Some pictures I took here recently from my latest black jack exploits. Notice the dealer tray is lacking in black chips, because I have them all!

Back in the Saddle
After going on a huge blackjack heater and a subsequent implosion, I have decided to give blackjack a break for a while. I am still up on blackjack after my short career, but the variance has just been huge. Also my bankroll has taken a fairly major hit. I took 25k out to pay for something, so I am working on a limited bankroll at this point, and I don't have the bankroll anymore to handle the blackjack variance.
So, I am back to playing poker only. Since June 1st, I have only played 8 poker sessions, totaling almost 32 hours of play. I have been running pretty well over this limited span, with an hourly rate of $139/hour.
Here's the summary of the sessions since then:
Jul 3 20/40 1187 7 hours
Jul 2 20/40 487 6 hours
Jun 17 20/40 1915 5 hours
Jun 17 8/16 -14 0.75 hours
Jun 4 20/40 216 5.33 hours
Jun 3 40/80 770 2.66 hours
Jun 3 8/16 -286 1.17 hours
Jun 1 20/40 100 3.5 hours
On Saturday's session I got bluffed out of a fairly large pot, holding pocket aces. I posted about it on 2+2 in this thread. I was certain that Helen, limped in with a hand like T9, J9, 98, 97, particularly after firing the river bet, and with another player still behind me, who I thought had a good chance of having pocket queens, I decided not to light my $40 on fire, and folded the river. Helen had KTs, while the other horrible player had AQs and of course paid her off.
