I did a lot of online playing last week, but I never updated this blog. It was all tournaments ranging from 4-12 dollar buy in's. It is funny, that in person I will enter a $200 tourney with no problem and/or bring a ton of money to cash game, I will play for way smaller limits. I have my reasons for that, but I will save that for another time.
Last week, my big win( not really financially) was I entered a $4 tournament that had 1163 people in it. I got down to the final 40, so I was way in the cash. I was pretty short stacked, but I played smart and didnt just shove with anything, and I eventually got it to where I was about 10th place with 25 left, but blinds were creeping fast. I ended up getting QQ and had to shove, got called by AA. what else can I do? I went out 14th. Here is the problem, I only one $43 for that. Yes, I wont 10 times my buy in, but to sit there for 4 hours and win 43 bucks is good and bad all at the same time.
Other then that last week, I played 22 tournmanents where it is the double or nothing were it is 5 to enter. I won 12 of them, so I ended up exactly even when you back out the small fee on each one.
I also did 6 KO tournies all for 9 bucks each. in those 6 tournies, I knocked out 13 people so I got 13 bucks on that, but I only cashed in one of them, so out of the 54 I spent to get in to those tournies, I only one about 25 total, so I lost about 30 on those.
I did the daily dollar twice( $1 to enter) and cashed both times, but both times it was only for 2.20 so I ended up winning approx. $2 total in those.
I did about 6, $8 tournies and about 10 $4 tournies, in all of those I ended up cashing in a couple but only winnning about 45 total, so I lost on that.
In cash, I stepped up and was playing .5/1, 2 windows open at all times. In the first 3 days of the week when I played, I ended up $375 in those days. It was great, the big hand was when I had kj suited and I was on the button and it was $3.50 to see the flop and 4 people were already in. Instead of raising, I jut called( I had about 80 in front of me). flop comes out aq10 rainbow. it goes check, $7 bet, raise to $18. I then push for all mu chips, happy to take it down or get someone on a draw to commit all of their money to me. Both betters called me( the others folded). We all had about the same, but they both had about 10 more, the turn was the 4 of clubs, which put 2 clubs on board, they both insta shoved all in for their remaining 20 or so each. I am ahead with my straight, but I have no flush. Other guy has a10 of clubs, so now he has 2 pair and a flush draw( in my head I am thinking 13 outs to beat me) other guy shows q10 so he can only win with a q, bc I already lost if the case 10 comes out. River is a 7 of diamonds and I take the whole pot.
The problem with that was within the next two days I was able to lose about $300 back to cash games, which put me back down for the week, and then last night I just bought in for 70 bucks at that table while watching the end of one of the games, got lucky on some hands, got up to 130 real quick and just signed off. It was an interesting week of online for me.
