First session for the blog

It's 6AM, and early morning happy hour on Full Tilt. I'm 3 tabling NL25. I'll edit this posts with some hands, hopefully me being a big winner in those, we shall see.

Edit 1: 40 Minutes into the session, not much going on, best hand so far was pocket jacks where I won ~$15, but then gave it right back to the same player, when I flopped top pair, and he hit a set.

Edit 2: Can't get anything..

End: $93.37
I'm not too disappointed, although I did finish under for the session, I feel I avoided many disasters. I did not get much luck, or good timing (people fold to UTG raise with aces, etc.), but I did capitalize on the small opportunities, and pots I was in. Hopefully, next session I will get more luck, and better boards when I'm ahead preflop. For now, I'm going to lie down and rest for a bit, maybe I'll fall asleep.
Session was approx. 2 hours 40 minutes
