Best Day EVER !!!
I definitely was on a big heater today for sure. I had my best day ever in poker, winning $13k over 1,749 hands in just under 4 hours of time at the tables. I ran so hot. I don't think I've ever ran this good in a single day. The running hot wasn't sucking out on people, it was just having all my big hands hold when I was ahead. I also was very fortunate that it seemed like EVERYONE had a hand they wanted to felt when I had a set or high pair. It also helped that a reg spewed like a monkey earlier today and I won $5.7k off of him alone. It was a great day.
Most of the play was at $5/10 NL, however, I did donk around for about 150 hands at $2/4 NL and lost 2 buyins there. So I won nearly 14 buyins at $5/10 NL and just to give you an idea of how great I ran... my W$SD% was 86.2% at $5/10 NL !!! I don't think I've ever had it be over 75% before for a full day.
I spent the last part of my night beginning to read "Elements of Poker" by Tommy Angelo. I'm only ~35 pages in so far but it looks pretty decent. It's already reinforced the concept of poker being a never ending session. Technically, running bad or running good is simply a figment of your imagination. The present is the only thing that matters. I'm going to really work hard on making sure I take that approach to the game.
The most important thing about today though, was that I played really well. I didn't get stacked for 100 big blinds a single time at $5/10 NL and I was able to felt multiple opponents. Even the biggest pot I lost was just a coinflip vs a medium stack.
I played great today and I'm going to do my best to play my A-game every single hand from here on out.
