The ramblings and mumblings of a wannabe poker pro

$1 Games Suck

Just had a hugely bad session this morning, failed to cash in each of my $1 / $2 games. Safe to say I played shit in my first heads-up of the day, and arguably under par in my 2nd, but these games really do suck at times.

Having people re-raise with top pair, 2nd kicker, to then hit two pair, or to call an all-in re-raise with AT only to get miracle cards to make a straight.  I’m frustrated as hell, but with double frequent player points on offer I can’t call it a day, instead giving myself a hour or two to rest and recompouse before I get back to some games. Hopefully I’ll earn some profit as well as points, I certainly need some after my last two sessions performance.

For the un-initiated Full Tilt Poker is offering a new $200 bonus to apologize for server problems, so I’m aiming to get my Poker Stars bonus completed ASAP to allow me to maximize the new bonus on Full Tilt, which is far easier as I’m happier playing limit razz and then 90 man turbo’s on Full Tilt then the standard Sit ‘n Go’s I wade through on Poker Stars these days.
