Just got back from a tough live session to say the least. During the first 6 hours I was down -$320 playing 1-2. This was the most I've been down in a single session since I moved out here and perused poker full time. The money was all lost as two flopped sets were destroyed by straights. Really nothing I could do during that time. At the 6 hour mark I took a break and tried to regroup. I tried to look at it as a positive. I was interested in how I would respond to running that badly during 6 hours, and losing so much with 2 monster sets flopped.
I came back from 1-5 a.m and ended up winning +$240, so only down -$80 on the night. I was thinking about trying to stay on the last table past 5 a.m until I at least broke even. It would have most likely happened if I was ever dealt a top 20% hand again. But I was incredibly card dead the last two hours like usual and I didn't feel much would change. Also I was damn tired. Who goes 10 hours+ without being dealt pocket aces live anyways?
I'm planning to put in at least one or two more long live sessions before I take off for the holidays. The 22nd and 23rd are likely candidates. Those days should have decent action live with so many people on vacation.
Tomorrow should be a nice change of pace. Not forcing myself to play live on Sunday should be refreshing. I also have that date with the girl I couldn't even pick out of a line-up. I'll give it a 5% chance she's good looking enough to continue going out with, yeah I'm a pessimist. My fault for being that drunk at the club I suppose.
I also want to put in some good volume online tomorrow. Online has been a nightmare since the last $1500 bonus I cleared, so I might keep it to a pathetic 4 tables until I win at least 2 buy-ins if that ever happens. At least 16 hours online from Sunday-Tuesday, gogo! Fucking online.
