Poker this week

I'm trying blogging from my phone. Good week of poker. Came out ahead on cash game Tuesday. Won a home game tournament Friday and cashed in the Snoqualmie tournament today.

Hmm, apparently blogging via phone doesn't create a title.  Scratch that and stick to Twitter and Facebook via phone/text.

Session on Tuesday was good.  I nearly doubled up early with KK vs AK with all money in pre-flop.  He really thought he was racing when I four-bet!?!  Played a couple more hours and gave some back.  Some friends held a home game Friday night.  Well, I wish it was Friday night.  We were supposed to start at 9:30 but actually started at 11 (!). Without much structure and organization we kept the starting blinds for at least 90 minutes.  Good news was that I chopped the prize pool with another player at 2AM though I had a small chip lead. 

Today I probably played the best tournament poker I've played in a long time.  I had one bad read, but basically made hands, put pressure on other people, and kept winning pots.  By the time we got to the final table everyone was micro-stacking (about 2-5 BB) and the determining factors were draw for seats, getting lucky with cards, then chips, and last a touch of skill. I did poorly on the first one and wound up 8th. So I cashed twice in one day.  Not sure I've ever done that.
