Sng's bringing me toward $50

Today was pretty good overall, even though it ended on a lower note. I got in 19 sit & go tournaments for the day, boosting my FPP over 90. I started on fire, racking up three 3rds and a win in my first 4 tournaments. But playing micro stakes is of course loaded with land mines. I hit a few and just was handed some terrible beats. I'm of the opinion that talking about bad beats is about as interesting as talking about the weather, so I'm not going to get into it, but that's what happend. Multiple times. In my last four of the day, I was running strong in all, and ended up being handed my final two brutal beats of the night, both to make me the bubble, and then ended by racking up my 3rd win of the day. Not a bad way to go, but three losses and one victory earns a net of -$0.30.

For cash games, I didn't play much today, only 220 hands. It was a winning one, all due to one hand. I got KK preflop in the big blind and my first hand at the table. Utg raises to 6x the big blind and all in. The next player raises to 12 big blinds, and the button folds. The small blind then raises to 93 big blinds all in. I re-raise to 125 big blinds and all in, and the player who raised to 12, then calls my raise. Crazy preflop action, and four of us are all in leaving nothing but the board to be dealt, with a pot of 333 big blinds for me to win.

The flop comes [3h Jd 6c]

Turn [Ks]

River[8d]

I show my set of kings, and the rest muck, with me picking up the whole pot. Now here's the part of the story that gets a little hairy. Of course, the other big stack in this hand had AA, and I sucked out my 20% shot of winning. Now, when holding kings, another player at a full table will have aces about 1 out of 20 times. This is shorthanded, cutting the hands nearly in half, and I think I've kicked the odds in the nuts even for a full table.

Okay, just checked my info. I've gotten pocket kings 28 times. Of those, 3 times another player had aces, roughly twice the normal %, and at short tables on top of that! Also, of those 3 times, I've won 2 of them, which is just silly. Quads on one, and this hand here with the set. Both for very large pots.

So here's how I ended up running for the short day.

Another nice winning day, and another day of huge aggression. Not just a little, a ton. My flop aggression was 24, and total 8.40. Anyone with tracking software should be calling any bet I make, lol. The funny thing is that I felt I loosened up today, but ended up with a VPIP of 23%, and PFR of 10.9%. So I didn't really loosen up much if at all. It's disturbing that the only reason I'm ahead today is because of a suckout, but after a couple of the days I had, I think I had it coming to me. Chaulk it up for a win, and about ready to take on the next level. Going to scope those games out tonight.
