Been a while since I last updated. I've actually run fairly well recently, stringing a bunch of winning sessions together. Just played my first losing one in a while. Played pretty bad. Tired and got a head cold, but thought I could play anyway. Had some bad hands in there though.

First the good one. For some reason, I've pretty much never used the bet flop, c/r turn line. Dunno why, I guess I'm always either value betting or folding mostly in my game. Had a few hands where people have told me it would be good, so looking for spots.

Umm, this one I didnt actually c/r it turns out, but somewhat similar. Tried the underbet approach, another line someone mentioned to me in a different hand, but not sure if its best here or not.

Hand 1

pretty bad, something like 40/30 and just...bad.

That hand turned a bad session into a slightly losing one, so I chose to stop (Fnords win half of it back approach). Heres some of the losers:


Hand 2

DaleCooper theorem lets me down!

Something like a 50/10, should have postflop reads but dont.

I guess river is a fold, but damn it looked so bluffy from a bad player...


Hmm, other one is getting a "parse error" when I try to read it in HM, but basically a loose CS calls me pre with TT and I have J8, flop Q83 so I v'bet he calls, turn J so obv I v'bet my 2P, river 9 so I v'bet again and he raises ai for less than my bet so I call and see his backdoored straight. Ahh well.

Def didnt play well though. I really want to grind through some hands to get enough FPPs to maintain my VIP status, and it'll take a fair effort to do so by now, but playing under the weather doesnt seem like a great idea. Hopefully I'll wake up better tomorrow.
