The Bad and the Good

First the Bad. This was a hand I couldn't get away from and have no fault with my play. This was literally the 3rd hand I was dealt in this game and had no reads on anyone.

______________________________________
Now, the Good. This player hadn't really done much during this session. He seemed solid enough but this was a strange hand to play.

This helped to turn around my session and I won back my losses plus. I had good luck at another table to end up with my bankroll back to what it was before yesterday when I dropped a buy in.

I am very happy with my game at this time and am looking forward to playing a lot this week-end.
