Day 2 of my Journey
Yesterday was a pretty good day. I ended at $1004 and was so happy, but today was a different story. I had to wake up super early for my classes today which was a bummer after the long night I had last night. While waiting for my Chemistry class I decided to play some Rush Poker again; worst idea. I ended up going down $500 after a couple bad beats and was about to go on tilt, which you never want to do, but I was able to pull myself together and just get out. When I got home from class i decided to play some more while working on my homework. I played some Rush Poker yet again (I'm hooked on this) and quickly made my money back plus some. After 3 hours of playing i was back up to $1100. I also decided to play in a $26 tourney and ended up getting 16th out of over 2100 entrants. I should over won a huge pot to put myself in first and most likely take down the tourney but one guy made an absolute ridiculous call on me and ended up beating the odds and beating me. Very upset ONLY made $191.27 when I could of most likely made $10k if the one hand wouldn't of ruined me. Today I've ended at $1246.75, its not bad for 2 days but it's a great disappointment after doing so well in that big tournament just to get jewed in the end. Hopefully my luck is better next time.

Wow,
ReplyDeleteNot bad for 2 day's work. I'm not much of a poker player, but would probably be worse playing online. What is your strategy when playing online, removed from all of the social and visual cues, "reading," "give-aways," etc... Do you just play strictly according to the odds, or is there still a big "social" dimension?
I'm wondering the same thing. What's your strategy?
ReplyDeleteI can't really imagine playing poker with that kind of money. I guess I just don't have the confidence. I would be so sure that I would end up losing all my money that I would inevitably do so. Oh, and I can't gamble because I'm not 21.
