Getting lucky

Most times when I read poker blogs it seems everyone is in a downswing. I guess winning players just keep on playing and have less time to blog!

Finished my Party reload bonus last night and turned $733 into $1063 including the bonus. So my neteller account will have never been so large. I was hoping to see some Feb bonus codes at PSO to get 9m points but no luck. I should have signed up a site right before month end but missed out.

So that means that I will end up playing at Paradise earning my chipset which is going slower than I expected. Luckily I keep dealing out bad beats. But I have been switching up my game quite a bit at the NL50 level.

In BB with 64s and it gets raised on by CO to $1.25 (BB is $0.50). SB calls and I reraise to $5. Normally people at this level only reraise with KK or AA but I figure that should work to my advantage.... CO folds but SB calls. Flop is Ks 5 7 giving me an oesd. SB checks and I lead out for $6. He reraises to $12 so I put him on top pair but figure he should lay it down to a push... so I push for another $32. He calls and turns over K 5 for two pair but I hit 8s on turn for the straight and a 10s on river for flush. Wish I wasn't so tired because after that play I am sure that my raises would get callers.

Working on how to post hands similar to how I post on 2+2.

The wife is starting to see the bankroll go up so she is starting to get interested.

Also, I don't know how to go to sleep at a regular hour.. maybe 4-5 hours sleep tops.
