I get knocked down, but I get up again (your never gonna keep me down!)

Really enjoying the rocky ride at the mo. Last night had some good fights over the blinds and today I ended up playing some really good ultra loose poker.

I was limping from position with any two cards and was lucky enough to hit a full house on the flop with Q2. One other pushed all-in but was really small stacked. This started the usual chat about how much of an idiot I was.

Knowing I'd been caught with my trousers down, I knew I had to play tight for a while. However I didn't get the chance. I got dealt pocket rockets, raised pf and got one caller. He hit trips on the flop and once again, my stack took a hit. My stack dropped to $9 so I re-loaded to the max.

Over the next 20 minutes I build my stack from $25 to $31, then I get dealt pocket aces again. This time I get all my money in the pot on the flop and they hold up to win $52 hand. The other guy hand Kings.

I know I really need to still play tight, so over the following hour i only play three hands. On all three occations they were small pocket pairs, on all three occations I limp preflop and hit trips on the flop and on two of the occations my small bets lead to nothing as the others fold. On the third occasion the other guy calls my bet on the flop, but folds to the one ont he turn.

All in all, not a bad session. Ended up with $64 (but had to reload with $16). This gives me $23 profit.

8 hours play. 180 seater sng’s = -$26.40, 9 & 45 seater sng’s = $0, cash tables = +$40
