Long, Swingy Session

I set another record for hands played today: 1350. I only managed to make $45 but I ran pretty poorly and I definitely tilted some. It's an accomplishment that I even finished in the green. As for the session, it was very swingy and makes for a nice graph and some heartburn:

Here's an image to show how I was running:

This doesn't take into the effect of the times I got out-flopped and just got it in bad. It only measure how I ran at points I was all in.

AK #1
AK #2
This guy was absolutely raping my AK on great flops for me. In the first hand, I was positive he had a weaker Ace so I decided to bet all three streets because I knew I could get value from them. He got lucky and 3 outered me but it happens. In the second hand, he again hit another 3 outer but by the time he raised me, there was too much in the pot and not enough in his stack to get away from it.

This hand tilted me
The way this guy played it seemed like a flush draw or something like A8, so I of course snap called and he flipped over 82. Needless to say, the little bit of tilt I went on was probably caused by this.

Good Hand
Four betting this flop with TT may seem pretty awful, but this guy was really bad. My read was good and had him drawing to two outs.

Nice 3 barrel
I really loved this hand because I really felt I knew where this guy was at in the hand, and I knew he was decent enough to think before acting. I really felt he had a medium pair like 77/88 and this was a great spot to bluff. I got two very nice cards on the turn and river to apply pressure with and after tanking the river, he folded.

I also played around with PAHud today and I figured out how to get the stats off of the betting bar. Now I can use PAHud again, and I think it will really help out a lot. At the moment, I am just assuming everyone is bad and a calling station if they aren't multi-tabling (usually true) but now I will be able to really filter. I can also figure who to continuation bet less and who to press. I still need to work on playing at my best during long sessions like this one. I will probably try to play about the same length tomorrow so we'll see how that goes...
