As sad as my on-line results have been, my live play continues in the opposite direction.
Harrahs $2/5 NLHE last night, bought in for $500, cashed out for $2209. Sweet night. I had a dead-on read on every player at the table at all times. I can just feel where players are at when I am focused. I made three of my best reads ever for river calls with weakish hands.
As I was driving home I realized something -- I did not lose even one hand at showdown all night. I bailed before the river, bluffed before the river or won at showdown. That is a receipe for running a table.
I so wish I could jump on a plane and hit the Rio cash games right now.

As for on-line play, I've found a game that is profitable -- 2-7 triple draw. Its actually a fun game, and not filled with sharks. I'm not sure who plays this, but the majority are weak players. I would assume anyone spending a significant amount of time playing this would know what they're doing, but I guess not.
This game seems intuitive for me, and I ran some calculations on Friday to get a better grasp on the math of the game. I don't have the math completely figured out, but I think I've got a lot of it. I reviewed this section in Super/System and I will read some more.
