My wife picked up Howard Lederer "Tells All" at the dollar store. The tells section is a load of rubbish. "if someone slams their chips in and stares at you they are weak" - strong means weak. There might be a little bit of truth there but I have seen acting strong mean strong lots of times! Then it was shaky hands - oh well i guess a little bit when someone looks down at aces but mine shake more when i'm bluffing. Then it goes onto hand selection - if you played this guide you would be very bored and find it very difficult to get away from you pair of aces when someone has a set! oh well I'm glad it wasn't 29.99 like the other poker dvds!
didn't get to play much poker as cable was out. it came back on and I had 2 double ups on 2.5 buyins at 5c/10c NL (pocket aces first hand on one of them - am getting very good hands since redeposited on Europoker) then won a $1SNG.
Diet is going well and another game of squash tonight. Got beat 3-2 but he usually thrashes me so not too bad!
Laydown/read of the night..very pleased! posted 10c blind in lateish position to buy into a new game. 4c7c saw flop unraised Ac4s7s. Early postion bets 40c guy before me calls - I said to myself 1st guy has AJ 2nd guy has 56 - decide to just call the 40c turn is 8 (not a club) 1st guy checks 2nd guy goes all in for 85cents - i fold - for only 85c more!, 1st guy calls. 1st guy A10 second guy 56. Ok got the 1st hand slightly wrong!
Closing bankroll $53 - well on target for $20k by 1 June - now allowed to buy in cash games for more than the minimum $2.5 - well $2.65!
Watching High Stakes Poker - don't think these guys are following the above starting hand guide!
