the last week

well i hope everyone is good and well and the cards are working for you!!

well i have some up and then downs since my last post
the day after my last post i played a $2 turbo on FT and WON for a nice $9, the account up to $20 now, however since then i played 3 and out early in one, bubble in another and 3rd this morning so prob more like $15 right now

On stars i been playing the $6 2 table turbos, i got 2nd for $30 or 40 i also bubbled once and another lower finish

so it mixed bag,

this morning though i crumbled and played a cash table!! i got stop myself cos i only seem to lose, there is a different style required for cash tables and i just haven't got it yet!! any tips on cash game greatly appreciated!!

so i put $25 on a table, too much of my bank roll i know, but i just cant seem to manage the lower limits, i know i still losing on this limit but i feel apart from the one bad call i always make where i lose, overall at the 10c/25c table i got more of a feel for things

so starts ok small pot here, then i make Ace high str8 and get a few more dollars off a guy, and i up to $31.55 so nearly $7 up, then in BB i have Q6diamonds and late guy min raises as a few see call i figure i getting odds for a speculative call
flop comes QA6 rainbow!!
ok so 2 pair, and given the size of raise pre flop i guessing no one got AQ, A6 maybe? but i figure my 2 pair best or even right now so i check
there a bet and then the original raiser (late guy) raises to 75c, not that strong given pot size, so i reraise to $2.50 everyone else folds he thinks and calls,
turn = 2, not scary right? so now the pot getting big, he started with bout $8-10 so he only got bout 3-4 left now, and i want it so i figure this guy has an Ace and will bet it so i check again, bit dodgy but he bets $2 i rerasie him all in and he calls

i have 2 pair Q&6
he has A2 for 2 pair!!
damn!!

so i lose and down to like $19
small pots here and there, and then another time i manage to lose a $5 pot and down to $13, at this point i figure best i leave before i do the lot!!

so stars account now down to bout $90 after being up close to $130, damn!! just a few tournys with no cash and 2 bad days on cash

must avoid the cash til i get control and more roll!!

will do some strategy posts soon

non poker related, get in Man utd, awesome game to come back against AC Milan for a 3-2 lead, though still on knife edge, but even better, the come back against everton for a 4-2 win, esp when Bolton did us huge favour and drew with Chelsea!!

also what a lovely wkend, shame i was on a course all day sat, but spent sunday in garden, unfortunately all day working as currently its a jungle that indiana jones could happily trek though, still some progress and garden looking bit more friendly now!!
