More Progress.

Even though time gets shorter and shorter for me to play, I’m still pulling some winning nights. Like tonight, after only about 12 hands. Obviously I need to stay in for longer, but there it is.

New bankroll – $8.63.

Here’s the hand:

Full Tilt No-Limit Hold’em, $0.02 BB (4 handed) – Full-Tilt Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

UTG ($1.68)
Hero (Button) ($0.77)
SB ($0.11)
BB ($0.59)

Preflop: Hero is Button with K, A
1 fold, Hero calls $0.02, SB calls $0.01, BB checks

Flop: ($0.06) K, 7, 7 (3 players)
SB checks, BB bets $0.02, Hero raises to $0.04, 1 fold, BB calls $0.02

Turn: ($0.14) A (2 players)
BB checks, Hero bets $0.14, BB calls $0.14

River: ($0.42) Q (2 players)
BB checks, Hero bets $0.40, BB calls $0.39 (All-In)

Total pot: $1.20 | Rake: $0.08

Results:
Hero had K, A (two pair, Aces and Kings).
BB had K, J (two pair, Kings and sevens).
Outcome: Hero won $1.12

I feel like I owe this mostly to picking the table. I found a table of loose players who were all doing poorly. Or at least, playing poor-ish hands for the hell of it. It was a matter of waiting for a good hand and betting it. It felt right because he was following me on the hands. Could’ve whipped out a third 7 and I would’ve been toast – as has happened a million times before – but luckily, not so.
