First full day at work for over 6 years : )

I just started my training for a new job yesterday. I was super tired when I got to work. The night before I had headed out with a friend to play at Dusk Till Dawn Poker Room at Nottingham. We soon got bored of that and headed to the G Casino Poker Room at Sheffield. I think I managed to get in around 2:45am then played a session online until 3:20am. I ended up going to sleep at 4am and had to get up at 7:30am. It made it a tough first day training with new colleagues, that’s for sure!

Last year I started to play live and have tracked the sessions. So far I have played 70 sessions. I hoped for a bigger win rate but I guess it is hard to do all the things we do online against people who don’t like to fold anything. Took me a few sessions to adapt but I think I have the hang of these live people now.



I played a few online sessions in the last two days. Resulted in me losing £58.25p (£50 for an MTT entry). I prefer to play live than online now. I like online for the ease and comfort factors but what fun is it when everybody plays such a tight game. Basically your all waiting for either a donk to sit at your table or to be on the better side of a cooler. Not too apealing to me.

Bluffing nits is more fun than making top pair VS huge droolers, imo

Bluffing nit's takes much longer than making a hand vs droolers.When a nit enters the pot their hand is of a stronger range than other players.Decent nits are always going to make you work harder to win money from them.
