Different Day, Different Results

Played 40/80 on both Friday and Saturday nights.

Friday get tortured, get in 2 racks in less than 45 minutes, and end up a 3100 loser before I called it quits.

Saturday can do no wrong, although there are a couple of hands I wish I could have replayed, but in all book a 4150 win.

Go figure, limit holdem, hello variance.

New Ride

Bought a new 2010 Nissan Altima 2.5S last night. Finally time to give up my truck, says the wife, particularly with a new one on the way!

Birthday!

Had my birthday last week. Turned 35. Guess I'm getting old. Got in a fair amount of poker, since I had most of the week off of work. Will recap later, but I won all three days I played. Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday. Wednesday was weird, killed the 40/80, but got killed in the 20/40. Friday all over the place, but picked up a package after the carnage was done, and Saturday won $22.

Tilt!

Don't do it. I lost 50 big bets in the 20 game, and 25 big bets in the 40 game. Total damage -$3999 in 7.5 hours.

Must not tilt, must strive to become tiltless, thus I will tilt less.

I can bluff with the best of them!

Pulled off two great bluffs last night.

One I had pocket 2's and the board read J 9 3 9 J (in that order).
I don't totally remember the preflop action, but I was in the small blind and I called a raise playing 4 or 5 handed. Flop came J 9 3 rainbow, and it checked around. Turn was a 9, and the BB bet, folded around to me and I called. River was Jack, and I donked. Big blind looked at me, looked at the board, looked at his cards, and say I can't call with 4-high and open mucked 43s. Dealer mucked his cards and I opened my bluff.
