KING OF THE WORLD #1
June 17th, 2007 lifesagrindIn an effort to display my cash game idiocy to the world (while possibly learning something along the way) I’m introducing two new features to the blog. King Of The World, and The Biggest Loser.
The day after I play a cash session I will revue the Poker Tracker numbers and then post either the biggest winning hand or the biggest losing hand depending on which is greater. Yesterday it happened to be a winner.
Staying true to my work (kinda) I started the day at a 25NL table. Within an hour I was up three buy ins and decided to take some of that money and buy in to a 50NL game. About forty minutes later that buy in was gone and I was back at a 25 table. I managed to take a little more money and ended the day up around $60. I don’t know why but I can’t get a handle on the 50NL tables. It seems from looking at the histories that I’m bluffing way to much but I don’t know why I keep doing it.
Anyway let’s move onto my KING OF THE WORLD hand.
I could try to justify my play here but from an odds standpoint I really had no business staying in the hand after the SB pushes. I really felt I had the best flush draw and I just knew the button would call based on his past play. In the moment I thought the call was right. Feel free to rip in with constructive criticism.
