I did alot of reading on 2+2 today, some articles that my coach told me are a must read for any poker player that wants to become a solid numbers player. I played pretty well today and should have ended with a 2 buy-in day, but a couple of donks got lucky river cards and took away two pots for about a buy-in. Oh well, at least I was smart enough to not put more money in when I knew they got there. Had a few nice plays today, including stacking a guy off with 10 4 off. Its funny how a simple battle for the blinds can lead to a full stack shipping into my bankroll. Unfortunalty had to lay down Aces today but it was a good play cuz the guy had flopped top two. Here are some hands from today.
Bigger Pots of Today:
Thought this guys was on a steal, nice to see him move in after the turn card, lol:
Hand 1
I wish all my opponents were this dumb:
Hand 2
I'm really surprised I didn't get this guy's whole stack:
Hand 3
End of the Day Suckout :(
I put this guy on a flush draw maybe an overpair, either way that 2 sucked:
Hand 4

Day 98
May 22nd, 2007
Not many interesting hands today. Got a lil wreckless at the end of my session and ended up costing me a positive day oh well. Game is getting stronger each day and my reads are getting better. Made one stupid play today with Kings, I should have reraised instead of dumping off my whole stack, oh well lesson learned.

Day 97
May 21st, 2007
Still tightening up the leaks and slowly am making fewer mistakes throughout the day. Again trying to get use to when to release a hand and saving money. Did pretty well today but made probably 2 $10 mistakes and I need to alleviate those and find the times to make my moves. My play lately has made me feel alot more confident, can't wait to start rolling through 2K.
Underset for a big ass pot, shitty:

Day 96
May 20th, 2007
Well coaching is on the way. My coach Ron has been feeding me some concepts and I am getting back to owning the tables. I'm in the beggining of training so I'm still making a few mistakes per day. Double barrelling is fun, but I need to learn when to call it quits and surrender the hand. Didn't really have any interesting hands today.

Day 94
CRAZY NEWS BLOGGERS, my college buddy Roseland, who I use to beat up all the time in our home games took 2nd place in one of FTP's FTOPs and wond almost $64,000. Congradulations Aaron, hopefully now you buy yourself a new car, it's time to retire the GREEN MACHINE.




Anyways, I dropped over to stars to play some 25NL and did pretty descent. Starting my coaching with Ron tomorrow I'm gonna beat this 50NL game if it's the last thing I do. Well here are a few hands from today enjoy.

Day 90(cont.)
So I jumped back up to 50NL today and pretty much lost everything I won at 25NL. I'm starting to work closely with a friend of mine to find out what I need to do to beat 50NL b/c currently I've lost approximately $900 at this level. until this debt is made back and some back on top I will not be moving to 100NL so this means I need to make about $1500 at 50NL before I'll be moving to the next level. It will bring my bankroll around 3K and give me a good understanding for the level. Good luck rounders, here are stats from today

Day 90
I cannot begin to appologize enough to my fellow bloggers. I couldn't believe it myself that I haven't updated my blog in almost a month. Well we're all caught up and I will make a strong effort to start playing and blogging more consistantly. I'm getting to the point where I can start playing 50NL again. The only problem is having some of my money on stars and some on FTP but its nice being able to bounce back and forth finding the better games. Had a great session today after getting home from working winning almost 5 buyins on stars. I think i also got another $22 from RB last month. SOOOO pathetic considering I'm use to getting 10x that much back from RB. I like Stars games better but RB is a huge help too. Well grinders I'm back and checking out Jon's blog the other day I have some catching up to do. Solid session today and hey check it out I figured out how to add graphs now if I can figure out how to do screen shots.

BIG POTS:
Thought this guy might have been bluffing so floated to the turn, I'm Lucky here:
