December 31, 2008, 11AM: Played 2 hours, Lost $255.00 at Limelight
$3 No-Limit Texas Hold'em

Lost 220 on AA vs KK, and was actually thinking of laying the KK down preflop.  I just knew the guy had AAs, but realized during the hand that I'd be foolish to EVER lay down KK preflop.  I slow play, and he raises in small blind to $20, so I raise back to $60.  He raises me another $75, so obviously he's ready to put it all in right there.  He wasn't on tilt, as a matter of fact, he was playing pretty solid poker and had accumulated over $500.  I put him on AA or QQ and said to myself that I'm never going to lay down KK preflop, so I just went all in and he called immediately.  Oh well, those all even out in the long run.

November 16, 2007, 7PM: Played 7 hours, Made $11.00 at Full Tilt
$5 Buy-In HORSE Tournament (2nd out of 69 Players)

i was down big yesterday... then went online when i was half loaded and lost some more until i got tracktion in two tournaments
 
one was horse, where i finished 2nd because i blew it heads up
one was a 45 sng where i also blew it heads up
 
the horse was the 2nd consecutive horse tourney i final tabled on... won the last one... disappointed because i know i was much better than the guy i was heads up with, i just got myself in some stupid limit hold'em situations

December 31, 2007, 3AM: Played 1 hour, Lost $11.70 at Poker Stars
$11.70 Buy-In No-Limit Texas Hold'em Tournament (20th out of 46 Players)

Annoyed, get heads up and have the chip lead.
 
Then I trap agro boy for his stack when he decides aquiring a flush draw on the turn is worthy of his tournament life... he hits.
 
Now I have 2k and him 5k, I grind on to even the stacks out at 3.5k each.  As soon as I get a lead he goes bezerk on me, raising 10xs the BB pre, moving all in pre, shit, the blinds were only 25/50.
 
I finally trap him with 22 vs his A2, but he escapes.
 
I could have waited for a better spot but I was sick of his over the top raises and new I had him dominated.  What more could I ask for?

$1 Buy-In No-Limit Texas Hold'em Tournament (14th out of 1357 Players)

ajfdlkajdsf....pretty deep (50ish left) and i raise from the button with J8c to push around short stacks in the blinds, BB thinks for a min then calls, 567 flop and he insta shoves so basically its obv that he was running a stop n go and could have anything so i have to call getting great odds and he flips up the 94 lol.  hits the 8 and i am down to 15k instead of 45 with 1-2k blinds...gotta try to get back in it now.
 
ahh, QQ in early position and i make it 18k (had 92k to start the hand)...Chip leader pushes me all in from the SB and i call.  he has AK and i lose a race...i ran good most of the tourney so i can't complain but that woulda been guaranteed final table if i win that race.

December 27, 2007, 12AM: Played 1 hour, 30 minutes, Lost $2.25 at Full Tilt Poker
$2.25 Buy-In No-Limit Texas Hold'em Tournament (33rd out of 154 Players)

On this hand I went out on, I figured a my 99 were good on the flop because realistically 1010 or JJ would have raised me preflop...I was wrong and 1010 snap called me....Overall, not too bad for my first tournament in 2 months...

Poker Journal

I took my 1.75 and turned it into 2.39 which is a .64 cent profit playing.5-.10 limit on b-dog.  I played tight aggressive and it paid off.  I will build this stack by playing beginner sngs on b-dog til I can venture off into other areas of the poker world.  I followed that up by finishing 2nd in a 2.20 beginner sng on b-dog.  I should have won.  My opponent pushed and claimed he wanted a flipament.  I believed him and I was right.  He had 5-8 and I had a6.  He flopped an 8.  That crippled me and he went on to win.  I played perfect for the most part.  I will win more often than not.  roll up to 5.19 now.  MOVIN ON UP! I decided to invest 4.40 in 2 beginner sngs and finished out of the money in both.  Both times with AK once vs aces and once vs 99.  God I hate AK! Well down to .79 cents now.  micro donkament cash game I guess!
