AA vs JJ (Bust)
I'm beginning my cash games with a rant. I maintain my stakes at $0.10/$0.25, just try in for one more time. I started the day early with an AA vs JJ, we went all-in pre but his cards weren't turn over until the showdown (you can choose this in the setting). When I saw kings came my jaw drop I knew that was it, but it was the J in the turn that made him a set. 2 outs to suck me out and he did, full buy-in gone.
KK vs AA (Bust)
Later I was dealt KK, and this time round I went in pre against an AA. Of course I lost, how can I get so lucky than the other guy who suck me out? <-- typically thoughts when tilt. Another full buy-in gone.
AA vs 88 (Bust)
Third time I was dealt AA again. This time I three betted a passive guy who seldom bet after flop, you heard me seldom+after the flop. He called. Flop came QQ8, he shoved. I was uh? I put him on kings when I called him, did I put him on kings or did I wished he had kings..? He turn over 88 and took all my money.
After 3 such encounters in less than 500 hands who do you think still can play on? No matter how I loved and respected the mental game of poker and how it did helped my game, time and time again these beats still get to my head. And then I had my fair share of good variance.......
AT vs QQ
I think I was somehow tilted or maybe I am not that good at multi-tabling, I called this guy's raise, who was taunting the other guy at the table, 3 of us are in the hand, because the other guy accused him of a bluff and he said nextime you call. Flop came T52. He just shoved, a serious over bet. The other guy folded and I would fold if I was thinking properly but I mis-clicked a call. I think I thought it was just a standard raise and damn I instantly felt doomed. Turn came another T and I sucked out, surprisingly I wasn't bad mouthed.
66 vs 44
Called a raise and flop J64. Turn 3 and river 7, almost couldn't get paid because of the stupid board. I called his raise on flop and then lead the bet on turn, he re-raise me and I 4-bet him because I was out of position and wanted to lead the river bet. I shoved on river bet and he called. One of my biggest pot.
JQ vs AJ
Flop KT7 and he was raising like 1bb and I was like getting free cards. Turn A and he raised standard bet I flat called. River 4 and I lead the bet about half pot sized because I didn't think he had any cards that would re-raised me so hoping for a call, but he re-raised a pot size and I shoved and get called. I had the nut straight and there was no flush or paired on the board.
66 vs A?
Flop a quads, I think guy hits an on the river and bets. I re-raised too high and he didn't call.
33 vs A9
Same guy. I think this time he thought for so long and called me in the river with nut flush, not easy to lay down against a guy who shoved at u on river the second time. I think easier to see if I copy n paste below from poker-tracker..

So I ended the day with about +2.5 buy-ins surprisingly. So tiring mentally and I needed a break, read some blogs and poker video in youtube. I am basically unemployed now and grinding everyday. Staying at my gf house in the meantime and I so much free time to do whatever I want. Today I will just focus on cash games, and good luck to me. Talking about video I came across a few Daniel Negreanu's video which I'm truly amazed.. this is one. Enjoy!
