I'm not sure if it looks as crazy to you, but let me tell you. When you're trying to make good poker decisions at all those tables at the same time, things can start to get pretty tricky.Today's session was anything but stellar. It was a lot of up and down, at the highest point being up 125 big bets, then losing a few really big hands, putting me down about 90 big bets for the day.
Lucky for me, there was a player named arnie_137 whose poker path was about to collide with mine. I don't know what it was that started arnie off, but he began to throw money around left and right. He was shoving all in preflop, then showing 72 when everyone folded to him, he would bet and raise indiscrimantely, seeming to be on tilt hard. This continued for some time, and I decided to take the first decent hand I got and try to look him up before he gave up on his crazy playing method.
This was my first good hand:
How sweet this was. This guy ended up losing $17.14 at our table, and it was amazing. I'll definitely look for him in the future. I'm proud to say that out of all the money he lost, this hand here is the most he lost at once.
So thankfully, after lots of hands, I was finally up for the day all thanks to this one player who felt like sharing. I got in over 1,000 hands today which means my winrate for BB/100 was microscopic compared to the last few days, but a winning day's still a winning day I guess. And honestly, I would never complain about my winrate being 10.5BB/100 at just about any other level of play. After taking this guy's money and his continued throwing away of more money, he eventually left the table, and I called it a day. Here's what my final stats for thanksgiving looked like.
Definitely could have been better, but could have been a lot worse too. I'm undecided how I feel about 9 tabling right now. I think I still need to pay more attention, and more tables leads to more bad plays, which I really shouldn't be doing. Hoping to make up for today's slow pace tomorrow.
