Completely forgot about that HU match, hands are pretty vague in memory now.

It was 40BB HU with 8min blinds levels so loads of variance. This guy started off minraising around 80% of buttons which was unexpected (passive opponents as standard). I was flatting quite wide but in retrospect should have 3bet one or 2 more hands, got in 1 3bet with T6s 2BB=>6BB which I think was too small though he still folded. He 3bet 1/2 times both of which I had garbage and ended up folding my 2.5BB open, didn't want to 4bet jam and get snapped by something like KJ not knowing his 3betting range. Picked up on a timing tell that he always acted quicker when he had air and slowed right down when he had hit.

Anyways there were a few hands where it was taken down with a cbet. One hand where I lead a gutshot and got raised. Big hand was where he opened, I called with JTo and flop came AQxr, goes ck ck, turn is a K and I lead pot he calls river is a brick I bet he jams AJ. So I think I had 6k to his 2k at this point, blinds were getting high and he was shipping most BTN's. I tried raising a polarized range and limping a merged range with short stacks though ended up being card dead so it didn't work great.Big mistake was me not shoving enough myself towards the end. Ended up being 7/3BB each and he won with 66 vs A6 and 22 vs KJ. Overall just reinforced the point that I'm not great at tournaments (especially 15-30BB stage) but I'd like to play more HU if I get the chance.

What I just wrote looks semi incoherent but I can't really remember much else about it.

Back in the present I'm doing work on a progress report and some lite revision for January exams. On the poker front I've almost reached the $50 bonus for this year, getting that then stopping. Also using my FPP's to play 235fpp 6m sats to the sunday storm, I'm unlikely to get the higher end bonuses any time soon and want to get a decent rate for my fpps so these seem like good value. Played 8 and cashed 3 for T$33, have 10k fpps left so hopefully should make around another 100.

Will probably move sites now that stars is fucking around around with the rake, maybe go to ipoker or titan.

New habit I'm trying to do is meditate for 5mins every day, successful so far.
