I hate mondays!!
As promised i'm on the $20 tables to start,early doors and i'm up to 2.5k in chips.The play is poor to say the least! On 1 hand i start with 88 in late position so with only calls before me i raise 3x BB (its only 15/30) 2 people call and the flop is AK6,i check and wait,the next player goes all in 1 after that calls,i fold sharpish! lt turns out 1 has JJ and the other only has 33!!! O well i suppose it's only $20 but a little thought may have made 1 of them get a longer game!! Then its my turn to play badly,with bottom pair(77) after the flop i try to get the 2 short stacks to bugger off with a 5x BB bet,it works with 1 but the other 1 goes all in for his last 800 or so then tables K10 diamonds-the flop was only 1 diamond! i call and of course another 10 pops up,thats like a third of my stack gone-woops! onto about level 4 (50/100) and nothing is happening for me,i get A5 and decide on an A flop to shove it all in! Pretty crap play with such a weak kicker,sure enough i get out kicked to send me packing!! After laughing about the bad play of some i lose this game by playing just as bad!! DOH!! Down to the $10 tables for 2 quick wins i hope! A little bit more attention 2 my game i feel, 2 hands show i can do this no sweat!! Early on (15/30) i get JQ,its called to me late so i'm happy to get in cheap,flop comes JK7 rainbow,4 players bet the minimum so i do! turn is a 6,again they all minimum bet so as i know the king is not a worry i raise 3x.this time i get 2 callers so i'm definetly ahead,the river is another lovely J! here they go again with their min bets! so i raise to 250 & get 2 callers! A 1k more to me thanks to the calling stations!! Then with 10,9 suited i call another short stacked players allin on a 10 7 A flop knowing he has not got the A,my top pair beats his 77 and its plain sailing until the money comes my way! The second game is even easier,plenty of raising by me,bluffs and reraising sees me chip leader early,i cant even remember any noteable hands,they just gave themselves up! At level 5 (100/200) 4 had gone,and the short stack managed to not have enough for the BB so that was that! So after losing a $20 and winning 2x $10 tables i finish up on $226 which is -$4 (the tourneys rake)for the night. All i need to do is have a bit more patience and victory is mine! laterz.
