After my big loss yesterday playing $2/$4 Omaha 8 I quickly got over it, lost my sad face and thought, "Fuck it, let's play Limit Hold'em!" So I fired up 5 tables of $0.50/$1 full ring and 3 of $1/$2 full ring and about 8 hours later that same day, I had won another $100.
Today I played a $6.60 Stud 8 MTT for my poker breakfast, which took about 3 hours. I came 2nd and unfortunately it only paid two places. After watching more House (Now on Season 4 Episode 11) I had a bath, got dressed and fired up some Limit Hold'em DeucesCracked videos. During watching those I decided to start playing. So I opened 2 tables of 6max $0.50/$1 FLHE and I was away. I played for about 6 hours, I am guessing I played something like 1200 hands. It was a weird session because I was massively crushing it on one table (sat with $16, finished with $92) yet getting massively donked on the other (finished on $6, had reloaded a couple of times). Ultimately it led to a profit of only $5.35, which sucks for the amount of time spent but at least I didn't lose. I quit when I realised I was getting tired and impatient and I'd just lost a big pot with Qs9s on one table where I ran into slowplayed AA and 44 where I flopped a set on an A94 flop and bet, guy with 7c6c called and turned a flush+straight draw, he rivered it and I capped the river because I thought he had aces up. That second hand is pretty ridiculous but it's not the first time I've lost with a set to some miracle backdoor hand playing this game.
What is fun about that whole endeavour is that it made my bankroll become exactly $999.99. Going to stick with the Limit Hold'em games and hopefully get back to where I was before BR-wise, toward the $1175 mark.
Signing off,
