Made a few hands early and then just sat on my stack.  Seems that playing this game makes me realize what good solid poker players can do.

Another good day.  Sure makes it easy to win when your hands stand up.  Also finally getting a good table image at this game.  Getting respect allows me to make moves with hands.

Not bad for lossing with AA 3 times in 3/4 hours.  Once even flopped a set.  Then the idiots in charge sent to many people home so I had to go back to work.  Called it a day.

Doesn't help the hourly rate much.  Happy to get even again.  Early on got up 600 then took a break.  Came back and the game dynamic had changed.  A couple of new people were there raising everything.  I've always been told to play the opposite of the way the game is going...loosen up in tight games, tighten up in loose games.  Tried that and lost big pots with AA, QQ, QQ, JJ to runner runner garbage.  Decided to change it up a little after I had lost my win, even had to rebuy again for 300 more.  The donkeys finally went broke and one of them left 1500 winner.  Then it was back to regular poker.  Like I said, just happy to get basically even.

Had a couple of people playing every hand so was tough to put them on anything.  Then I had to go back to work when I finally established my table imagine.  Oh well, guess I can't beat them every time.

Started with getting a good solid table imagine.  Once I got the tables respect was able to make a few moves at the pot with second or third best.  Even stole one with 23 suited.  Jesse would be proud.

Just can't beat 5 donkeys at the table.  At least 3 of them called every hand regardless what it was raised pre.  If they had any draw they called. 
 
Good thing we have blackjack here so I can get even.  Don't want to put those stats in here but end up making 700 for the day.
