Okay, I haven't even looked at my stats yet. But that was so gross. I stuck to my usual plan, but had some just stupid stupid beats that really got me steaming. I had to stop playing after 45 minutes, because it really got to me. Here's a little sample of what I'm talking about.
Here I get a free flop from the big blind and hit two pair. I'm happy with that, and hoping someone has a jack and will pay me off. I get one customer and we to to the turn. I bet about the pot, confident that any jack will call me. He's a good fishy and the river pairs the turn, so now the hand I want him to have is beating me, super. He leads out for 1/6 of the pot, and of course I'm calling that every time just in case something crazy happend, but he shows QQ and a now better 2 pair. That sucked, but bottom 2 is a tricky hand to play, and I did well with it.
This one stung a bit more, but again I saw it coming a mile away, and my opponent's nature to slow play big hands saved me any extra money, but god is this frustrating. I limp with 6's utg and flop a boat. But even better than that, 2 aces hit the board. In these games aces almost always will take a flop, so I'm confident that somebody just hit trips and is looking to hand their stack to me. Once again, the turn and river come the same card, only this time Q,Q, and now that ace that I'm sure is out there has a bigger boat. Luckily the guy wasn't good enough to value bet his hand, he figured since I fired twice, I'd be sure to bet again and then he'd spring his amazing check-raise all in trap on me. This is the one that really got me cooking, gahhhr.
Here's the numbers from my playing.
Dealt 340 hands and saw flop:
-41 of 62 times in big blind (66%)
-5 of 63 times in small blind(7%)
-11 of 215 in others (5%)
Total of 57 out of 340 (16%)
Pots won at showdown: 7 of 11 (63%)
Pots won without showdown: 23
I'm about to see how much I made for that session. I wanted to write this before knowing, so that my results didn't get in the way of what I was feeling about how I just played. I really think I'm going to have won a bit, but I'm not sure how much. I'm going to guess about 40 big bets for the session. Time to find out.
I actually did quite a bit better, 57.7 big bets. Almost a full 50% more than my estimate. I really did think I was doing all right, but I was so frustrated from those counterfeited hands, that I needed a break. So I still averaged 76.9 big bets per hour for that session. That's great news for me really. I wish I had poker tracker numbers on these sessions, because I'm doing great.
In 100 minutes today, I've bumped my bankroll up 239.1 big bets. I'm salivating at the thought of .10/.25 being this easy to play, lol.
Through my first 1500 hands and 3.5 hours of play at .02/.05 I'm making:
23bb/100 and 99.6bb/hour which translates to $2.30/100 and $9.96/hour.
Even if my numbers were halved when moving up to .10/.25, I'd be doing
12.5bb/100 and 49.8bb/hour which would be $6.25/100 and $24.90/hour. Those are some nice looking numbers right now, especially being that those limits are only the next tier up. A little excited about that.
