OK, how about a little actual poker status content for a change?
After spending some awesome quality time with the love of my life, I found myself sitting on the La-Z-Boy at 11pm with nothing to do. Well, that’s not totally true, but it was late and I thought I could put off the hard thinking until later.
I sidled up to a table at Party Poker and played for a total of 35 minutes and, for the first time in quite a while, I posted a decent profit.
Woo hoo!
I actually played pretty well too. I felt good about it and think I played things pretty much correctly including my rockets from the BB. Oh, and flopping a full house with K3o from the big blind. Somebody even made a baby flush on the river so I was able to get something (not as much as I’d like since the board had KK which scared everybody else).
All in all, a short session, but one that showed me that I’m not a total idiot when it comes to this. When you don’t play too often, when the downside of variance hits, it seems like you never win since every session for a long time is bad (and I’m not counting the blogger table, those are just for fun). Hopefully I’m back to playing well again and I can start to see some profits, that’d be a nice change.

Blogger tables are SERIOUS poker! If you’re a micro limit Gus Hanson.

Congrats on booking the profit! Quality time is important, too.
