Pokerist: after the beating I took at the tables yesterday..the "wounds" were not sufficiently healed..ergo.. no PM:session: played..AM:session:..as I always do first thing before heading to a table..collected the "Daily Bonus for 12K$ and then checked "Daily Quests".."Win 2-in-a row"..not may fav "Quest"..when playing with kamikaze I prefer to next hand fold..cash-out and return with 20$..but that "Quest" you almost have to play the hand.."Win with a 2-pair or lower 4x" & "Win with a flush"..only two options from my POV on 2$/1$ binds tables..from my POV the only smart tables for my style of  play..a normal play clock five chair or a fast play clock nine chair..and took a chair at the fast/nine..for most hands used the 20$ buy-in..never fewer than four players and at times a full table..most hands were with six or more players..I don't actually remember a hand where somebody was not all-in at some point during the play of the hand..and on most hands the first all-in was pre-flop..won a couple of hands early..neither were "Quest" hands..a set &  a straight..& chalked up another "Epic Fail"..when my low end house got  beat by a high end..finally completed the "2-pair or less 4x with 2 pairs & 2 2-pair..(check)..made a pot on a house & finally a flush..(check)..decided to stay and play..won a hand on a full house..lost the next..a few hands later..won a pot with a set & competed the remaining "Quest" with another 2-pair..left the chips on the table..played to the button or rather didn't catch decent hole cards so folded to the button.."waved bye-bye" to the table and ran to the lobby..at times during play was down in the neighborhood of 400$.. but the last two pots allowed me to escape marginally ahead at the table..there's an old adage.."You have to spend money to make money"..sure I'd like to win a bundle of chips at the table..but from my POV the "real faux money" is in the "Quests" & "Achievements"..ergo..if I have to leave some chips on the table to gain the aforementioned then so-be-it..ergo..<[stats}>..72 minutes played..81 hands played.."pace of play:" 53&1/3rd. sec./hd...11 wins..6 quality hands(only one was a "Quest Hand")..1 for every 7.36 hands played.."Current Bank:" 6.526,158$.."Up:" +43,034$("Daily Bonus:" +12K$.."Daily Quests(3/3):" +31'K$..
