big Sunday tournaments tomorrow. Anyways this post is starting to get pretty long and I'm getting tired so check back to see how tomorrows tournaments went and I'm out.

Daily total- 2,252.52 ( 1,502.54 FT) ( 349.22 Bodog) - from no limit. ( 3,405.84 Stars) all from Omaha

Goal/bodog bankroll total- 5,362.64

Over due post....

Well i was going to wait until tomorrow to make a post but I'm still on Vegas time so its almost 5 a.m. here and i am wide awake. I still have to post part 2 of my trip to Vegas report but i don't have the pictures on my computer yet, hopefully i will get them by this weekend and put them up. As for the past few days i have been playing a lot of poker and have been able to put up some really good results. I have been playing primarily on stars the past few days but today i was playing tables on all 3 sites at once. On pokerstars i have just been playing/running pretty good over the past few days and i think it is due to game selection. There seems to be peak hours where the 5/10 games are just insanely difficult so i have really been trying to stay clear of those times and it seems to be working. Also I've been playing some 3/6, 5/10 pot limit omaha on stars the past few days and have really had some good results winning a little over 1k. I think this is really good because I've only been playing 1 plo table at a time, I've only played for a few hours, and I've never really read anything about plo I'm kind of self taught. As for full tilt i just realized today that I've only played there like 5 times in the past month so I'm going to try and get back in the swing of things on that site. I played 1 table of 5/10nl (was playing 1 FT,1 bodog, and 2 stars tables) on there and the table was playing pretty soft and i was able to win about 600 in a few hours. I really hate full tilts software compared to stars but the games are generally a lot softer so I'm going to start playing there more frequently. Last but not least is my play on Bodog. I played some more 5/10 on there and i have to say that of all 3 sites the 5/10 game on bodog is super soft. You just have players making bad plays, completely over playing weak hands, and as long as i don't get sucked out on i feel i can keep killing this game. After today in terms of the goal i am getting up to the point where i should move up to 10/20 but with the 5/10 being so profitable and weak i don't know if I'm going to bother moving up. I paid 20 dollars for this program to show hands from bodog to you guys but i cant get the stupid thing to work and i think I'm at the point of saying fuck it. I'm getting sick of emailing these retards every day about their shitty software that wont work but I'm waiting to hear back from them so hopefully this time it will work. Look at the stress i put myself through to deliver the goods to you the viewer haha. Anyways this is starting to get pretty lengthy so here are some hands from the past few days, check back for part 2 of the Vegas trip and I'm out.

I don't feel like explaining any of these.

http://www.pokerhand.org/?1127807 - i will comment on this hand because just by viewing it, it looks like i played this horribly. When in fact i wouldnt change anything about the way i played it based on the info i have on this guy. I just made a bad read and got a little unlucky. I really put him on a hand like qq/kk so when i check the turn i want him thinking i just raised with a hand like ak and missed so i plan to check raise the turn. When he checks behind me on the turn i still have him on like qq/kk so i bet out a tiny 150 to make him think im making a defensive bet with like 99/1010 when in reality im praying he reraises me. He hit the time button and thought forever before finally reraising me and i thought 100% i had the best hand so i insta re shoved. Obviously i was wrong in this situation but i really feel i played this well and its a profitable line to take it just didnt work out this time and it was a bad read.

Daily total- 2,692.18 ( 593.54 FT) (1253.94 Bodog) ( 844.70 Stars)won 2800 on stars yesterday too.

Goal total/Bodog bankroll- 5,067.77
