For various reasons I’ve been without poker tracker for the past 10days and I’ve come to realise even more what a great bit of software it is. Playing 30k hands a month it’s impossible to remember and classify every person you come across. I’ve been using PT for so long now it’s quite scary when it’s not there, I’ll often make a call based on just the basic info PT provides. I've only ever used it for cash games but recently they have added support for Crypto STTs and MTTs.
Also, a must have is GameTime+, it’s a free add-on for PT that overlays the key PT stats directly onto the poker table. You can configure it so that hands are uploaded every few mins and updated on the screen in real time…. Very useful when some bloke you have not played against for 4months sits next to you. I’ll get round to covering some more detailed aspect of PT in later blogs. I’ve added a link into PT here on my page, and yes it is my affiliate link, I shall spend the $10 for each purchase wisely! :o)
On the game front, I didn’t play much over the weekend as we were away visiting friends. After a bit of a turbulent week everything came up roses on Friday as good cards were paid off hand after hand for a nice £2.5K in double quick time, that was on £2/5 as well. It put a ray of light into what was otherwise a poor January, but more of this later.
The hand of the day was a joy to behold and more or less played itself, however it does validated the point I made a few blog entries ago about not laying down bottom/middle set.
I picked up 4h4d on the button and called £10 to see a 3 way flop.
4s 2c 6h
All the money from all three players went in on the flop for a £1302 pot…. First guy flips 77 and the second flips 99!! There were no miracle cards for anyone and I was left there and updating my player notes for these two jokers with a smile on my face.
If only it was always this easy, it just demonstrates the crap people will not only stick their chips in with… but call with as well!!
