Overdue

I haven’t posted in a super long time. I keep falling back on my word that I will stay on top of my posting. I have to keep this short as it’s late and I’m trying out Blogger for Word, so who knows if this will end up being posted, but basically I just had the best run in a long time, if not ever. I decided to try out Littlewoods this weekend for their 25GBP for 250 dealt hands, no idea why I didn’t try this one earlier. I bought in for about $100 and barely 80 raked hands into it I had pretty much lost my buy-in getting KK cracked twice. This seems to always happen to me with KK. First time against AA and second time against someone’s flopped set. The cards were just not coming and I was super frustrated so I managed to win back my losses and some in the Littlewoods casino, as I had 50GBP waiting to be cleared. I’ve been doing some casino bonuses which have paid off nicely but I would much rather win a modest amount in poker than a big win in the casino. I’ll take casino money anytime but I’m in this in the long-run for the poker. Went back to Littlewoods with my casino profit, managed to finish their dealt hands requirement and again caught much of nothing to make an almost meaningless profit from the poker bonus – but I shouldn’t complain as I came up nicely in the casino.

So, went for one last try at Absolute, had about $66 in bonus waiting to be cleared there. I bought in for $50 at a 100NL table. 2 hours later cash out for about $275. I had an unbelievable run where I finally caught the cards that I feel were long overdue along with no heartbreak suckouts. AA twice in the blinds with people raising/calling preflop and other monster hands to have the biggest poker session to date. The bankroll is happy and so am I.
