Versatility

Landed in a new region last night; played poker since the blackjack options in this particular city are less than ideal for non-rated players (driving to a better spot momentarily).

I caught some good hands last night, and they held up - leading to a nice win.  The key to playing low stakes no-limit - where people generally go too far with their hands - is to wait for hands with solid value and then maximize the hell out of them.  If I catch a set out of position in a raised multiway pot, I'm betting big into the field.  I want pot-sized action on all streets (as long as the board is reasonably dry), and generally at least one opponent will oblige with an overpair/top pair top holding.

The players in this room were particularly bad in that regard.  Need to think about working more poker into my repertoire.
