vegas was pretty sick. shroomed both nights i was there ... friday night i tripped pretty hard. i was there for my friends end of bowling league tournament so they wanted to practice friday night, so i went bowling like this. the lane would get shorter and longer and the pins would shake. it was nuts. weird thing is when i took them saturday i didn't trip AT ALL ... but i had the afterglow for a long time. if you've done them you know what i mean, you just feel all philisophical and want to talk about everything.
didn't play much poker seeing as i was broke. idk if i said this in my last post but i pissed away my 1800 live roll so i had barley any money in vegas. i played some 2/4 LHE with 150, came up like 2.5 BB's (10 dolla holla) after playing for 5 hours or something stupid. then i decided to just sit a little short in NL, ran my stack up to 425ish then bluffed it off like a 'tard. i'm really going to work on not making big bluffs live and also generally just giving people credit unless i have seen them make a big bluff. here's my HH's from the 2 pots i won and then the 2 big bluffs in order.
this is 200nl btw.
1st hand at table i sit and get AJo UTG+1 (we're 7 handed). open for 10, HJ or CO call (covers). he was a young 20's kid too, super talkative and aggressive (i had been watching the game for a little) and thought he was the shit. liked to make moves. flop is HU -- something like 67Tr. i cbet 15, he calls quickly. i've got 125 behind at this point. turn pairs the board, i pretty sure the 7 and puts a FD out there. i think for a few seconds and check, he thinks and slowly bets 20. i take like 20-25 seconds and CRAI and he folds fairly quickly. in retrospect idk if this was the best move, but i really felt like it was a high % play and it worked out so whatever.
2nd hand at table get dealt AQo (UTG now if you can't follow that). folds to CO who is a nitty middle aged asian dude with 80-90 in front, he calls. BB calls as well, he had me covered. not much of a read on him besides he was probably the 3rd best beside me and this other grinder who was a local i think. that said, i find out later he's got major leaks. anyway, flop QJx two clubs, i cbet 25. CO calls and BB calls. turn blanks off. BB checks, i think for probably a minute and then ship. i had like 25 more than the pot and didn't want to entice the BB to come along if he had a FD and figured i might look bluffy seeing as i shipped my first 2 hands at table. CO quickly calls, BB thinks for a bit and folds a FD he says. river blanks and CO mucks his hand.
so now i was at 300 something, i keep chipping up and get up to 425ish like i said.
i was directly to the right of the aggro dbag kid in the first hand (i moved to have this :O) and decided to start 3betting him light. so he raised a limper from the HJ to 12, i 3bet to 35 with J9cc, the SB (BB in hand 2) calls and the aggro kid calls. effective stack was ~200 for both. flop comes down T97 dd. they check to me, i decide to cbet 100 hoping the cold caller has something like AK/AQ and will muck and even if he does show up with QQ+ i have plenty of outs. SB insta ships on my for 60something more and aggro kid folds. i call and he has K9dd for basically the flopped nuts and raping my hand. who cold calls 3bets with K9s at live 1/2 games? fml.
so now i have barely over 200. i'm in BB with 47dd. some limpers, this terrible european kid raises to like 7 over the limpers, aggro kid calls, i call because i was bored and it was just tossing in one chip (i hate when i do this) and limpers call. flop J66dd. aggro kid donks out 20. i make it 65 (whyyyy) folds to euro teribad kid who tanks for at least 2-3 minutes and finally flats (wtf?) and aggro kid folds. at this point i have about a pot behind and i'm trying to put him on some sort of range. i figured QQ+ or AJ, maybe KJ QJ? he was fairly tight so i didn't think his range was overly wide and i couldn't imagine what he could be flatting there. he tanked to long for me to think it was JJ or a legit hand. turn was Ah. i ship fairly quickly figuring i still have outs if he had AJ and calls, thought he folded a lot though. he snap calls with A6o (fml again, i assign way too good of ranges for terrible people. why?) and river bricks.
just finished up a 3 1/2 hour session online +800 though, felt good. was 4 tabling 6 max with 2 HU games on the side (all 100nl). 7 BI's were 6max and the other was HU. i was up more in HU but made 1 donkey calldown for a stack and then got rivered for another stack. it happens though. i was really happy with how i was playing online. i wasn't playing super nitty or anything, but i was just playing patient and well imo. i chipped up 2 BI's in the 6max before i even played a hand for stacks and my hand reading is getting much better at HU. i really liked the 2 HU / 4 6max thing.
i feel like i'm going to make a lot more playing fewer tables and crushing than playing lots of tables and griding out a small winrate/rakeback. i'm running at 8.87 PTBB/100 over a 12.3K sample, we'll see how well it keeps up.
anyways, that pretty much wraps it up. plans for this week or put in some hours, withdrawal 1k by tuesday or wednesday so i have it for vegas this wekeend (yes i'm going back and this time i plan to play basically all weekend) and grind out some more so i can a) hopefully withdrawal more and take more than just 1k to vegas and b) have money for europe and my cc bill. i haven't made a payment in months (i know it's really bad) and my credit is probably going to be shot for a few years. oh well, i'm young and my job can be pretty lucrative at times. i shouldn't need much credit.
that's it for now ... going to sleep for a bit and then probably session before my shitty job. i can't wait until i can quit there. fuck serving. :)
OHHHH -- if anybody actaully reads this that doesn't go on CP forums i'm looking for winrate prop bet action. nobody lower than 50nl. i'll obv take higher limits, but just know i'll be at 100nl. we can do over 10k/20k/30k hands, don't really care. just want to keep motivated.
