Set mining

Been playing on Bodog, all weekend, with some success.
Some US bloggers refer to it as Bodonkey and I can see why. I couldn't get anything going and was only $80 up on Sat and early Sunday, despite playing more than 800 hands, but I knew it was just a matter of time. Too many idiots...

RIVER Kd

I've put the last hand through an odds calculator.
Pre-flop I was actually ahead with a 36% chance of winning vs AJ's 34.75% and A7's 23.5% - although my foes had a 5% chance of splitting.

The flop, however, changed all that.

I moved to a 68% favourite, AJ down to 0.66% with A7 now at 30.5%

I papped my pants when I saw my foes cards after the 7 turn, but A7 now was down to 28.5% against my 71.5% with AJ drawing dead.

The bonus/rake system for the first month on Bodog, is pretty generous and I'm racking up the points. On the downside they only allow three-tabling, which will limit my gains somewhat.

I'm up $250 from my $500 deposit, with $25 of bonus to come, and this has put my roll up to $4,200.
