Week Rap-up
by mjbern23 on 08/09/08
So after a interesting week of switching from a all-tourny player to a majority-cash table player, i have mixed feeling about my week, but mostly positive...
Monday-Thursday i was running over the 1/2 cash tables at an incredible clip...At the end of Thursday i had logged 14 hrs at a total profit of nearly $1600...All 6 sessions were winning sessions and even ran pretty bad on Thursday but was up $250 in 4 hrs play...Then came Friday...and man it came hard...My afternoon session was downright miserable...in 15 mins i was in the hole almost $200 after missing some draws and just hitting nothing post flop...I managed to get back within about 100 of the red side in the next hour and called it quits before anymore damage could take place...So i took a few hours off then jumped back on at night to try and get back in the right direction as i thought i could eclipse $2000 profit for the week quite easily...Well that didnt happen...Friday night i ran the worst i may ever have X10...In a 5 minute stretch i lost over $550 in equity pots with AA and AA and the one was absoluty atrocious...Im in mp with a bet to 7 from utg...i reraise to $20 and folds back to the original raiser...he re raises to $55 and i go all in for around $120...he insta calls...i have him on KK...flop is Q710r turn is Q river is 4...he flips over AQ...sigh...$240 there...oh well...not a couple minutes pass when on a different table again i hold AA this time on the BB...2 limpers to me i raise to $10...both limpers call sb folds...flop is 10d7d3x...i raise to $25 1 folds other limper calls...next card is 4x...i raise to $50 about 2/3 pot hoping to get rid of the draws but guy goes all in for about 50 more...i insta call river is Qd...he flips over K3dd...sigh...at this point i am irate and start playing loose and long story short go down about $350 in 2 hrs before i drag myself off the tables before killing something...
So Saturday i take it easy and just jump on 4 tables for 1:45 mins to complete my 20 hr trial for the week and get a little back aboout $125 which put my final weekly total at $1280 in profit in 20hrs a little over $60/hr which is good but alot lower than i hoped for after my great first 4 days where i was pulling around $140/hr...
I also won my Tuesday night league for $400 but did terrible in my saty's going about $150 down and only cashing in 2/14 with no tickets to show for...
So for my first week which i felt was really a feeler week went pretty well...i definitly learned several things and think i have some tools now that will help me in the future as well as a better game plan on how to attack a good weekly scheduale...I think Sunday's will still be my Tourny days...Tomorrow ill play the Warm-up/daily 30k/sunday 200k/sunday mil while Monday-Friday i can grind out 20hrs of cash and saturday try my hand at some saty's for the upcoming sunday and play some VIP weekly/monthly freerols...Im pleased to say that i am now a Silver Star and by the middle of next week will easily eclips Gold star status...I also think i have an outside shot at reaching Platinum star by the end of the month...depending on the volume i put in, should atleast give me extra icentive to play...
Hopin for a successful Sunday and another profitable week ahead!!!
