I had a really nice winning streak&#8230;until my short session of yesterday night when I was tired. But nonetheless I&#8217;ve won about 10 buy-ins since my last post. Playing with a good night sleep is really important for me, I think it explains my wins and losses since the beginning of the challenge. When I&#8217;m tired, I tend to make more preflop calls that put me in difficult spots where I take poor decisions because I am tired (i.e. I&#8217;m on tilt). Anyway it&#8217;s a good comeback and I&#8217;m now slightly above my starting point after 11 days of challenge&#8230;which is not so good. But hey, I&#8217;ve raked more than 145\u20ac since the beginning, so I&#8217;m a big winner overall, am I ?<\/p>\n<p>Here is the state of my bankroll:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.poker-analytics.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/br_119_86.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-109\" alt=\"br_119_86\" src=\"https:\/\/www.poker-analytics.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/br_119_86.png\" width=\"218\" height=\"94\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>And the last sessions:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.poker-analytics.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/sessions21.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-110\" alt=\"sessions2\" src=\"https:\/\/www.poker-analytics.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/sessions21-168x300.png\" width=\"168\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.poker-analytics.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/sessions21-168x300.png 168w, https:\/\/www.poker-analytics.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/sessions21.png 360w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 168px) 100vw, 168px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I haven&#8217;t find great hands to discuss, but I liked this little trick:<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Helvetica;\"><strong>Stacks<\/strong>:<br \/>\nUTG &#8211; UTG (<\/span><strong><span style=\"color: green; font-family: Helvetica;\">\u20ac6,07<\/span><\/strong><span style=\"font-family: Helvetica;\">)<br \/>\n<strong>CO &#8211; Hero (<\/strong><\/span><strong><span style=\"color: green; font-family: Helvetica;\">\u20ac6,01<\/span><span style=\"font-family: Helvetica;\">)<\/span><\/strong><span style=\"font-family: Helvetica;\"><br \/>\nBTN &#8211; BTN (<\/span><strong><span style=\"color: green; font-family: Helvetica;\">\u20ac5,32<\/span><\/strong><span style=\"font-family: Helvetica;\">)<br \/>\nSB &#8211; SB (<\/span><strong><span style=\"color: green; font-family: Helvetica;\">\u20ac6,12<\/span><\/strong><span style=\"font-family: Helvetica;\">)<br \/>\nBB &#8211; BB (<\/span><strong><span style=\"color: green; font-family: Helvetica;\">\u20ac4,23<\/span><\/strong><span style=\"font-family: Helvetica;\">)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Preflop:<\/strong> (<\/span><strong><span style=\"color: green; font-family: Helvetica;\">\u20ac0,07<\/span><\/strong><span style=\"font-family: Helvetica;\">, 5 players) <strong>Hero is CO<\/strong> with <\/span><span style=\"color: blue; font-family: monospaced;\">5\u2666<\/span><span style=\"color: green; font-family: monospaced;\">5\u2663<\/span><span style=\"font-family: Helvetica;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"color: gray; font-family: Helvetica;\"><i>1 fold<\/i><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Helvetica;\">, <\/span><strong><span style=\"color: red; font-family: Helvetica;\">Hero raises to \u20ac0,15<\/span><\/strong><span style=\"font-family: Helvetica;\">, BTN calls \u20ac0,15, SB calls \u20ac0,13, <\/span><span style=\"color: gray; font-family: Helvetica;\"><i>1 fold<\/i><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Helvetica;\"><\/p>\n<p><strong>Flop:<\/strong> <\/span><span style=\"color: black; font-family: monospaced;\">5\u2660<\/span><span style=\"color: red; font-family: monospaced;\">8\u2665<\/span><span style=\"color: green; font-family: monospaced;\">2\u2663<\/span><span style=\"font-family: Helvetica;\"> (<\/span><strong><span style=\"color: green; font-family: Helvetica;\">\u20ac0,50<\/span><\/strong><span style=\"font-family: Helvetica;\">, 3 players &#8211; BTN: \u20ac5,17, SB: \u20ac5,97, Hero: \u20ac5,86)<br \/>\nSB checks, Hero checks, <\/span><strong><span style=\"color: red; font-family: Helvetica;\">BTN bets \u20ac0,14<\/span><\/strong><span style=\"font-family: Helvetica;\">, SB calls \u20ac0,14<\/span><\/p>\n<p>On the flop I found a set on a rather dry board, and I decide to check to create some action with the two players.
