Only 11 buyins today
But in less hands (7500) so a better winrate than yesterday. I continue to run pretty decently here these past few days and it feels great. Poker is so much fun and I think so clearly when running good.I'm just playing around a 14/9/2 punishing the limpers and raising up the donk bets. I've realized that I don't need to risk much raising...

Ship the 12.5 buyin day
In 9996 hands. I still didn't run very good today lol. It was painful through the first 3k hands. But I probably ran a bit above average in the last 7k. I changed my game up today. I just said fuck it, I'm gonna play something resembling TAG, which meant 15/11/2.5.I think its better to play that way, even against legions of calling...

Couple Hands
Around 4k. Actually ran around average which felt kinda awesome. As much as I use this blog to whine and complain I do handle this stuff pretty well, or am at least getting better. I just took a long bike ride after last nights session, and it helped a lot. I didn't tilt a whole lot through this last downswing. I played a...

Played a bunch
It was terrible again. Probably 6 or 7k hands. I'll review some stuff in the morning and see if I was doing anything wrong. Just no point in getting mad. Its just a stupid game. I know that even if I did make mistakes today it just wasn't my day once again.

Dawn
Well its not dawn, its early afternoon, but dawn just sounds better. I usually never post before my sessions but I didn't feel like posting last night. I had a bunch of things to do so I got a late start yesterday. I sat down around 8pm hoping to be in some great friday night games. I was but I ran so horrid...

Long Day
Almost 12k hands. Didn't run particularly well but it wasn't terrible either. I think I just realized partway through the day that none of the shit that happens each day even matters. Its just cards and I'm always gonna be at the mercy of them in the short term. Tilt is just fucking stupid. There is no point in feeling like the world...

Back
Well I guess I'll start posting here again. Sorry for the random AWOL for those that read this. I've done it before, hopefully I won't do it again. During the past 2 months, overall I haven't played near as much as I was before. But I have been playing a fair bit so far this month.I don't currently have any explicit goals like...

That didn't keep me
