The Part Where I Light a Fire Under my Ass

Not a great start to the weekend :(

The bulk of that was 24 tabling 1/2- 3/6 so I guess it's not nearly as bad as it looks. But it still never feels great for me when I lose >1k in a day.

Had two back to back hands mid session which I had to take a break after. Villain is BIGliveson, a long time mid-stakes reg on stars.

I dunno about hand 2. First of all my c-bet might not be great. And then on the turn I think bet/folding and bet/calling are close, but I thought that since he just stacked me he might get the $ in lighter/think I'm on tilt because I'm probably kind of an unknown to him.

Meh whatever definitely played mediocre at best that session, but I'm not gonna dwell on it. 

On another note, Stephen and I got our apartment locked up for next year in LA. 3bedroom, 2 bathroom, 3 miles from the beach. We're gonna use the 3rd bedroom as our office. I'm real excited to say the least. 

I might play some PLO tonight. Since we'll both be going for SNE next year and be unable to play at the same tables we're thinking about working on PLO so we can have a wide range of games to select from. 

alright Matty out-
