Sorry Felicia..

Well not much to report today. Poker is still downhill for me. Not looking like it is going to turn around anytime soon. Had a couple of nice hands in the Blogger NL. AA twice in a row brought me up to $60, and losing to a JJQQQ boat when I had trip Q's brought me back down to $30. Ended up busting out once, and then doubling up off of a bad read. I was playing Felicia. She made the correct move of betting the pot with her AA. All in. I thought she was bluffing. Good read, eh? So my K3 was up against AA and I get extremely lucky and spike a 3 on the river. Sorry again Felicia. Seems like I am applogizing to a different Female blogger every night. April?

I tried out O8 today and lost a buyin. I enjoyed it. The basic strategy in the book I bought was have an Ace or don't bother playing. It was a little more involved than that, but that was the gist. I highly reccomend the book as it touches on other subjects we all know but always need reminding. Like discipline and the long run.

I did actually recover it playing 2/4 Hold Em, however that did not last long. I ended the day down about $100. I do not know if I will ever feel like I am winning again. *sigh*. Oh well. I never wanted to make money playing Poker anyways. *sigh*. I can see how this "hobby" could be a frustrating living.

Keep your head up, and just play well. Slow and steady wins the race. Cliche, but true. Good luck!

As I'm reading this... and I mean AS I'M READING THIS... I get AA in the BB. I raise it up and get 4 callers. Cool.

Flop comes 3JK. Checked to me. I bet. lots of folds, and SB calls. Turn is a blank. Checked to me, I bet. SB raises. I briefly think KJ, but figure, no, just the TPTK trying to push a little. I raise back. He caps it. Shit.

River is a blank. He bets, I call.

He turns over... K3 offsuit.

You jinxed me, dude.
