I had my driving test yesterday, I failed. I'm not going to dwell too much on failure. I like to think there is no such thing, rather only what you do and don't do. What you don't do you invariably regret more than the outcome of whatever you do do so every 'do' in a sense is a success. Yay for success.

Lately I've been very lazy with poker. After moving in to the new place (pics to come when I find my camera) I've basically been a complete bum. Anyway this has involved eating out every day, going out probably 4-5 nights of the week and keeping terrible sleeping hours. This can't continue so I'm setting a target of 30k hands for the month (played a miserable 4k so far). Bearing in mind I don't play any more than 6 tables nowadays (and usually 4 or less) this is a decent few hours. I'm also going to try my hardest to get in shape, I was doing quite well in the month leading up to moving but it's gone rapidly downhill since then.

I have a few interesting things lined up for leggo. Firstly I'm starting private coaching again and will be coaching PLO as well as NLHE for anyone that is interested. I won't be making any PLO videos. Secondly, I will have a NL video out by the end of the month. Thirdly, I have two strategy articles lined up for the forum, one is psychology related and the other is to do with live poker. I'm writing all this down here to a) keep you all informed, and allow any suggestions. b) set myself some sort of timeplan for doing things, I figure if I write it in my blog I have to prioritise it a little!

I watched In Bruges the other day, it's a great film and I highly recommend it. Colin Farrell is immense.

One more thing, obligatory calldown hh. Gotta put these high stakes hu sng players in their place sometimes:

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, 1030 Tournament, 10/20 Blinds (2 handed) - Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

BB (t1610)
Hero (SB) (t1390)

Hero's M: 46.33

Preflop: Hero is SB with J, 10
Hero bets t40, BB calls t20

Flop: (t80) 6, Q, 5 (2 players)
BB checks, Hero bets t50, BB raises to t175, Hero calls t125

Turn: (t430) 3 (2 players)
BB bets t285, Hero calls t285

River: (t1000) A (2 players)
BB bets t890, Hero calls t890 (All-In)

Total pot: t2780

Results:
Hero had J, 10 (high card, Ace).
BB had 7, 8 (high card, Ace).
Outcome: Hero won t2780

Gl all,
Rob.

youngboss: I don't normally pure float like this particularly in hu sngs where one post flop mistake can really f your tournament equity. Thought I'd try it here though since his sizing was a bit inconsistent with how he'd been playing so far and a bunch of gameflow reasons that I can't really quantify. I'd also seen him 3b 44 earlier which leads me to believe he'd prob be 3bing 55/66. As I think about it now this might actually remove some strong Qx's from his range too.
Turn I think he continues with all his c/r range and I'm ahead of most of his semi bluffs other than nut/2nd nfd. River removes some Qx value shoves from his range and also the possibility of nfd but it also completes the flush. I'd have to do some work on combinations and his frequencies with different parts of his range (what he does on the flop with small fd's will be key) to say if river is a call but he's def jamming all his air that c/r the flop and got this turn riv combo. Interestingly it looks like the nut card for him to bluff but I'd probably be more likely to fold an offsuit A.
Oh and aside from all this I have the Jh blocker ffs!

Bonfire_28: I don't want my PLO opponents to watch my videos and know what I'm thinking.
