(sorry for all the emails, guys, I'm still learning this blog thing. I'll be more careful)
Dropped 2 buyins early, then cleaned up on the table. Sick, sick poker. I was begging them to call me, seriously and literally. This all looks pretty sloppy, but it really wasn't. The big hands I lost were while I was running bad, early. The late stuff was controlled, I think. When I was really wide open, I had such control of the table, they really couldn't lay a glove on me.
Losers:
-81bbs. J8 vs KT. We both got there. 1 buyin gone.
-40 bbs. ran into a set of dueces.
-40bb. 3 bet AJo + cbet from sb, fold to reraise. Looks like a move that ran into a hand.
-26bb. 2 barrel bluff. Folded river.
Winners:
+91bbs - Pretty wild. My bluff caught a pair of 9's. lol. 98o vs K7. He flopped a 7. Goofy.
+83bbs - A7s vs QQ. Flopped nut flush draw. Got lucky.
+53bbs - hero call / A high. He had 42o and called 2 big bets and tried to buff his way out.
+35bbs - 33 vs AJo. Set. He turned a Jack and went nuts. well, because of my image for sure.
+21bbs - AQo. Bluffed the turn.
+13bbs - KTo. I folded out the worst hand on the river.
I made 2 hero calls with A high, both times right. I won't post the hands, since that would just be bragging. The second one was a little funny.
He sez: How can you call, a 2 beats you.
I say: Yes, you could be bluffing with the best hand, but you were bluffing.
What can I say. I was on my game last night. Too bad I didn't make any money. Well, I did win my 2 buyins back, so that's something.
"Come On. I'm raising 40% of my hands. Fight Back! " lol
LAG can be seriously fun sometimes.
I feel my comeupance coming. Pride goeth before the fall.
Here's my thought for the day.
It's really fun to run over tables. It's good for the ego, but I keep playing just for that reason. There is no longer any easy money to be made. I created a table of people waiting to trap me. While it is hard to do, since their bets just screams MONSTER, all I am really playing for is coolers now. I'm in the same spot as a TAG. Swapping chips, hoping to be on the good side of a cooler.
I need to downshift! Tighten up abruptly, and let my image earn me some money. Can I be ego-free enough to do this? Can I just release my greasy grip on the table, let someone else take control, and wait for a good spot and loose action?
These sessions often get out of hand. This is where I start spewing. I think it might be a very good idea to adjust down in these spots, even though I am having so much fun. So, let's let that be the project for the week. I certainly can shift from low to high. Can I shift from high to low, without losing a big pot?
