Obligatory 'Every other month' post...

So here we are, trying to make sure google doesn't kill my blog's value. I really like the juice we get for phrases like poker strategy, since that site is my full time job. :)

I think I've turned the corner on 7cs hi lo. My post a month and a half ago, my BB/hour rate was negative about 9. It's climbed to negative 2.62 and if I just run the numbers since June 1st, I'm actually a +2.42 BB/hour winner. Woohoo!

Expanding to 7 card stud hi lo is a very good thing, since it seems the stud games at Absolute and Ultimate bet are just getting tighter and tighter.

Heads up is still by far my best $$ maker at 2.78 BB/hour. My only problem playing heads up stud is that once I get locked in on an opponent I have a tough time quitting. It's not a pride thing. It just that as you play him, you are constantly feeling him out, learning his style and tendencies, etc. After investing 30 minutes and getting to a point where I feel I've got a great line on how to clean him out, it's just hard as heck to sit out and go change a diaper or grab a juice for my toddler. 90% of the time when I sit out, the guy is gone, especially if he's down to me. Blah.

Soooo.. google, if you are listening. I love you. I promise more posts. I am your slave.
