Another good day at the tables. Played 3,6$ and a bit 5,10$ 10 handed and i knew awful player there. Made about $350 from less than an hours play.
Tourneys:
$55 turbo wsop sub got nowhere
$100 mansion, got deep again but finished about 100th/640 (pays to 81) when i gambled calling an allin on my bb from a big stack sb with A3std. His A9 kicker played and i busted which was fair enough.
$100 small multi , came 2nd for $540. Doubled up 67 vs Q8std heads up to stay in. Then split AQ vs A10 and lost A8 vs QJ both to win so i guess fair enough although the Q8 was a very dodgy call imo.
To sum up, about $550 up on the day which is very good. Seem to be very steady at the moment and still with chances of big wins at same time. Definitely finding it useful to only start playing 8, 9 or even 10pm as i look forward to it a bit more. 2am now, probably finish although may glance at the cash tables again to see if tempted.

Pokergods Say Yes
Not really in mood to play much today, but what i did play came good.
30 minutes cash on 2,4$ , only 1 table also. Came off about $200 up.
One $109 small multi win only which i won for $1400.
I should also mention i had 4 preflop allins in that multi and won all 4 :) , reverse variance is good: 10s vs A6off (out if lost) , 44 vs AQ (crippled if lost) , AK vs A5 and KQ vs J8std to take out 3rd and 2nd when monster stack.
I knew the mini run wouldnt last ;)

Pokergods Say No
It seems as ive only played 2 tournaments today and i failed to win all 3 preflop allins i had.
AK vs AQstd split, AQ vs 55 lost and AQstd vs A9off lost.
The first was in a small $100 multi and i also lost a big pot to put me top few allin 33 vs K10 on a 10,10,3,5 board when a king rivered.
The other 2 were at the later stage of mansion. 1st pot was to have gone about 50th/160 then the 2nd a couple of hands later was only for 10xbb after i was left crippled.
On the plus side at least this mini ( i hope mini ) preflop allin run im on is not on the cash tables. Obviously its often smaller amounts if u r preflop allin on them anyway.
Anyway tournament preflop allins now reads lost 7 out of last 8 and split other, thank god for deepstacked poker :)

A Tiring Mansion Game
Woke up before midday so decided to give the $100k a whirl. Progressed well with nearly all my hands holding up. Didnt make too many plays as it was so loose there werent many spots. Ended up finishing 26th for $600 on this pot.
I have 24k and the blinds are 1600,3200:
early position big chip raises to 7200 and im next to act and make it 18k to look stronger than an allin. i have 10s but he flat calls (real sign of a donk, chance he fold after flop maybe lol)
flop is Ax xs xs and the 6k left goes in and he has Ks9s !!!. Of course he hits the flush and his ridiculous call preflop is rewarded.
sick way to bust. Looking at it the proper way i couldnt really have got a better spot than that but its annoying to lose to a muppet call after 4hrs all the same.
pot would have put me 8th/26 on 54k :( .
Lost about 700$ last night on 3,6$. Included losing a 1000$ pot top trips vs flopped straight which i didnt improve on. Mayb made about 200$ or so on 2,4$ cash alongside mansion this afternoon.
Evening Update:
Played some cash and ended up losing that $200 profit from earlier but finished 2nd/11 in a small $100 multi for $480 despite losing all 5 preflop allins in the game !
A5 vs QJ , AQ vs 710 , KQstd vs AK , A8 vs AK and AQ vs AK .

Saturday Summary
Played mansion 100$ and lost a 3400 preflop pot at 25,50 99 vs J9off ! which left me crippled on 1k and i never recovered. Standard stuff really from whats seen most days. Had intended to put in a long cash session to see really how different it is on a Saturday night at the cash tables. Went on 3,6 and 2,4$ but after just under 2 hours i stopped for personal reasons but had made 900$ in that time running well and getting paid well. A couple of examples below.
2,4$ 10 handed im in bb and a late mid postion min raises. i take a flop with 10,6std and the flop comes 10,6,2. He chk raise his $12 bet to $32 which he calls. Turn is a 7 and i bet about $60 which is flat called. River is a 3 and i bet $180 into the $200 pot which is again called. I check the hand history and he had A10off.
3,6$ 4 or maybe 5 handed im in the sb with 10s and the bb is an aggressive calling station. I raise to $12 which he calls. Flop is J,10,8 and i bet $20 which is called. The turn is a second diamond but a fairly harmless 5 and i chk raise him. He had bet 48$ and i overbet and made it $140 hoping he would figure weakness. River is a juicy 5 , i consider the check but i dont put him on a draw so hoping he has a part of it i move allin for my last $300. He calls and mucks 10,7off.
On another note it appears my horse may be running in a month or so as ive copied this from the linked page above. "As long as everything continues to go smoothly, we can hopefully start her racing career off in mid-May.”
