Staking record

Staking duties demand that I report on my sessions so I thought I'd post them here as well as on the RTR forum.

Session review 1 - $3 down: Was pretty card dead throughout and there was some aggressive preflop stuff going on so I couldn't really get involved. A few occasions where I raised with A10 in position and got shoved for 20-30 bb by a short stack and hate doing possible races in those situations. Was $12 down at one point and then I picked up a couple of hands (only top pair and two pairs) and got it back up to $3 down.Session review 2 - $6 down: Much more interesting sessions after some early card deadness. Doubled up with this which I thought I played ok.

I knew if I hit any of my turn outs I would have him.After that though I had two hands which could have got me in a lot of trouble but didn't.

I like to play smallish pots with AK because you're only ever going to win small pots because you're playing a kicker game with AK. Out of position I'm happy to check-call (maybe check raise dry flops) when I flop an A. Something smelt bad throughout the flop action so I thought I made a pretty disciplined fold. Then I had this hand which I'm pretty satisfied with the way I played.

I had to bet the flop to avoid getting into trouble later in the hand. I maybe could have sized my bet a little better (maybe 1/2 the pot) to save a little more money. Of course AK was the most obvious hand when he shoved so I folded and he showed me that so I think I half dodged a fairly expensive bullet.So on reflection I think I limited my losses quite well in this session. I maybe could have quit earlier but you can always say that.

Sorry that it looks crap. I can't be bothered formatting it.
