I've played a couple sessions lately, including a bit of a cooler on Tuesday followed by a solid 5.5 BI heater last night. On the month I'm still only running at 2.0 ptBB/100, but that's life. My volume is on pace for something like 75k hands I think, though I doubt I'll make it quite that high, especially since I'll be spending much of this weekend in Banff with the girlfriend.

I don't really have much content for this post, unfortunately. I'm trying to stay proactive in analyzing my game and always trying to find the perfect line for a given spot. There was one hand last night I wasn't happy with how I played (despite winning a $190 pot), but I don't have the HH handy. Short story was I had AA versus villain's KK which he smooth called preflop (this hand would have played itself had he 3-bet). After c/ring me on the flop I turned passive, despite the flop being two-tone. The villain was running something like 15/7/1.3, and I didn't have any reads. Thankfully, he valuetowned himself for most of his stack (we were 130BB deep) as I took c/c lines on the turn and river. I think based on his range, I should probably have taken a c/r line and jammed the turn. 3-betting the flop is probably also better than my actual line.

I scored a PS3 yesterday, thanks to a company rewards program. The only game I picked up was a mediocre RPG called Enchanted Arms because the price was right. We'll see if it can hold my attention after I'm done with Persona 3, although FFTA2 comes out pretty soon, and that will most definitely eat up some of my gaming time. I should also mention that I ordered Ace on the River by Barry Greenstein for 2,000 FPPs, which I'm excited to read. Barry is one of the most respected people in poker for the reason, and I'm told this book teaches some often overlooked things about the game.
