March 23rd Online Poker
Topic: General Poker
I got my hand on the laptop for my first night of poker since Vegas. I was nervous since I hate losing sometimes after playing well over the weekend.

It appears that PokerStars now has a $4 multitable sit and go. I went ahead and gave that a try but for some reason I said I would play more hands this time. I call lots of min blinds only to fold them to a raise or catching nothing on the flop.

I continued to play bad hands including the following which practically killed me out of the game. I played A3o and raised. To make a long story short, I get flushed at the river. What sucks is he called all my raises just since he had middle pair and a flush draw. I had two pair on the river which didn't make things good for me but I was already distracted with phone calls and my kid not going to sleep when he should've. I never played well while having to watch my son. It was no surprise that I lost bad in that one. Here's the hand with the donkey waiting for his flush:

Against my own rules, I decide to play again to make up for my loss. I play an 18 handed $5 sit and go. I played ultra tight in the begining and just shot up to first place when we were down to one table. I was happy during the rought time heads up. The guy kept going all in and I folded each time. He finally calmed down and I slow played KK to take the game.

So I made a little more over my $4 loss. All is good.
