hit my target

bumped up over $300 tonight, after a long slump. It was probably one of my longer sessions of the week with 406 hands. I was playing 2 tables for part of it and quite a bit of HU play involved. That pushes variance and # of hands.

I only finished the session up ~$27.70. Its an estimate because a little bit of my play I forgot to start the hh box so that pahud could grab the hands, and the table broke after just a little play.

I transfered out $100+$5.25 to neteller. This is so that I can play in a home game sunday. Alot of people around here go to the race (Indy 500) but growing up within earshot of the track, I'd rather be playing poker. I am still on the fence though if I should go play. The games usually vary between $20 and $50 buyin, and the games play like a turbo b/c the players are so damn slow.

The host said he isnt inviting the ppl who are more interested in drinking than playing, but that can be -EV or +EV depending how you look at it. The last time I played this game I came home a winner for about +$200. I definetly think I am one of the stronger players. On the other hand, my bankroll is small, and I dont want to mess with moving such a significant portion of it around.

I'll probably go ahead and go, maybe just take $40 and committ to playing to $20 freezeouts, who knows...

I had one hand that I thought I played great tonight, the other guy even commented on how I sucked him in. I didnt get his whole stack, which I probably could have, but I got most of it.

Here's a hand where I was stacked. I was positive this guy was weak, and really put him on a busted flush draw. I was right about him being weak, but wrong about the flush draw.
