4275 hands played and I'm now up $100.20 at $0.50/$1 Limit Hold'em this month. I think I started my session before midnight playing 4 tables. I finished it at 7.30am this morning playing 3. It's approx 8:40am at the time of writing.
BR is now $1140.19! I plan to play 20k hands at this level then move to $1/$2. Obv I am massively overrolled for $0.50/$1 but I want to be sure I can beat the small stakes in Limit Hold'em (LHE) before I go to $1/$2 and higher. I have in the past felt Hold'em was my weak point. If I can refine my skills playing LHE I think I will improve on versatility, enabling me to play the game everyone's playing, instead of constantly desiring mixed games and more particularly, O8. If I can get good at Hold'em I'll feel more comfortable playing the WSOP Main Event in the years to come. That's not particularly my dream - I'd much rather play the $1500 events and $50k HORSE! But at least I'll be able to have a crack at it.
All that said, I still prefer my bread and butter Omaha 8. But as always, variety is the spice of life.
By the way, if you don't already watch it, the TV show House is great. I highly recommend it!
Here's something for your perusal! A classic LHE blind battle. Chilliflush opened preflop and I went with my read that my K high was good the whole way and called each time he bet. He bet flop, turn and river.
Signing off,
