Not a bitch/gripe/rant in any way.
Just found it interesting, especially since the second hand happened 8 hands after the first.

2nd hand is standard.

First hand I would have probably raised to $4 pre. Once you are raised on that flop, you should have re-raised and shoved AI. You have 17 outs and about a 68% of hitting one of your outs by the river.

calling that flop raise was not good.

Original, how has your play gone? I remember when you started out about a year ago...seeing nice gains?

I've been doing alright.. unfortunately I took some big hits trying to practice HU (which im pretty weak at)... Over all I'm doing pretty good though. CR and 2+2 has helped a lot.

How about you?

Pubknight! We're reminiscing about your Jaeger ownage in a thread in GD. Good times man. Poker going well for you?

I haven't played much lately. I have money online but I tend to get motivated and unmotivated. I usually start to play again when ever a Vegas trip is coming up. Since I have 3 planned I'll probably start hitting it pretty hard again.

I submitted papers to get a cardplayer magazine internship for the Series as well - Free room - paid. That would be pretty sick :P

Happy poker playing :]

everyone knows you suck at poker john...so stop trying :)

not really...never asked copa for anything. no time for poker anymore :(

I just moved to 50NL from 25NL adroit. Unfortunately, I just don't have the time I used to with a girlfriend now. I can only get in like 15,000/hands a month. :(

Hopefully I can figure out a way to play more.
