Catching Up

As I've been a bit lax in keeping the blog up to date I'd appreciate if everyone can post their bankrolls for the past couple of weeks as of Monday morning. Guesses are better than no figure at all. I do have some figures from a couple of weeks ago so should be able to get back up to speed soon.

A few hands from lunch that I can post. I bought into a 50NL table for $35. After folding for a while I eventually raised from the cutoff with 45o and was reraised to gave it up. After folding for a bit more I then played a hand from the cutoff with 89o and had two callers. The flop was K76 and I bet pot and got one caller. The turn was a beautiful 9 and I bet out for 3/4 pot for $8 which left the perfect amount for an under pot sized push on the river. I'm guessing I was up against two pairs or trips that saw me as overplaying AK or maybe it even was an overplayed big slick he held - who knows.

Now with a stack of $54 I almost immediately ran into AA and raised and got a caller from the big blinds who had $18 behind. A dry flop of Jxx with no draws and I faced a pot sized bet of $4.50. I called and another nothing card showed. He pushed for his final $12. I called and my pocket rockets were way behind his flopped trip Jacks. Should I have put him on trips here and folded that last bet? I suspect KK and QQ would have reraised. I was expecting it to be AJ or trips.

Now down once again (this is all in a 15minute session) I managed to climb back up to positive territory. Playing four handed I raise once again in the cutoff with a borderline hand this time K6s. My raise has two callers. The flop comes J62 with two hearts giving me the flush draw. One check and the remaining short stack makes an overbet push for $10. I think I'm likely to be ahead with probably 14 outs twice so call. The turn is a six and he turns over absolutely nothing for a pure bluff. Lunch is over and I add $15 to my bankroll.
