Minor brag, yet near beat

Post  Mondogarage on Wed Sep 17, 2008 2:47 pm

Last night was my regular online poker night, and I ended up playing in five tournaments -- both Daily Doubles, a $5.50 PLO8, a $5R MTT at Bodog, and a $10+1 5k guarantee, also at Bodog.

The brag is that I ended up cashing in four of the five (the exception being one of the Daily Doubles, when I shoved QQ into AA on a low flop, but the preflop action should have indicated KK or AA to me...)

The simultaneous brag beat was crashing out of two MTTs in 14th place in each one -- oh so close to final tables....

Instead of two near final tables and a 5th, I should have had three final tables and at least one Top 3 finish, argh.

Still, I have to say it was probably my single best session of online poker ever, if you look at consistency over the entire night of play. I only had to suckout once to win a hand the entire night, and managed to induce big payoffs on most of my biggest hands.

I may have to try HPT after all, but since this weekend is out, we'll see how next Tuesday's online play stands in comparison. If I can play as solid and run as well as last night, count me in.

The other brag is, I recently withdrew 80% of my Bodog roll, but have now nearly tripled what I left on there, after last night.
