been a while

but i haven't really played. i took almost all of the holidays off from poker. it wasn't really planned but i was never really in the mood to play so i spent sometime reading but that was about it. i played a little bit late last week but it was mostly just some limit holdem and omaha hi/lo cash.

my december was an ok month, i made about $500 playing nlh, lost about $250 playing lhe, won about $750 from omaha hi/lo, made a little bit playing sng's and probably broke close to even in tournaments.

i put in my first real session of the year last nigth. played the 7pm $75 and got bounced early on a bad beat that i can't really remember at the moment. the 8pm $26 was unlucky as well as i ran Q2o from the bb into the sb's Q6o on a Q62 flop. the 8pm $163 was another good showing and for the 879434798102348 time i made it deep but finished 27th. i took some beats in this tourny as well early when i built up a stack and then lost QQ vs AQ, KT vs 77 on a T8x flop and chopped AK vs KQ on a KT3 flop when the turn and river came 33. it's getting a little frustrating getting this deep in this tournament and never even getting a sniff of the final table but i guess it could be worse and it's really over a small sample when i think of it.

during the tournaments i ran up to 4 tables of 2/4 6-max limit holdem and got about 1150 hands in. the results were pretty good finishing up $650 which is a sick 162.5bb. i obv ran like god but the opponent play was atrocious. i'll continue to work on my limit holdem game especially 6-max since that's were all the action is at. i also logged some hands playing 5/10 omaha hi/lo and played one hand very poorly that resulted in me being down about 5 bb's in that game.

not sure when i'll play next but my next post will probably include my goals for the first half of '08.
