So we are 5 days into the month and I have already used up 2.5 days off because I went out of town for vacation this past weekend.
VPPs earned
This month: 8,300
Monthly goal: 105,000
96,700 to go.
I'm really considering heading out to Calgary for this series:
http://www.deerfootinn.com/uploads/posters/Summer-Super-Stack-Website-Resized.jpgWould probably go for event 6 and 7, and then for the cash games. I have heard they are pretty juicy out there! Don't think there is any way I could meet my monthly goal online if I did that though. Decisions, decisions. As far as SNE goes, I should stay home and play online, but I realllllyyyyy want to go play live!
A couple hands from today. Today I will post my biggest pot won and lost.
Hand 1: Biggest pot I lost today. This was vs a fish. Not too sure if I slightly overplayed my hand here, or it's just a cooler. QQ is not a typical 3 bet vs a utg raise, but he was playing 55% of hands and raising 16% with a 0 fold to 3 bet. Yep, was back to good old 500 zoom. Today PokerStars had vpp happy hours going on, and this was during one, and the games looked good.

Biggest pot won. Not too much to say about this hand. Just hit top boat and click away. This was vs a really good reg. I had 3 bet because the people to my left squeezed a lot, and when he min 4 bets, I think calling is the best play.
Not 100% sure about villains river shove. I guess I like his shove if I'm folding non boats here. If I had A J or Ax here it would be a really tough call, and he blocks AQ, QQ, so that makes me like his shove more than I originally thought.
