Well over the last few days I've had some bad down swings, and just today I had a great up swing. For the most part my down swings were bad beats or where hands that I was ahead of their range and they just happened to have the very top of it. A perfect example of the hands is this one:

I figured him for a weak Ace. By the river I figured maybe two pair but still thought he just had a weak ace. He had played this way with much worse in the hands that I'd seen him play. But that's how things go sometimes.
I had some great hands today. Here's one of the craziest I've seen in a while:

In this four way pot, I had an equity of 61.7%. That is just crazy. I'm so glad I won. I definitly would have been pissed off if I would have lost.
Aside from all of that, I hit 5000 hands!! My winrate dropped down below 10, but It's up back where it was before so I'm gunna go ahead and count that as a win for my May goals. I'll go back over my goals once the month is officially over, but here is my graph so far.
Well that's all for today. Good luck and play smart!
