Down $10 of my $50 over 300 hands. Ah, my journey is off to a bad start... with this end quickly with me bleeding away chips until I lose all my money?

Its like I was on tilt these first few hands

Here, are amazing displays of BAD poker. Mostly to remind me what I’m doing wrong:

hands like this one where everyone folds to a normal raise made me want widen my raising range...

I though it suspicious when he called my pot size flop bet. then he bets into me on the turn.... alarm bells ringing, but then I though hell, this is micro stakes, must just have a king weaker kicker. I've waited so long for a goot hand... IT MUST BE GOOD CAUSE I HAVE WAITED A WHILE. how stupid of me. TPTK beats very little that would play like this here. this is not a tournament. I am a donk.

guess I should fold to re-raise? is that what a good nit would do?

haha, the real money table was alot tighter than I though, but making a move like this = bad? the way to beat other weak-tights is.... like this?
Still, even if this was a good behavior for my table, my bet sizing is just silly.

vomitus. must have been on tilt to call that flop bet. I’ll fix this in my mind so I don’t do it again.

horrible spew on Ace rag. Do not look if you have a weak stomach.
hmm… this isn't a good flop to C bet is it >_> <_< >_< TILT!

4 straight board, and I have the low end of it... I fold it to a min raise T_T

I think... this is not the way to play in a full ring... this hand is important to me.. it’s the way I have been playing in short handed tourneys, and I mustn’t.
Fold on the flop, this is not a good spot.

I am confused... is this OESD + backdoor flush a call at this limit?
Hmm, I would have to spend about $0.50 + $1.50 (assumed turn bet) to make ~$4 on 35% of the time. So I spend $1.5 to make $1.4 on average... assuming I stack him...
Or say I just called the first bet to see the turn... then at 18% chance of making my straight on the turn I make 0.72 on implied odds... so not a bad call then?

I’m happy with the way I played here.

Heh, guess I honestly though it wouldn’t be much different to high stakes play money...
I though the tables would be loose and passive, but there are alot of tight players here.
Also, I think I was nervous playing with really money and on party's annoying software

Right! now I've identified some places to improve on! I'll get back to it with a properly tight game.

Just like walking over a log.
Focus.
