This is probably the most incredible blog title I will ever have so relish it.

The last few days have been going pretty well poker-wise. I have been running badly at lower stakes and well at high stakes so poker is an easy game clearly. I've also been pretty satisfied with my sessions (almost every aspect of them) so I'm excited.

Unfortunately, I busted in the WCOOP main event and "only" netted $8k (busted 134 out of 2185), but I am still struggling to come to terms with the fact that that tournament might have been my best shot ever at winning a 1.5M+ 1st place prize and I didn't come through.

As for Leggo, I think you should hang around a week or so .

Here are a few hands from the last couple days:

fwiw, my statement was not an opinion.

i'm not trying to be negative, i think 1 is really good and the others are okay, just to balance my responses and remain unexploitable.

I am not smart enough to make a relish/salsa joke .

I also see that the converter screwed up hand 2, he folded after a while.

shootaa - I got him to fold an Ace 1000%, if not more.

Hand 3 is heavily read-based and exactly what I wanted to do.
