The Good, the Bad and the Ugly
The Good:
I played pretty well in the Titan Poker new player freeroll Saturday night. I finished 12th out of about 280 and made $10.
The bad:
$10 barely makes up for my horrible day at the tables.
The ugly:
-$93 for the day
My day basically looks like this-
1/2: -148
1/2 6max: +45
Freeroll: +10
I keep getting pummelled by loose players hitting their longshots.
Highlights include this hand:
Ultimate Bet 1/2 Hold'em (10 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx
Preflop: Scottwire is UTG+2 with 8h, 8s.
2 folds, Scottwire calls, 1 fold, MP2 calls, 2 folds, Button calls, SB completes, BB checks.
Flop: (5 SB) Js, 8c, 7d (5 players)
SB checks, BB checks, Scottwire bets, MP2 folds, Button calls, SB folds, BB calls.
Turn: (4 BB) Qh (3 players)
BB checks, Scottwire bets, Button raises, BB calls, Scottwire 3-bets, Button caps, BB calls, Scottwire calls.
River: (16 BB) Th (3 players)
BB bets, Scottwire calls, Button calls.
Final Pot: 19 BB
Results in white below:
Button has Qd Kh (one pair, queens).
BB has 3h 9c (straight, queen high).
Scottwire has 8h 8s (three of a kind, eights).
Outcome: BB wins 19 BB.
I keep getting manhandled like this as of late. Outside of a couple of good tables, this has been what its like for me the last few days. Hopefully it is just variance. I don't feel like I'm making a ton of mistakes. Just all their draws hitting and none of mine coming through. Guess we'll see as we go.
Sportsbetting was a disaster too.
went 0-3 today
-4.42 overall 29-31
Hopefully tomorrow will be a better day :)
May the flop be with you.

I was getting bad beat after bad beat on Titan playing limit on the $1/$2. So now I've switched over to their SNG's and tourneys. I've won 2 out of 3 single table SNG's and finished ITM (final table) in a 100-man tournament today. You can't do much about the fish in Limit but in NL you can push em around a lot better.
I'm actually starting to get my bankroll back up at Titan. If I stay lucky I might manage to clear all of the 100% match bonus. That sure takes a while to grind that out.
