After a one week hiatus, we had our weekly game last night:

   This week  Cumulative  Average
CR   +$2.40     +$9.60    +$1.60
EM   +$1.45     +$5.45    +$0.78
ER   -$0.85     +$3.15    +$0.53
JB   -$0.25     -$9.75    -$1.39
JC   -$2.50    +$12.00    +$1.71
Me   -$0.25    -$12.30    -$1.76

The night started off with no showdowns for the first hour. We need to inject some new blood into these games. No monster pots all night either, though there were some hands where big pocket pairs were either misplayed or held to the showdown with better hands showing on the board.

JC’s 5-game streak came to an end. I’m guessing the cards just weren’t coming his way. CR continues to gain on JC in the stats.

I started off winning a few small pots (mostly consisting of the blinds and 1 or 2 small bets), then started losing a number of pots, then came back to just below even. I need to mix up my game a bit. One hand where I flopped two pair and turned a boat netted me virtually nothing. On another hand I folded top pair with a weak kicker when I completely misjudged what the other people had. I basically conceded 6 big bets to CR, which would have put me in the black and EM into first place this week. Doh.
