Summary of June 10th, 2004 DAY 1

I didn't get to play as much as I wanted today but I did get in a few small sessions. Started out the day with 3 $20 buy in SNG's and lost all 3 of them! Talk about ouch. Finished in 7th, 8th, and 10th place. Not a great start.

After taking a loss on all 3 of the SNG's I played a 20 minute session of 1/2 limit at a 6 max table. When I quit for lunch I was up $26.45. I don't play very many limit games these days and the terrible play here was quite refreshing. I love the fact that most people have no idea how to play a short table. They either show too much aggression with weak hands or not enough on their strong hands. I know this was a very low limit but the higher limits are hardly any better.

After lunch I spent some time with my wife then sat back down for a little poker. I decided to try another $20 SNG and someone from the forum actually stopped by to talk while I was playing. I ended up finishing 1st in this one which took some of the sting out of the 3 losses from earlier in the day. My son got home from daycare soon after I finished this tourney so I ended the session to spend time with him and visit my parents.

The last session I played was in the evening and I decided to give the $30 3 table sit and go's a run. The first one I played I had built a stack of around $2000 chips when I was dealt KK. I raise it to $600. Everyone folds but 1 who moves all in for around $1500. I call and he turns over AA. Now I could have folded to the all in bet and tried to make a comeback with my $1400 chips but in these tourneys he could have easily held any pocket pair, AK, AQ, or even AX. I did manage to build my $500 remaining chips back to $2000 when I'm dealt QQ with 15 players remaining. I raise 700 and someone moves all in again. I reluctantly called to see them turn over KK. Now this hand I would normally fold to any respectable player but the tables had combined recently and I had no experience with his play. I called feeling I may be behind and I was right. Should have thrown it away, instead I went out 15th.

I decided to enter one more $30 3 table tourney before I called it a night. Didn't take notes on this tourney but I ended up 3rd winning $180.

Starting balance for June 10th $807.95
Ending balance $960.40
Profit/Loss for the day +$152.45

SNG= Single Table No Limit Tourney.
