Chillingggggggggg

yep, that's all.

So San Diego is fun. I've enjoyed my stay here but I'm flying back later today. My LHE game is good, at least live it is. I went to the casino fri. night and played NL from 1am-6am - +197, i was down 350ish too :)

saturday night: LHE from 1am-5am. I made one questionable fold where I had AK flop was Ad 10h 3h - 3ppl in pot turn 4h - I bet and get check-raised. I actually folded my hand here because I "FELT" that the guy was strong and that at best I had 2 outs (Kh no good) to improve. Online I would very rarely make that fold but online b&m people are weak and scared. You don't see very many tricky aggros postflop. Later on I noticed the same guy was very very tight and raised flop w/his flush draws + overs so something tells me that my fold was good. I dunno, live play it's just so easy. I felt I played perfectly until the end, then I gambled some money away but ya, I wish i could play like that online. I really felt my card play was near perfection yesterday. Good folds, good bets, nothing wasted.

haha, I was chatting it up at the table and the girl next to me is like 'why don't u straddle' so I said fine, this one time I'll straddle. like 5 callers, and it comes back to me and I don't look at my cards 'more money!' so I raise it one more bet. And then I said "let's check it down, I won't look at my cards"
Flop Q 10 2 check check, turn 2, check check check, river J, check check check

I had the best hand! 9,10o. :D:D:D

LHE that night +16.

I'm thankful for poker. It helps me with my discipline *at times*. I'm better at controlling my emotions and also at looking at a situation from different perspectives. Rather than getting angry, I try to understand what's going on with the situation and figure out the best move. It sucks when you don't get your way and I definitely am leaving down this trip but at least things worked out in the best way possible, I think.

A lesson learned:
You can't predict the future with much accuracy based on information on the past and the present when it comes to people. We're too random, we change too much. But does this mean there's no truth, no constant that always remains true? I think so, I think unless you're God there's never going to be a true unchanging constant factor. But, there is truth. An action that happens in that moment, you can judge it to be completely true or not, and if you do, keep in mind for that moment it really is true and cherish it; but remember that in the future, it could change, it can be out of your control and there's nothing you can do about it. Try your best and chin up. There's no point in dillydallying.

Back to the 3/6 grind
