Slow going

So much for 4k hands this week - I have managed just under 2k. I am just way to busy to play much poker, and even when I do have a free evening I don't seem to be able to keep up the concentration for over an hour playing 9 tables. Anyway, when I have played it has not gone great. Three times in 1 session I was down $100 and each time I bought it back to break-even, finally stopping when I was up $2.21. Apart from that I had only 2 very short sessions, and only made about $10. As well as this, A Game re-united to try to take down a big tourney but with no luck, losing about $20.

Part of the problem this week is that I have been losing quite a lot with AA, with only a 50% win record. I think I am playing them well and I know this will change with time, so I'm not pissed off. One stack I lost with AA goes like this:

- MP makes it $2 and I make it $6.50 in the SB. MP calls.
- The flop is 2-8-4
- I bet $8.50, he calls
- I plan to check-raise the turn
- The turn is a J, I check, he bets $15 and I push
- He calls with JJ. The river is another J.

But I'm happy with how I played it so nevermind. On to next week.

A hug.
