I put $45 online again and played some tournaments. I ended up playing two $11.70 satellites to the Sunday Million and won the 2nd one. I played the Sunday Million with Danno and was doing great for the first hour, then during the 2nd hour, we didn't really get a decent hand. We were stuck with about 13 BB's. Here's the situation:
I'm in the big blind and I get dealt AKo and a middle position person raises a normal x3 the blinds raise. Do I have any other option other than reraising all-in? With 13 BB's, I was crying for a good hand for a double up.
Well it ended up that he had KK and I didn't improve, so I was out in like 2xxxth place out of about 6500 people (estimating, not sure). I think I did fairly well and did the best I could. Just didn't pick up a hand... :/ Oh well.
After the Sunday Million I pretty much tilted the rest of my money on various tournaments and cash games. So... I'm down $90 online and I'm done for a while now that school started. If I have an empty afternoon with nothing to do, I may play a tournament or two, but for now I think I need to focus on school. Hopefully we can start up a live cash game soon.

Poker at Suman's
LIVE GAME:
$246 + $56 = $302
ONLINE GAME:
$0
Ridiculously huge Follow the Queen hand with Suman and me. Person before me got dealt a queen, so my wild was a 5. I look at my hole cards... Another 5 and a queen. Basically all panned out to Suman having quad jacks and me having quad kings. :P

Online Poker goin down...
LIVE GAME:
$207
ONLINE GAME:
$36.34 ----> $12.94
Oy... A few weird hands and bad luck led me down to this. Along with the $21 i wasted in the rebuy. ;D I think after this I might chill from online poker for a while. I haven't played much in the last few days, but it just keeps going down. I'm saving this last money for an $11 satellite to the Sunday Million or an $11 deep stack tournament. Today we'll be playing some live poker, so hopefully I'll win some money there! Get some extra money before I head off to college! ;D

Starting Online again...
I deposited $45 on PokerStars, so I'll go ahead and add that into the total to make things easier.
LIVE GAME:
$142
ONLINE GAME:
$45 ----> $89.05
Not really much to talk about, I played 3 $4.40 180-person sng's and got 4th place in one of them. I played a bit of .05/.10 cash online, and a 1-table $3.40 turbo sng. All hold-em naturally! :P Didn't have any interesting hands, hopefully next time I'll beat someone's quads with higher quads! :D

Sweet Winnings
Starting with yesterday's game, I'm going to start posting about my wins and losses every time I play poker. Green means a win, red means a loss.
At the top of every post will be the total profit (hopefully I can start a bankroll soon):
LIVE GAME:
$0 + $142 = $142
ONLINE GAME:
$0
Last night, we played poker after tennis and I won some money. We played about an hour of .25/.50 cash, then a $20 tournament, then some more .25/.50 cash for about 45 minutes.
In the cash game I made a profit of: $4.
I chopped the pot in the tournament and made a profit of: $70.
In the second cash game, I made a profit of: $68.
*HIGHLIGHT HAND*
In the 2nd cash game, I won a monster pot from Neel and Sagar. Neel was UTG, I had the button, and Sagar was BB. Neel had called out his hand pre-flop, AdQd. I looked at my hand and I have QJo so I call his pre-flop raise. Sagar also calls.
Flop was:
Qs Js rag
Sagar checks
Neel bets $3
I raise $7 more on top. (because I know I'm beating him and I know he's going to call me down with TPTK)
Sagar pushes all in for $6.75
Neel thinks for a bit then calls
I call
At this point Sagar makes a mistake and puts out the turn and the river, both blanks for Neel. If an ace came out I was just going to fold if he bet.
Neel checks
I bet all-in
Neel thinks then calls
I flip over my hand, cause I know I'm winning. They groan, and apparently Sagar had QK, and he didn't hear Neel say what his hand was, LOL!
Mad moneeeey! :P Maybe Neel will think twice about calling his hand out next time... :)
