Profit for Night: $161.43
The title of this post refers to taking advantage of the fishes on the tables tonight. If there was ever an example of where poker software can be used to pay for itself it is tonight. I got in from work, loaded up Party and started data-mining the cash tables. Then did a couple of jobs around the house, had dinner and watched the Euro 2008 semi-final. After that I checked back to see how the tables were looking and managed to find 5-6 tables with loose fishes on, i.e. playing over 50% of hands. Within about 10 minutes I was sitting on 4 of these tables and taking advantage of them.
I only lost 2 pots where I had put in more than $10 in the short session, and both of those could have ended very differently. The first one was very early on:

I honestly don't know why I called the extra $7 after the guy had limp called $14! It was pretty obvious that I was going to face a decision like the one I was posed with when the spade hit the river and to me i just smelt like he had a bigger flush, he played it so bad to be fair and if I hadn't been such a good player and been able to get away from that he'd have been in trouble. A worse player would have insta-called for his stack their with my low flush.
Still that was only $17 lost. The next hand was the only outdraw I suffered all night which was nice, luckily it was only a short-stack:

What the hell he's doing with nine-trey in this hand I do not know...oh wait... it was SOOTED...!
So...onto the good stuff...and there was plenty of it tonight, I think I may have even run better than the Cannon tonight, not only in making hands for myself, but also for my opponents to get enough of a piece to lose a large chunk of money.
saying that though the river probably cost me his whole stack here, although I should have just rereraised the turn then it wouldn't have even mattered as he no doubt would have shoved.

Ironically this was against the same guy who I folded a low flush to earlier so I was prety much just getting back the chips I'd loaned him...
A lovely check-raise on the river in this next hand:

Pretty much put him on AJ and could tell he wanted to fold when I reraised him but he'd already committed too much.
Here's another example of the deck helping me out:

I pretty much sensed he was setting some sort of trap here. He had continuation bet 100% of the time and it didnt add up that he wouldnt having reraised preflop. Thought I was drawing to a heart even when I called the small turn bet, obviously the second king was the only card that meant I'd:
a) win the hand
b) get paid off
Had a couple of other mid-size pots that went well mainly where I got a couple of big bets called with big pairs. I saw Aces 5 times in the 193 hands! Considering you get them on average once every 214 hands that stat was pleasant...
It wouldn't be a good post without a nice graph to show you, so here it is...
I'm going on holiday on Saturday for a week to La Manga, so that will be a good session to end things for a while if I don't get to play again before I go.
