Weekend and Monday play

No poker over the weekend. On Friday I was going to play but I had a few beers and found the discipline not even log onto the PC when I got home. Saturday was a great day. Train from London to Burnley for my Grandma’s surprise 80th birthday party. I also managed to fit in a quick few hours at a friend’s wedding as well with the reception at the new premiership ground (yippee) of Burnley -Turf Moor.
Monday – After I finished work I was itching to play. Although I delayed it a bit while I watched Andy Murray seesaw back and forward in his game. In the end I had to play and watch at the same time.
Things started of bad but ended on a high. Total played 7 games:
1*$12 90 man
2*$10 45 man
1* $6.5 90 man
2* $24 45 man
1* $24 90 man

I bombed out of the first one in just 5 hands. I flopped bottom set on a flop of A,Q,9 and got it all in against A,Q with Q turning. Say bye bye.

Some of the other were bad as well. All in with over pair v flush draw. Then I had a few ropey ones but after a few hours I was on 2 final tables. 1 45 man with the top 6 paying and I was chip leader going in. That didn’t go to well and I was out after 3 hands!! FFS muppet.

The last one was the best one to get a good score in the $24 90 man. I had gotten very lucky in this with 2 table left with a 2 way aipf. I had a,q and 2 people covered but the chip leader called as well with a,k!! The board came with a nice st8 for all of us J. I started to get real aggressive on the Ft and building up a nice stack. I ended up finishing 2nd to give me some profit from the night.

I have finished a few of these 2nd now and may need to calm down the aggression when I get heads up to try and trap more to get a hold of the big prize. Anyway here is a breakdown from the night.

I am hoping to get a few games in tonight as well and keep building on the good month so far.
