back on the prowl

i did play my first poker session for this month yesterday. There are quite a bit reasons why it took me so long to get back on the tables and one of them is that my database crashed and i don't have a clue about postgre sql (somehow i cannot connect to the postgre servers..) right now i use a new access database and played around 500 hands holdem and i guess 150 hands Pot Limit Omaha (PLO 50).

i played some hu against someone who tilted on me . he called every single 3bet with hands like J9, T8 and called down whenever he hit just something. i adapted by reraising very light..

biggest pot

i thought that he would call an allin with any pair because i knew he would think that this is a bluff given our history but i wanted him to fold those holdings, thus i made a bet around pot and committed myself.
as i saw his hand i knew i was deadly wrong and that he would never fold anything (maybe 2x) to me in this spot, regardless if i shoved or just bet pot..

i like big tilts

PJ was tilting all his money away after he donked into me several times, got raised and outdrawn or bluffed out in every single spot. he lost a lot of money to a friend of mine 2 orbits ago and he was on hypertilt - i was already cheering as i saw the flop and him donking again. there is something interesting, looking at the outcome of this hand: i seldomly see people like him shoving air. they shove bottom pair or small pockets and even if you know he's got little or nothing you cannot call with ace high most of the times.
i think 99 is good enough against him and even though it's a dry board i just cannot fold here. he will sometimes show up with Kx, maybe TT or random twopairs but i think given our history and his megatilt it was the correct play to call.


i don't have a database that supports omaha but i think i will change this and support my blog with some omaha hands. i really like this game and it's good to have an alternative to holdem if tables aren't juicy.

btw: still no message from prima network or battlefield. i think that's very unprofessional and i feel like i won't see my money again..
