Played really bad the last few days, but ended up ok. Started playing badly today but I really got back in the zone in the last 110 against RiceStud. He won 2 virtual flips to end up winning the game, but I feel I dominated the match in every way and was playing my A game.
I played a 4 man 3300 FPP sat to the Sunday Mil. Wow is that a value, I ended up losing the second match but the competition was ridiculously bad. Here are the two major hands from my experience in this.

After this the guy let me blind him out for 2 hands or whatever, and the two games ended up going 11 hands total (including the 2 "sitting out" hands). Not bad timewise, just horrible players that love to gamble in these. If you decide to play these after reading my blog, please do not sit with me in them, I would prefer to keep playing these kind of guys.
Here's the hand I lost on, this guy was pretty horrible and was donk-overbetting flops often from what I saw (I caught the 20ish hand match he played against the player before) with weak hands. Definitely think I'm ahead of his range as it is mostly made up of 2-3rd pairs and overcards.

So I will continue to play these to help boost my bankroll and my "rakeback" from these vpps. Definitely happy they are here.
Gf's dad is back in town, so playing will be rough the next few days. Usually it takes a few days for him to really annoy me (us), but he's only staying until Sunday morning so I should be fine.
Saw the new Showtime show Californiacation the other day. Great potential, David Ducheveny or whatever from X-Files is the main actor and I really enjoyed the premiere. Some other shows I've been watching lately are Flight of the Concords and a staple since season 1, Entourage. A lot of people seem to think Entourage has gone downhill, but I disagree for the most part. I really love season 1 of Entourage, and I disliked the whole Mandy Moore thing in season 2. Season 3 was average, but so far I think Season 4 has been better than 3. I could probably summarize those last 4 sentences in like 5 words, but basically I do not think it is any worse than it was the last two seasons, it might even be better.
Last but certainly not least, the husng.com coaching site is nearing completion and almost ready to open. Lots of good stuff to go along with that, I'm currently messing around with the test server that the site is on and organizing video creators so that we have a good collection of videos for the opening. Registration is free for the site and we're going to kick it off with a few free videos for players that register with the site. Also going to do a freeroll for a free month membership. More on that later.

This guy was a very bad station who would call down with a naked 3 here a lot. The river was close and I should've bet a bit more on the turn. Obviously QJ and a flush both hit the river. I can't check call profitably because he will check behind a lot of misses (I assume because he checked behind third pair and a missed flush in 3-bet pots previously). 375 on the turn is my mistake in this hand, in my opinion. I'm shoving every river profitably against his range (I think).
Here's another pretty hand from earlier today...

I ended up losing that game, he flat called a 3x raise when I had 12bb left with QTo. Beat my KTo, on a Q high flop. GG me.
Going to eat dinner w my gf at my mom's house. Might hit the driving range tonight, but unlikely. Have to watch entourage at some point and I'm going to just keep playing tonight. Might be a long one. We'll see.

Busto! Goals...
Buddy lost 1200 on my name last night HU cash, I'm down about 900 the last few days in 110s.
I bought 25% of 2 player's action in the 200 + 15 dollar HU MTT on stars, it just started.
Goal of 3k in 2 weeks, more on that later.
Bankroll 3500-3600

Rough Day
Started out 0-5. Won one then lost one. I don't know what it was today but it seemed like I was out thinking myself at times and just getting myself into terrible spots I think. I can usually be objective and know what I am doing wrong or if I'm just running bad or some combination, but today I have no idea. Going to have to review the hand histories, but I'm not really feeling like it now.
The meeting with the website guy went very well. The site should be up within 2 weeks. I did a rough draft of the text for the website today and a site map for him. Looking forward to this as it progresses. I hope all the players that expressed interest in making videos are actually going to come through. That is my biggest concern about this site, I have confidence that there will be plenty of customers for it and the coaches that are working with the members will do very well.
Bankroll at 5300-5400

Some Stuff
PokerStars added 50NL - 1k NL HU cash tables. I played a bit of 200NL HU cash today, ended up down 18 over like 10 minutes. Just wanted to try it out a bit. I might play some 100NL full stack or a shorter stack of 200NL HU soon. But I want to mainly keep playing 110s HUSNG.
Meeting with the website guy for the HUSNG coaching site tonight. Gotta drive downtown for it, going to talk over a few drinks and finalize pricing and what he has to do as well as timeframe. I'll post about that tonight or tomorrow.
Played a French player today for 5 games. He won the first 2 in the 110s, then I won 3 straight. He was a pretty big fish and sucked out on me a few times. It was fun. I tried to get him to play 2 tables or to play a 220 with me, but he didn't understand English very well and he had to go after game 5. It was a success just to get him to keep playing.
Just noticed I did not post this. Going to meet website guy.
