Back to back live tournament wins

I am so sick at live tournaments!
This is quite strange because for the last 6 months I’ve only been playing online cash games. For some reason I play tournies better offline and I play cash games better online.
Last night I won a live £30+3 freezeout with approx. 25 runners. I won £285 for my 1st [...]

Don’t bluff idiots and don’t show your cards!

I’ve lost so much money in the past from trying to bluff idiots off a hand. I did manage to bluff 2 idiots off a hand today though.
Both players were seeing over 40% of flops and the big blind was folding more than a player of his looseness usually does postflop.
Here it is:
Party Poker – [...]

Just finished a 90 minute session and made a profit of $2200

Here’s an interesting hand that I feel I played really badly and timidly. I played the hand very out of character and got myself into a sticky situation.
I really need to work on my deep stacked game. This opponent took a few quite big stacks off me without a showdown. I think I play to [...]

Good news and bad news

Since I started playing poker again (25th of June) – I was up about $3000 online within 2 days. I am now down approx. $500 over this period of time. I’m about quits at Party and I’ve lost just under $500 at TowerGaming. I also lost a $200 I cleared at TG [...]

I then played at Patry and won $1000. In my final session of the day I lost $1600. I played some [...]

Got my PC back today

My PC crashed and just got fixed today. The computer was wiped but my I still have the files I wanted to keep. (Apple’s are so much better – this never happens on a Mac).
I signed up to Pokerhand.org and just wanted to test it, by posting a hand history from Party. Here it is:
