July 25 - Trainwreck

Holy shit. Today sucked. As some of you know I usually take Wednesdays off. I played a little bit and won about $650 altogether today, and after dinner I decided to come back. Big mistake.

http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/238391 - This was one of the first hands I got stacked on. Thank god he wasn't a full stack, but it was close enough. I don't really think I can play this any other way.

http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/238393 - This hand happened pretty much right after the other hand. I figured he was raising flop lightly (I've seen him do it before) and I figured he'd bluff a scare card. Unfortunately for me he had it this time and I didn't fill on the river. Guess I could've 3-bet the flop but it achieves the same result because he's a spewmonkey that doesn't fold a draw.

http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/238394 - So fucking nasty, but oh so standard.

http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/238396 - Ughhh.. guy was a 50/10 or something ridiculous like that.. I really don't see any way to get away from that one either.

http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/238397 - MadSkillz is a really over-aggro regular.. I figured he was raising my preflop isolation pretty light, and yankee35 snap-called his 3-bet. Yankee was running 47/0 at this session and I really thought he didn't have anything and I thought I had a bit of fold equity against MadSkillz but apparently I was wrong. Mehhh.

http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/238399 - My hand just kept getting better and better vs a crazy unknown. Sigh.

http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/238401 - I barely ever bluff this river but the guy was so loose preflop that I figured he could fold a hand like he had or maybe TT-JJ. Unfortunately for me, he makes an awesome call with 2nd pair and a counterfeited kicker. Obviously I never have a hand so he's good.

So I took a break and headed to nl100 because it's so easy there.. Right.

http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/238402 - Standard KK v AA.. I really wanted to fold to his shove but I can't do it against retards.. I just can't.

http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/238403 - Yeah this was a bad play because nothing that I'm crushing is calling my shove here and he is drawing very live pretty often, if he doesn't have me killed already.

http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/238404 - Again, I was getting AA a lot today, but it never holds obv. Probably a bad shove again because what is he gonna call with here? 99? Doubt it. Sigh I suck.

-1300 after dinner.. total of -580 overall in cash games.

Also spewed about $120 in the $3r and played the $27.50 freezeout as well. Sighhhh my shot at nl200 was going so well, back to nl100 with 40 buyins.

I should've just taken today off.

Haha I had a very similar experience today too when I was giving 100NL a try. I lost hands like QQ vs KQ who surprisingly went all in pre and then catches his king on the river. I lost 3 buy ins at 100NL and another 3 at 50NL.

Just a horrible day. I'm actually glad that FTP went down cuz I think if I played as long as you did, I would've gone on monkey tilt. Anyways tommorow will be a better day
