November hurts already. First we have:

This hand was difficult. I flopped two pair on a straight drawy board. I’m worried about AQ right off the bat which is why I just called his .20 bet on the flop. Also, if he raised with AJ, AQ, AK he’s probably sticking around this hand. Figured I was set with my full house on the turn. Since I have position I just flat call his .50 hoping that maybe he’s drawing now. Hindsight being what it is, I should’ve just flat called his river bet, I think. AK destroys me. I, in my infinite retardedness, didn’t even think about him having rockets. Ah well, c’est la vie. Looking back I played this hand terribly and deserved the loss. I should’ve raised the flop and the turn if he tried to lead out again. And the A on the river I should’ve given much more thought to before pushing like an asshole. Lesson learned.

The next hand I played (on a different table) went disastrously as well. Admittedly, I was probably more than a little tilty when playing QTo the way I did. But the beat was still sick.

So I got frisky with QTo. This player was unknown to me. His re-raise wasn’t especially strong. Had put him on maybe a suited A or a mid-pair. So I was fairly certain I had the best of it on the flop. By the turn I have his range at: TT+,88,AQs+,KQs,QJs,AQo+,KQo,QJo.

I have 62.6% equity in the hand at this point.

At the turn, the pot is $2.35. Villain has $3.02 left. If I check it to him and let him push, I’m getting 56.2% which would make my call +EV. So I figure I’ll put my money in first to keep up the aggression.

When he turned over KJo I was thrilled. First, I couldn’t believe he re-raised me with that, second I was 95% to win this pot. Until the two-outer on the river hit. I got my money in good and that’s the best anyone can do in this game even though I had no business being in there with QT.

Here’s hoping for better results tonight.

Biggest win came from flopping a set with a pair of 6s. Had two villains willing to give me all of their money. AK I could see losing money here. How A6 donk could’ve have figured he was losing at any point in this hand is beyond me. But I’ll take his money nonetheless. Total won: $7.48

Biggest loss comes at the hand of one of the superdonks from my winning hand. He managed to get quite lucky which, for me, resulted in a loss of $5.89.
