Sometimes poker can be frustrating. This weekend was one of those times. Every time that I took two steps forward, I took two steps back. I finished up the weekend down about 1/2 buyin. It seemed like I couldn't do anything wrong and then it seemed like I was getting outdrawn every hand.
Some Hand Examples (both good and bad)
http://www.pokerhand.org/?622301 - flop a set and get paid
http://www.pokerhand.org/?622281 - flop a set, get all the money in way ahead, and get outdrawn
http://www.pokerhand.org/?622278 - AA vs KK - all-in pre-flop; K on river
http://www.pokerhand.org/?622284 - Make nut flush and get paid by 2nd nut flush
Oh well, such is poker.
I am still plugging along with trying to hit 20k cash game hands by the end of the month. Right now, I have just barely 10k hands thanks to being out of town one weekend. I am going to stick with 2/4 NL during the week and mix in some 5/10 NL on the weekends depending on how good the tables are.

Moral of this story: Push Presto (since it is gold) and fold all other hands.
