Overall I am pleased with my game. I was 3 out of 5 IMT with 1 bubble and a 5th place. I won a total 16.76. I have added a new weapon to my game. The pocket rockets. I generally would play them with a 2 C bet. Since I have started to played them aggressive. I am getting good results. I understand will get called from time to time, but it is worth the risk. In the last game I used this play and again positive result. I am still trying to fine tune this play but I think I am in the right direction.

Shipping to Sand 16.76

Here is my play from last game:

Sure would've been nice if he hit his set on the turn or river

Sorry gang, no play from me this week, didn't really have time. Although I did go play live on Saturday and wish I had stayed home and played, as I ran terribly, getting stacked twice (ran bottom set into middle set, and the 2nd nut flush into the nut flush). It was just one of those days.

I will be able to get some play in this upcoming week for sure for the tic, so I guess I'll roll over this week's action to next week.

OUCH

Gl this week

Ouch indeed! I assume this is either 2/5 or 5/10 so either way I'd die a lil inside.
4nl on merge would be a lil slice of heavin after a run like that.

Transferred $5.79 to Sandtrap this afternoon.
