I've been playing some really good poker over the past week. It seems I'm becoming more consistent as for the first time my graph is looking quite stable . I had one really bad moment a few hours ago when in the first few hands of a SNG I went all in with 55 on a board with 3 overcards, a real :fp: moment where afterwards you think wtf did I just do. Collin Moshman's book has really helped me understand the game a lot better, a recommended read for any SNG player.

I deposited $50 a few weeks ago, and my FT balance currently stands at $75 :)

13 SNG's today:

12 1.15$ where its 10 players winners get $2 so they tend to be nice and easy cashed in 8
1 5.40$where its 10 players winners get $10 cashed in 1.

I decided to join Pokerstars (username: satriales3). I can't believe how rubbish the players are there :lol:

I just sat at one $0.05/0.10 cash table with $5 and in less than 20mins I was up to $20. Every time I hit a good hand (such as quads) I was getting multiple callers all the way to the river.
One hand I had AQ and I raised pre-flop, just one person called and the flop came down 665. I was sure I was ahead and the other guy only had about $4 so I put him all-in and he instantly called with Q3 :fp:. Easy money.

May play some this evening.

Yeah for like the 10th time that was my mistake. :cry:

Lonestar what sort of things have you picked up from the book? I don't wanna waste moneys on stuff I already know pretty well.

Sykes is currently deep in a 180 man SnG. Made the money too with 14 left. If he can take it down it is a massive boost to his roll!

CTRL + F (Psychic Sykes) for rail with me.

In the most VITAL LPPL game ever, I'm totally and utterly luckless. I didnt hit the board ONCE.

Either way, I scraped to 15th out of 20, which nets me a few points, just got to wait for the leaderboard to update to see if Im close enough to turn up as a reserve.

:(

Still, won the cash game.

I played one of those 180 man SnG's earlier (just a $2.20 one) and came 10th. Could of done better if my AA hadn't got beaten by 66 to knock me out :|
