More outrageous hot decks.

Profit: $30

So I had 15 hands of monster cards a couple of days ago. Yesterday I had 30 minutes of crazy stuff, but not before a set back.

Over the weekend I got my bankroll over a magical figure and decided to up my sit and go stakes from $2 to $5. I was determined to play at those stakes for at least ten buy ins to see if I could compete at that level. Sadly, in the two games I played I was totally card dead and never stood a chance. I played really well in both of them and had this had which I was particularly proud of.

I don't know how I came out of that hand with any chips at all. I thought I controlled the pot well and managed to fold superbly at the end when the odds to call were crazy.

I stuck around in that game and it took a nasty KQ v KJ beat to knock me out.

After not cashing in either game without ever having a chance my confidence was a bit down. It was further knocked by a $2 sit and go where I'd murdered silly players going all in only to see my KK get cracked by JJ.

But then, after I decided to try out my new tight/aggressive style on cash rooms, this lot happened.

Now I'm not for one moment saying I played any of those hands well - with the exception of the K 10 hand when I had a good read on the player and worked out, correctly, that if he was only calling he had a weak king - they all played themselves. But I did complain about all the bad beats I've taken over the last six weeks so I have to record the good cards too. Mind you, I'm not sucking out on anyone, I'm playing the maths and my new found aggression. Again it helped that all these were in cash rooms which really maximised the profit I could make from them.

For once, I have nothing to complain about :)
