Cash and tourneys

I think I pay much more patiently in cash games when I am playing multi's at the same time. Therefore last night I had a session where I played 1 or 2 MTTs and 2 or 3 cash game tables at the same time. Here's how it went...

Cash games
PartyPoker, 0.25-0.50. 4 hours, 2-3 tables.

Key hands...

- get AA in late position. An early position player makes it $1 and I re-raise to $3.50. Only he calls. The flop is 8-10-J. He checks and I bet $5. He calls. The turn is a 7. He bets $5 and I decide to call, justto see what he does on the river. The river is a Q and he bets $15. I fold = -$13.30

- a middle position player makes it $2 and I call in late position with 8c7c. The BB also calls. The flop is Qc-8-3c. BB bets $1, MP calls and I call (maybe I should raise here?). The turn is Ac. BB bets $2, MP calls and I raise to $6.50. Just BB calls. The river is Kc. Not an ideal river. He bets $1 and I call. He shows AK = +$14.25

- get KK UTG+1. UTG limps and I make it $2. The SB and UTG call. The flop is 6h-9h-2h. I have Kh. They both check and I bet $3.75. They both call. The turn is a 3. They both check, and I decide to check too. The river is 10h. SB checks and UTG bets $5. It's pretty obvious he has Ah but I call anyway. He shows Ah3h for the flopped nuts = -$10.75

- get 8s7s in the SB. An MP player makes it $2 and I am the only call, although being out ofposition, I should fold. The flop is A-6-5. I check and he bets $4. Now I should definitely fold, but I call. The turn is a 7, giving me a few more outs (any 4, 9, and I think 7 or 8 = 13 outs). I check and he bets $5. I call. The river is a 9 and I bet $15. He calls with AK = +$23.90

Session balance = +$31.59

Tournaments
BoDog, $4 + $0.40. 133 runners, 27 paid.

This is the tournament I came 2nd in last week so I thought I would give it another go. I played very tight, got no premium hands but hit a few sets and won a couple of 50-50's to get up to 13k with 16 people left. This was enough to put me in about 5th position. Then the big stack min-raises UTG. I push with KK, as although I have a lot of chips compared to others, I still have a fairly low M. He calls with AQ. If I win this then I am a massive chip-leader with 16 to go. In stead he flops a Q and turns another Q and I am out in 16th = +$2.25

Titan, $2 + $0.10. Heads-up.

I can't remember how, but I lose. I am rubbish at heads-up and thought I should practice. = -$2.10.

Overall session balance = $31.74

Cash Hours = 123
Cash Profit = $561.19 ($4.56 p/h)

Tournament Hours = 66.5
Tournament Profit = $1467.34 ($22.07 p/h)

Total bankroll = $2078.53 ($121.47 to next target)

August 1st - $2200
September 1st - $3000
