Did that just happen?

I think it did.

I just had a solid session.

Wow. So that is what that feels like.

Played some $100 NL with some focus, at Full Tilt, no less, and actually played well with good results by almost doubling my buy-in. It really could have been a HUGE session as I flopped a couple of sets in position, but the guys I needed to be in the hand never were.

Nothing really exciting, had AA vs. KK (short) and picked up a nice $60 pot.

Probably my big play of the night went like this.

I've got AK off in MP, UTG limps, I make it $4, UTG calls.

Flop is 3 9 4 with 2 diamonds. UTG checks, I make a cbet of $8, UTG calls.

Turn is a rag club, UTG checks, I bet out $15, UTG calls

River is a J spades, UTG bets out $10, I'm pretty sure he was on the diamond draw and raise to $30, he folds. It's more than likely that I was ahead, but it's still tough to fire that bullet, but this guy had been pretty loose, so I figured I had a shot.

Played in a MTT and multi-table SnG, too, but never got anything going. I got up pretty good early in the MTT, but went stond dead for about 4 orbits and got caught in a steal which pretty much did me in.

Overall, I feel a lot better about how I'm playing. I'm trying not to overthink and get "cute", but avoiding being mechanical, too. It's a tough balance, but I think I can get there.

I sure would like to make a good run in a tourney soon. It's so tough, you not only have to play well, but get lucky, and manage your stack, too.

Sure is nice to have a positive night for a change.
