Day 5 Update

Permanent Linkby Sean_in_NJ on Tue Jan 09, 2007 10:56 pm GMT

Following last night's entry, I decided I wasn't done for the night, so I sat down again at the old .02/.04 FL game. I managed to grind my way back to a small profit, bringing the bankroll to $1.61. It could've been better, but I'm still having a bit of difficulty in knowing which hands I'm going to win before I commit my money. I folded my option in the BB twice, only to find out I would've scooped a big pot. I may return to checking in those situations, since I may be able to control the inherent -EV involved whenever I see a flop.

This afternoon after work, I decided to experiment a bit with multi-tabling. Sitting two 6-max tables with an .80 buy-in on each, playing good, solid, sound, reliable, safe, prudent, responsible, steady, sure, tried-and-true, dependable poker netted me an additional $1.45. While on the surface this may seem the way to go from here on out, I still had much difficulty dodging every losing hand; and, the rapid clicking between two game windows made it difficult to focus on porn as much as I'd like. So single-tabling will be the norm.

As a result of my improved play today, I'm going to reinstall PokerOffice and look at my numbers for the last 300 hands. I expect my bb/100 to be much better after removing the losing session I logged yesterday. I don't think it's terribly important to look at those in the long run, since I plan on folding those hands before I get into trouble anyway.

Bankroll: $3.06
$$$ to Go: $2.94
