will be reggin a wsop circuit game this coming saturday at thunder valley. 130 miles from the east bay home so i'll be staying overnight. it's event 2, 400 bi-250k guaranteed, day 1d w day 2 on sunday. it's the only game in the series i can reg, cuz we'd committed previously to taking the 89yo parents out to the house we bought. headed there right after i return from it. 10 days w em. they're excited and it'll probably be the last plane ride of their lives so...worth it. thankfully oct 19 begins the ten day road trip run good series. much closer to home, at graton. i'll look up the events in depth when i get home on the bayou and will build a schedule from there.
unfun fact. embarrassingly, i have zero career cashes in games that could show up on hendon mob. 0-6 in those. that'll change w volume. i can feel it. if at first you don't succeed...
fun fact. have gained 60 hours of cash experience in a month, grinding one or two days a week, 4-6 hours per session. it's been profitable and educational. super fun if seated near ppl who like to talk about myriad topics. v boring wo someone to chat w. played 13 sessions, going 9-4. all four losers were in a row and as a direct result of semi bluffing for stacks w moves that work v well in 600 bi tournaments and not well at all in low stakes nl cash. it took -2k in a row to learn the lesson...these people won't fold. regardless of whether or not their calls are +or- long term, they won't fold. played 1-1-3 at graton, 1-2-3 at oaks and 1-2-2 at lucky chances. biggest swings: +1810 at graton, -780 at oaks. v small sample size, but am pleased to report a 55 hourly pay rate thus far. railed the 2-5nl games at those rooms many times til my name got called off the waiting lists. the players are the effin same as they are at the 1-3 introductory level i'm currently at. no difference. 1k cap on its bi where as 1-3 caps it at 500-600. if i can keep finding friendly social games and more importantly, i can keep winnin(fingers crossed)by years' end i should be done railing em and instead playing in em.
