Cash, positve results,then negative, then positive!

What's happened since my last post.

Been watching tons of high stakes episodes, god I love that show, that and the main event 2008 episodes are really great viewing, always cheer me up. I can and do watch them for literally hours.

I have been playing a lot of cash, mainly on the site that was my first love, Pokerstars. I have 30% rakeback deals on other sites, but I just love the stars software. Although once I step up a level and/or start multi-tabling seriously, I will be moving over to another softer site where I get 30% rakeback.

Had a mad rollercoaster session, will submit a few hands to highlight what a crazy session it was.

http://www.pokerhand.org/?3265256 (standard beat, i got it all in pre with KK, guy hits two outer, but just posted this to remind myself, I didn't tilt and still had a winning session!.

http://www.pokerhand.org/?3265245 (pretty sick hand, but previous hands with the player, I was never folding, especially after turn)

http://www.pokerhand.org/?3265249 (Sickness!!!!!! Sometimes steam calls pay u well (Disclaimer do not try this at home, if i did not hit big I was finished with the hand, I got lucky, u need that sometimes ;))

Very surprised I did not tilt off when I took beats, and lost buy ins, kept the head and just played the hours. Result was a decent profit in the last few weeks from cash.

On the tournament front, played a couple of times live at local casino, FT but no cashes to speak of. Not really played any tourneys online.

Only played the pacific poker 10k euro birthday ones, 10 euros to play, gets 4-500 runners, and they add 10k! MASSIVE EV+, so im plan on playing the rest of them until the promo ends.

Plans..................

I had planned to sattelite into the GCBPT Teeside tourney, but stuff has came up that weekend, so looks likely that I am going to have to give it a miss.

On a positive note, the Aberdeen International Open is back, I plan on playing the following events.

Thursday the 30th October:- 8pm - £50 + £5 NL Texas with 1 add-on/rebuy

Saturday 1st November:- £200+(One £200 addon/OR rebuy) So essentially a £400 two day, slow structure main event.

There is a PLO game on Friday, I may play this depending how I feel, however the new Bond film comes out on the same night, I may go and see that and get a rest before the main event.

So for the rest of the month, focus totally on the Aberdeen games and taking my A-game there. I have had a £2k cash at the venue before, so hopefully better that this time.

Good luck at the tables.
