Car Crash

Even I saw it coming, lost an absolute load over the rest of the weekend. Played everything up to $5 $10 NLH & PLO, Plus 3 6eur on laddies. There was definitely a big risk of this happening. I cant really feel sorry for self but I can still dwell on the big pots I lost! Just looked back over last 2 sessions and all the big pots (which im counting as $750+) Ive had it in best most of the time, not everytime but majority, hands just havent held for me, to be fair ive usually only been in for 50-65% of buy in so the other player has been willing to gamble vs me,

$5 $10 table on BF summed up day, Lost 3 $1k pots, 2 when I had set vs flush draw who hit then the last one I had JQH on 10h kh 2 board vs kq and I missed the lot. That'll tech me playing higher stakes than I should be

Even tried a last gasp spin up on $2 $5 PLO to try and salvage something, got my $160 up to $360 twice only to loose two double up pots, both all in on flop, one with AAJX on J 8 4 (2diamonds) board vs AT36 (3 diamonds) and he hit d, very last pot me 10 10 9 2, vs 6647 on 10 5 6 board, he hit a 3. The other $160 buy in I lost on that table was to soap but he had me crushed, him 1010xx vs my A3QX on AT3Q board, so cant moan vs that one, I think 3 pair should be a set ;-) This really was a desperate last gasp as no idea what im doing in PLO, but atleast I pushed all in with best hand twice in my 2 big pos

May not play for a while as im incapable of playing at normal stakes and incapable of winning higher, bad combination! Did enjoy the gamble but horrible when you run slightly bad when cant afford to

Good Luck everyone

Mental

Friday, late night is the only time I get to play these days, but I make the most of it. Logged on at 11pm tonight with only intention to play $5k GTD turbo on Betfair. Started well doubled up AK vs AQ. Won some smaller pots and was 5th with 25 left. Then got AA in sb, 2 limpers and button pushes, hes 3rd in chips so would give me chip lead by long way. him q9, 2 9's on flop and goodnight.......well not quite

Decided to try play a bit of $2 $5 cash with full buy ins, put my mind to playing properly and no looseness or tilting. I then proceeded to run horribly, recently ive played pap but thought i played ok tonight. Had cack stuff lie all in QQ vs j10 on 10 high flop who hit etc etc (vs half buy ins). Top set done by flush draw etc Suddenly im £600 down, easily done at those stakes.

Decided to risk another £600 on laddies, 2 half buy ins on 3 6 euro turbo tables. Started bad loosing £230ish through loose play, also as playing two tables hit flush on one by river, aggro guy bets 70euro, im thinking of how much to raise and time out (u only get 10 secs! doh) that was v annoying, but maybe he had higher flush ;-)

Anyway stuck with it, i never tilted, cards eventually hit me and won everything back, big pots with 78s, on 4 7 8 board vs jj and I filled up. Also KK vs AJ, who I played perfectly to entice all in shove pre flop (based on previous hands), was actually a ace on flop but with 2 kings. Another few decent size pots won and lost, end up logging off about £100 up for night

Its car crash poker, definitely not +ev in long term, it isnt pretty but fun to play, I just need a session where i run hot or lucky at the start and i'll make a fortune, but theres always that element of going bust that keeps it exciting!
