Introduction and Starting BR

So in poker they say you need to be accountable to yourself so I figured a blog would keep me honest (if I stick with it). Here it is then: my (volnation27) poker blog. I'm starting this as I try to build (or re-build) a bankroll through heads-up SNG's (GreenPlastic style) and then on to 6-max cash games and other stuff. I'm starting with around $150 which means I'm going to begin playing the $5.25. I'll do a double post today and try to update daily after this. I thought about doing my blog on CardRunners, but I'll wait till I'm on to 6-max cash to do that if at all. Anyway, I've been running pretty good so far today at the $5.25s. I'm 4-2 for the day so far and will try to get in 12 or so more today. Got a little unlucky in the last one I played, but I think I played it right:

Full Tilt Poker, $5 + $0.25 NL Hold'em Sit n' Go, 15/30 Blinds, 2 Players

BB: 1,230
Hero (SB): 1,770

Pre-Flop: (45) Kc 6d dealt to Hero (SB)
Hero raises to 90, BB calls 60

Flop: (180) 6s 6h 2d (2 Players)
BB checks, Hero bets 120, BB calls 120

Turn: (420) Qs (2 Players)
BB checks, Hero checks

River: (420) 3s (2 Players)
BB bets 300, Hero raises to 1,560 and is All-In, BB calls 720 and is All-In

Results: 2,460 Pot
BB showed 2h 6c (a full house, Sixes full of Twos) and WON 2,460 (+1,230 NET)
Hero showed Kc 6d (three of a kind, Sixes) and LOST (-1,230 NET)

Unfortunate, but whatever. I outplayed him most of the match I think.


BANKROLL: $142.15
