Bored/hyper/hungry

Carrying on my fickle attitude toward poker, I am playing at this moment 25NL with 16BI so not really enough ideally, but it's fucking amazing how many more FPPs you get when playing it. Usually in the (tragic) event I do play online cash, It's 10NL 6-max, but 3 tabling 25NL 9 max will surely do the trick to clear the full tilt bonus this holiday. Just actually can't wait now to earn some rakeback and proper bonus money instead of pissing around on the 400 mark.

It's something new and interesting, and if that's the case, I play so much better. There are still morons here too, which is always useful when I start to play shit. I've been watching monsieur blake play 50/1 over the last few weeks, very tight-agressive and he rakes in the profit, so I've decided to play pretty much everything fast, and fold speculative (beautiful) hands like low/mid suited connectors, and so far it's going ok (i.e not down) Making some ok reads aswell- Put some bloke who pretty much min raised my raise from the SB on 66-99 and it went thus.

Just been round postering it up today with Tom around the colleges, should be a good Mary's contingent down there for the festival on tuesday after seeing a few mates from back home in town. Also durham regatta this weekend, which will be the last rowing i'll ever do :) 8 years of rowing gets a bit tedious. Bring on the martial arts!!!

i dont think you played the river well here your bet doesnt seem to have a purpose as the villan only calls when he has you beat. personally i like the check call here but its not a very nice situation to be in with bottom pair. You could consider firing the turn and river to push him off weak hands.
