I'm not going to post graphs every night (don't worry), but tonight's was pretty crazy.

I played 1001 hands. Overall, I ran WELL BELOW average, which is extremely encouraging.

In the middle of the graph, note me getting stacked THREE TIMES in the span of about 6 minutes - all at the same table and ALL with overpairs losing to overpairs that were one better. That was a first for me.

Right before the nice spike upwards is when I started 5 tabling. I usually only play 4. I wasn't on tilt or anything - just saw some good tables and felt like getting more hands in. I have to say, I liked it. I think it FORCED me to focus more and play just a hair tighter.

I stacked a guy when I flopped a set and worked my way from a session low of down $2000 all the way up to $900ish to the good. In my last two orbits, I lost a couple of big hands. The big drop was my AJ vs AA - I flopped top two pair and he flopped top set and didn't raise ONCE until the turn - not even preflop with two other players in the hand. And my final hand of the night - literally with me sitting out of all the other tables and UTG, I had AQs and the flop came Qxx. I called his reraise preflop in position (maybe a mistake), and then called his flop bet... I folded when he shoved on the turn, SURE he had KK..... and he did. So even though I lost $300ish on the hand, I was happy with how I played it.

Anyway, after all this rambling, the moral of the story is that after one hell of a roller coaster ride, I finished up $40.60 for the night. LOL - I probably earned that much in rakeback!!!
