Goals for this session:
1. COntinue to dig at player types as quickly as possible
2. Identify points where I'm falling into B or C game traps
3. Review the session
How do I feel:
Pretty great, I could grind NL50 tonight.
Time: 8:20pm
1. Not bad. Getting good early reads on some occasions
2. I didn't feel like I played any B or C game tonight
3. Reviewed some hands, really nothing interesting, except for a couple of read based call downs which where both correct calls.
Played some NL50 after feeling good. I ended up playing well I thought, but hitting very little. At one point I had to fold 99 to a big 3 bet (he had AA, but I would have flopped a 9 and won a big 3 way pot), next hand flopped a full house versus a donk who raised everyhing but folded, then would have hit top two pair, but again had to fold PF and the donk and solid player got it in with worse. Then I hit nothing for 2 hours :) Fortunately had 2 players spaz off rivers to me, otherwise it would have been a breakeven nigh with no pot over nearly anything. Overall though my hand reading was going well, situation reading seemed quite solid, and I was getting a pretty good impression of who were the big donks and who were the solid regs 3 betting for value or double barrelling with top pair etc.
I just don't really feel scared about any situation right now, because if it's bad for me I can quit the game, but usually I understand it, even if I don't like it. Like basically, you can almost categorise people into post flop bettors that bet only for value, bet too thinly or bluff too much. Apart from that preflop and cbets are all in the stats, so it's just a case of watching later streets to see how people play certain hands after the flop is seen.
Anyway, eventually I'll feel confident enough in how it's all going to add table 2 to the mix. I'll probably just play NL50 when I'm feeling very solid and not tired.
