On the poker front, I don't think I'm going to hit 35K hands this week. I put in a good session yesterday, but I'm feeling a little unfocused today. I also found out I have something to do tomorrow and we're having guests over Saturday and Sunday. I feel like such a slacker. But other than self-imposed "short-term goals," there are many options with respect to treating poker as work. On "off"-days, I can watch a few videos, do some research, or play some other games instead (like Rush 1/2, which for me takes a little less thought).
POKER - INTRESTING HAND
Oddly, I haven't played in a lot of interesting hands this week. This comes to mind because it set the new record for how much money I lost on a bluff. I only had a few orbits on villain, and I think his stats were like 20/10, so I just assumed he was "normal." I really couldn't see how he could limp with a PP as high as 77 or 88 from MP, so I put him on a 1 pair type hand or missed draw that I could take him off. I have an overpair in this spot a lot, and the 4s pairing counterfeits any 2 pair hand he could have. Anyway, it just shows the importance of being able to put people on a CORRECT range.
