4/18/09

Not too much to talk about the last few days. Played very few hands, ran very good and stacked some very big fish. I forgot how much good table selection can improve your win rate. I obviously ran above expectation, but playing with guys that get it in routinely with middle pair, in spots where they are never good, helps cut variance and brings up the hourly. On the other hand, I usually have 10-15 tables going, and practicing very solid game selection is not something you can always do when 12 tabling. I will have to give serious thought to reducing the number of hands I expect to play each month in an attempt to better game select.

I Played a few smaller buy-in tournaments the other night. One was a $55 4 max, one was a $77 6 max, and one was a $5 plo with rebuys. I played the last one just for the fun of it, and of course went deep in it, staying up until 5 am to take it down for a whopping $450. Don't get me wrong, that is decent money for sure, but when the average buy-in to the tourneys you play is $150, you kinda wish you could use your good luck on something else. Whatever, its certianly better than not winning it.
Other than that I have been just hanging out with friends/Anna. Anna and I went to see "I Love You Man" which we both thought was really funny. I don't know if Judd Apatow can write anything that isn't at least worth the watch. His movies are some of my favorite that I have seen this year.

The count:
Hands played: 482
Amount Won/lost: +$2300
Time played: ~2.25 hours
Total Won/lost: +$2749
