progress

Last few days have been really swingy for me, been playing some higher stakes when big fish are online.

Played a guy named BROKLEHSKER (or something along those lines) at 2k non turbos.  While i dont normally play non turbos, I felt this guy was  v. exploitable so worth taking a shot.  Unfortunatly, got in aces vs kings pre flop and got 2 outed. Standard but cruel.  Got run over the next matches with no cards.  Against these opponents who call everything, its hard to win if you cant make pairs.

I did have some success however vs a player named PQuest.  Most passive player ive ever played, literally folded down to 300 chips every match.  Went 2-0 vs him.

At the end of the night i open sat a 2k because there were a lot of fish on.  I ended up getting sat by HU legend M@D@M@D@NE who has crushed me in the past.  I ended up winning and was particularly proud of my line on this hand.
