Shorthanded Hold'em

Played a $5 NLHE shorthanded last night on Poker.com. I have to say that I'm not really a fan of shorthanded. Well I suppose thats a lie, I'm just not used to it. I haven't played much shorthanded poker except for home games (but that's a little different in my opinion). It was not too odd except for when it was nearing the final table. There were 28 people (I think) in the tourney and I ended up busting out 7th or 8th (top 5 got paid). It was odd playing with only 4 people on a non-final table. I was trying to stay alive for the FT but didn't want to get there with no chips. I usually play pretty tight near the bubble and loosen up when the FT get a little low on players. I just must have played loose to early and ended up trying to push someone out of a hand at a bad time. It's alright though, I made a little more than the entry fee back playing 5¢/10¢ at the same time as the tourney. Overall, I played well untill the last 10 or so hands where I went considerably downhill.


I've added a list of poker blogs to this site. They are blogs that fit in one (or more) of the following:

• I enjoy reading it
• it contains useful information
  
• I know/respect the blogger
• it's just sweet and deserves to be there for some other reason

The list will probably change from time to time so check it every so often. Click the links and read better blogs than this one.



Personal notes:

• last final is on Friday morning (9:45 am)
• I will probably sell my textbooks back and then go to Riverside Casino and play poker with that money
• not sure if I will be able to play in the BPT event this Sat. (I may be going to my girlfriends family Christmas event)
