Very up! Great day, new choice of play?

Woke up today, loaded a $4+.40 180 SNG, and then opened up a HU 0.25/0.50 cash game. This was a nice way to start the day, about 50 hands into the session:

Won about $65 playing HU, then I left and focused on the SNG since it was starting to get a little deeper in it and I wanted to get my tournament/sng results out of the red that they are in right now. That didn't go too smoothly. Made a bad river bluff with 6s9s on a 4s5s6hAd7h board, and got called with AA. It was either a bad bluff or a bad call, I can't really figure that one out.

Went and played 2 $6+0.50 PLO 6-max SNGs, which I did terribly in. So I moved onto 0.25/0.50 HU PLO. Had a good run there:

It's always good to get positive reinforcement from the guy you're beating: "basti-rocks: u play too good for me^^"

I started playing badly and getting a bad run of cards, until this SICK hand:

He went broke a few hands later with this:

PLO is a SICK cash game, really really sick. I was up to about $150 on the table until the guy I was playing with rivered a flush when I had a straight. I still made about $55 on PLO, though.

Moved back to 0.25/0.50 HU NLHE, and had a good run with a fish there:

Another good hand soon followed:

My run had been getting better and better all day. Lost a bit of money playing the $6+0.60 6max NLHE SNGs, but won a $22 HyperTurbo for T$55 which I just turned into $55.35. Won more in 0.25/0.50 HU NLHE. Then I tried winning some satellite seats. Tried an $11+0.70 DS to the Sunday Million which didn't work out so well when my AQ got beaten by A6 with all the money going in preflop. Then I tried a couple Step1 Seats for the LAPT. Lost the first then won the second. Now I'm very tired after a long day of poker. Going to see how far I can get in the steps tomorrow.
