Playing Great, Feeling Great

It's been a really great month of poker for me. I've been playing on Fulltilt poker as Hellboy and have just been playing really well. I've been building my roll on holdem and omaha, from .5/.10 to .25/.50 ...They're not crazy stakes, but it's enough to build a roll.

I've been playing alot with Gravedigger on Fulltilt and we had the sickest heads up game that i unfortunately was on the wrong end of. I doubled through with AK vs AQ on a A high board, so that put me in good sted. He was ultra aggressive which fits my style, i was letting him run over me and waiting for the big hand...and it arrived. I had AA and he raised on the button, i called, flop came 84J ...I checked it to him and he bet out, i re-raised, he called. I had him on a J. The turn was an 8 and i moved all in. He had 108 :( Not sure if it was the right play, it's easy to look back and decide, but when you're in a game, you're in a game.

Everytime i lose a game like this, it makes me stronger. I bounce back and play some great poker. I've been playing lots of omaha and just crushing the tables. Playing $5 sit n goes and in the top 3 almost everytime. I've turned a real corner when it comes to poker, feeling great about the game.

My live poker still needs improving, I was in a tourney with Moz, Bluescouse and Gravedigger and Bluescouse ended up winning it. He actually beat me 5-2 on a £5 a game pool match, so it was a good night for him overrall.

My live games needs improving for sure, I think i just don't have the same type of patience i have when i play online. In the round games me and the lads have, i do really well, I either win or finish heads up. However, when we go to the casino or to a formal poker tournament, i just don't seem to do aswel. Maybe it's a pyshcological thing, I'm not sure but it's definitely something I'll be working on.

On a whole, I'm up 3x my buy in and playing some fantastic poker. It's all going to plan.
