[x] Hit and run session

Haha, good lil 500 hands (starting around hand 5000)





This hand helped (first big suck of the month). BB was a 50/5 drooler to this point so I didn't give his cold-call of my 3bet any thought.

I'm pretty happy about my non-showdown winnings so far this month. Since I got serious into cash, the "red line" had dropped well below 0$. It looks like I'm learning to pick the good spots to apply aggression to win pots without needing the best hand.

Roll stands at $3840!!! That's definitely a new best :)

Goooooooooooooo November!!



Haha, I went thru my archives and found my 2008 goals post.

Some of them are pretty lol and illustrate my lacking knowledge when it comes to cash. Some of my old posts in general were pretty terrible around January (haven't gone further back in the archives than that yet). Surprising how much I've improved in just under a year.
A highlight of the goals:

1. Quit Smoking [fail. I won't be quitting any time soon.]
2. Increase roll to be sufficient for 50NL [haha definite pass and then some]
3. Final Table at least one MTT [pass]
4. Run at 10BB/100 or better [if you include my mostly terrible 20k hands of 25NL, I've run at 1.94ptbb (3.88BB/100), if you track from when I stopped sucking, I've run 6.25ptbb (12.5BB/100)]
5. Get better at dealing with beats [mostly pass. occasional fails]
6. Increase Readership [Pass. while my readership isn't huge, it's definitely a darn sight better than it was at the beginning of this year]

Target Bankroll: $1500 [hahahahahahahahahaha]

Just thought that was kinda neat.
