**Official uNL Microbrew thread: August**

Aug. 1st session, pretty mediocre tonite, but at least I still came out on top.

[Mr_Pathetic]

month off to great start here at NL 10.

I'm almost too embarrassed to post the first one. I really should have just pushed the river. Ugh. Oh well...

Not a huge fan of the second barrel here without a pretty good read.

[creamfillin]

I just played on of the best sessions of my life. Tilt free. No distractions. Restrained myself from 4-bet shoving AK and 2 barreling stations. Repaired alot of last night's damage.

WTF poker

Last night I win 2 pots over 10BB and lose 16, drop $330 for my worst day ever. Today, I run $70ish above my sklansky bucks and take down my second best day ever, $453. Poker is gonna make me hurl one day.

why do i torture myself trying to play cash?

been trying to transfer from tourneys to cash for a bit at 10NL...nobody folds, cant hit anything to get paid off, cant have overcards + FD beat bottom pair like ever...bad

[/ QUOTE ]

it's probably because you're not playing right.

i had trouble too when i first switched from HUSNGs and used to donk it up when i played cash.

[/ QUOTE ]

id say its more along of the line of losing to 80/0s who keep flopping huge when i flop slightly less

[Pants Optional]

this was actually the 80/0 i was referring to
