Played two nights in a row earlier this week.
First night have to admit i ran pretty well, played $2/3 from 4:30pm until i had to meet a mate for dinner at 7:30, up $400.
No real hands of note, ideal table full of pre flop limp ==> loose callers.
Took down a pot with QQ's in the CO after having raised pre to $25, 4 callers (3 limp/calls), junk flop no draws, loose player out of the BB tried to take it for $45, i made it $90 and took it down, he showed TPTK, surprised he made the laydown. The min raise is underrated live I think.
Few other $30-60 hands i can't remember.
Went out had dinner, then came and played for another couple of hours, managed to get my KK all in pre for $180ish against A:diamond:K:diamond:, held up.
Then played a big pot with 88 one of my favorite hands, couple of limpers, in LP i make it $20, get a call from the button and one the limpers.
Flop comes 4
8 black 10, and EP makes it $35, i make it $95 and this gets smooth called by the button.
EP folds and the out comes the A:spade:. I think for ages and make it $170, and he moves in on me, enough to put me all in. River is the A.
He turns over 44 which is unlucky and i take it down.
According to him, EP layed down A10.
Play for a while and win and lose another couple small-medium pots. Walk away 1:30ish up about $950-1k for the day.
The next day finish work and decide to head in, buy in for $200.
First half hour, dealt KK in MP, first hand aside from I think a checked BB.
UTG+1, a player I have played with before and respect makes it $20, i make it $60 and its folded back around. He makes it $100, and i put the rest of my chips in.
I've been dealt Kings v Aces, part of me suspected it but I can't fold Kings there with a third of my stack already in. Sucks but what can you do. Back in to the pocket and out comes another $200.
20 Mins later, Kings again out of the small or big blind i forget. Raised to $25ish by a loose player with a deep stack in MP. 2 or 3 calls.
F**k it i think I'm not playing KK OOP when there is already $75 in the pot, so I dump it in pre for $200 again. In hindsight just made me look like I was tilting.
Loose Player Snap Calls, rest folds. He turns over 99 and says "SHIT!!" when he sees the Kings. 9 in the window. Go to a 4 flush on the turn to tear my heartstrings a little more but miss. FML.
He then tells me he put me on "AQ or AJ or something".
Hand back in pocket, digging deeper into last nights winnings.
Then the worst one is this 1-2hrs later, Dealt AKo UTG and make it $20. 2 Calls.
Flop is K:spade: J:diamond: 5:diamond:.
I make it $50 looking to take it down quickly. One of the callers is a youngish player who is semi-pissed and has been warned for acting out of turn at least once before (having little influence over the pot), he's won a couple lucky pots and is sitting on $250ish.
Anyway, another regular with some game is next to act, sitting with $170 ish. He's about to throw in his cards when drunk young guy calls eagerly out out of turn. Tight reg thinks, then decides to move in for $170, dyg calls, I call and we see a turn. Bang 3:diamond:. At this point I'm steaming cos i know the regular has a flush that he would never of chased with out dyg's oot call. Dealer could care less.
I then bet $75 into a side pot and he open folds QJ.
The reg turns over 8:diamond:7:diamond:. He's a nice bloke and genuinely says bad luck and explains that he would never of moved in there without the out of turn call, buys me a drink. I can't blame him, but I am fuming & 600 Down inside 2.5hrs.
Switch tables and buy in once more and after continually having to fold crappy middle pairs and SC's that i never should of called with, i find myself all in for $120 with Jacks against AQo pre. Q on the turn and I am done for the evening $800 down.
Still $100 up for the 2 day period and still >$500 up for the week, so I'm not as angry as I otherwise would be.
Probably should have gone in the vent thread.
Any comments on the hands are welcome, but all in all I don't think I did too much wrong.
I forget who said it, perhaps Ashley12 or Cartman but a sporty drive home (read road tilt) really soothes the soul after a big losing session.
