After sunday , I decided to give a bit of live poker a shot . I went to a local bar the has a $20 mtt with about 15-30 players depending on who all shows up , and then there is a $1/$1 cash game with no rake after people bust from the mtt . I played the tournament but could not win an all in late and ended up busting that . By this time there were 2 cash games running , one was better than the other but it was full so I just waited for about 30 mins and bsed with a friend . Finally someone busted from the good table and I was able to grab the seat .
The game was so so so soft with lots of monster raises with mediocre hands and everyone was playing pretty deep stacked . I had a slow start and lost like 30 or so , but I added on to be about 160 or so deep with most of the table covered . I flopped top pair wit kqs on qxx board and got 2 streets vs 2 opponents for a nice pot to get me rollin . Won a decent pot wit kk , then I flopped a set on 369 with a flush draw after limping behind and calling a raise, I chose to check raise the flop because the game was just really loose and I figured no flush draw is ever folding anyways . Turn was another 3 , at this point I was thinking about how to get stacks in , and may have made a mistake , I decided to make a smaller turn bet than I should have reflecting back . I got a call but pretty sure villain was on a draw as he folded to my just under pot sized river shove after hollywooding a bit . After this pot , I value towned an old fish that I had mouthed earlier in the night about something political lol , he ended up paying off 2 large streets with middle pair . After a shitty start to the night I ended up with a very good session , with a couple mistakes also !
The online game has been up and down , I am still playing too many donkaments when I should jut be grinding cash . But the games still seem pretty soft even though I have been having a bit of downer . I am gonna try and buckle down and actually start trying to get my sessions in like I was before this month . Overall I am still feeling pretty confident in my poker game and looking forward to turning around this month online .
