DAY 3

Day 3 of my blog and I’m really enjoying it! I woke up around 830pm an d powered on my computer, put the kettle and had a coffee. I got tempted to play some poker, after it all it is my day off.

I choose to play Titan today and I played on just one table and do some work at the same time. Boy talk about bad beat City. I’d lost nearly $100 in 1 hour. I felt like slamming my fist into the monitor but instead I knuckled down and 2.5 hours later I closed Titan Poker without having won or lost anything. 3.5 hours and no payday!

Players are tight on Titan and its fold, fold and more folds. I’m not playing Queen10’s or Jack9’s and I am folding the ace unless it’s accompanied by another Royal. Titan doesn’t seem as much fun as other rooms. You hardly see a flop and when you do your very unlikely to see the turn (unless your ALL IN). It’s very aggressive here and I don’t think it suits my play.

I next get on the tables at 8pm and I only have one hour to spare….Whoooopieee in that hour I make $60 with some great play and sprinkling of good old fashioned luck.

I’m off out now to watch the footie. My team lost and I head over to www.paynorake.com, a sight I love because it re-kindled my love for poker and because I’m also on a 55% rakeback deal. Takes the edge of bad beats J

I’m only going to play for 30 minutes and the table I join is full of action, crazy betting and ALL INS, this is gonna be fun. Hmmm, one player is annoying me because he is raising every single hand and that’s one of my pet hates. Guys raising with a J2 suited for pete’s sake. I have had enough of him and call his raise with a Q8. Queen hits the flop and I check, player raises to $5 and I move ALL IN (bad play). Guy folds but I have another caller, who has a KQ.. Damnnnnnn

I go and have a smoke to calm down and come back, put $50 on the table and im not leaving until I have won that stupid bet back. I don’t have to wait long, within 10 minutes the player who had a A10 bets $1.50 and re-raise him to $5 with a pair of POCKET ROCKETS (AA). Flop is 8, 10 A and I check, player raises to $5 and I re-raise to $15, player calls…..sweeeet. By the turn we are both in and when theres a showdon im $50 richer. I go on to make another $10 and now I’m off to bed having bed a $100 profit today and played badly on occasions.
