nothing much happening

Not been playing much at all, just haven't found the time recently

Was down at my parents place in Nelson for the weekend, so had a good time down there. Managed to play in some play money games, as it didn't show me with any cash there (need to talk to Stars about that)
Got a few 2nd places and some bad beats, but as it was all just play money I wasn't to worried about it at all

anywho hopefully be getting on some time this week, so will have a decent thing to post about

good luck out there

hmmmmmm

Will working from home yesterday I managed to get in a few games at the tables.
5 games for one 2nd place.

However twice when I was knocked out I had made trips on the flop
Only to be kicked out by a flush.
1st hand was a 4 card flush that he filled on the river, was abso spewing over that
2nd I pushed all in after the flop and snap called for his flopped flush.

Gave up for the day after that.

Hope that everyone else is doing better

Good luck on the felt

Weekend

did to much over the weekend to really get much time in at the tables, however I did manage to play one 9 player SnG and managed to get 2nd, so my first real cash since depositing.

Was pretty happy with my play, just going through the HH now, one hand where I lost just about 1/3 my stack, should of played that one better. Villain raised the flop and turn after I had bet out and then re-raised all in after my river bet. Should of checked the river and seen what he did, but I can't of been paying enough attention.

Still going through the history so may edit this post later.

I know that the knockout hand I had my money in good with AJo v A3o, was about 1/2 off the villain's stack at that time, he hit a 3 on the flop and gg (he may have made the straight i'll clarify once I finish the HH)

Good luck to everyone

Finally

finally got round to depositing some money into my stars account, so I now have a roll of $45 available to me.

Played in 4 games last night
1) 9player s'n'g $1 buyin
2) 360 turbo $0.10
3) 90 turbo $0.25
4) 90 turbo $0.25

Ended up cashing in game 2 finishing 14th for a whole $0.40
Bubbled in game 1 after losing abut 1/2 my stack early, managed to play solid and hold on until 4 left - the other 3 had stacks of around $4k to my $1k so I pushed with KJo I think and got called and lost it on the flop.

3rd game just annoyed me, 1st hand dealt 10 10, called an all in against A8s
Flop contains an A, River an 8 and I'm out.

4th game lasted for quite a while, was in the top 10 for long stretches until I lost 1/2 my stack calling an all in. I need to check the hand history when I get home tonight, but he was drawing to a gutshot vs my top 2 pair. Needless to say he hit, not sure if the all in was on the turn or river.
Ended up finishing in 20th when 12 paid.

So overall for the night -$1.30, can only get better

Good luck out there on the felt

Same ol

played a few games last night
mostly just having fun while watching a mate getting back into things and trying to help him out as much as I could.

Managed to "cash" in a play money game 4/45 for 7200 chips
everytime I tried to bust someone my cards didn't hold, but still made it that far.

Registered for the Australia New Zealand Poker Tour freeroll and got blinded out while watching telly with my wife.
Finished 615/2490 compared with the night before when I was playing and ended up 540/2600 so not much better really

Prob won't be on over the weekend as my folks are up visting, wanting to see there grandson again, so will try and get on when I can but doubt it will be much

good luck at the felt

Not much happening

been to busy with other things recently so not much time at the tables.
Played a little on Sunday in the Aussie Millions freeroll round 2, went out just before the 1st break. Don't remember what happened.

Was off sick yesterday so played in a 360 person 2000playchip game. Was running nice, in the top 10 for most of the tourney.
Ended up "cashing" in 27th, had been going really well went all in ahead and got rivered by a flush to my top 2 pair. Oh well, life goes on

good luck to all
