Oops and downs

Played some €10 NLHE yesterday.
I went up a buy-in, then took a break.
I came back and lost three buy-ins. One buy-in because of tilt, two because of bad luck.
I cam back and won two buy-ins.
I quit the day at about even.

Tonight I hit €5 6-max NLHE, and just dominated the table.
The one good guy left, and I'm pretty sure it was because I was causing him a headache.

This was one of my last hands of the game:

I thought the guy had the King or flush and was doing the rope-a-dope on me. I had been pretty aggressive, but the way I played this hand, I figured that he'd only call if he was trying to trap me so I might as well bet big.

I'm glad I was wrong and won a a pot that translates into about $17.

So what am I doing with € anyway?
PokerStars now has Euro games, and for a 2% fee will exchange $ chips for € chips. I wanted to play the new tables, so I transferred $98 into €65 or whatever it was. Now I have a short term goal of turning that into €100, so I'll hit the micro limit games on occasion to build it up.
One I get there, I don't know. I'll probably just leave it there until something interesting comes up.

Euro in trouble

I exchanged some $ for Euros.
I've been tinkering with the PS Euro games. I did really well, because people play dumb.

But today I'm getting killed. The two buy-in profit is gone, and I'm about 2 buy-ins down from where I was. Sick sick stuff.
Like, I'll snap off a bluff...
