Daily Ramblings
Last night I loaded up a few sit&go’s of various buyin’s after I deposited $200 into my pokerstars account. Started with a $20/180 and a $30/18, losing both quick. Then in a fit of rage, loaded up 6 tourneys from $10-$30 and managed to cash in exactly zero. Because I was so happy, I figured why not keep going on this rush, and loaded up 2 $50/18 and a $20/180 tourney. Probably in spite of myself, I ended up winning one of the $50 tourneys and ended up finally cashing in that 180 MTT/Sit&Go stars puts on with a 9th place finish. I probably should have ended up with a better finish since I donked off my 2nd place stack by calling an all-in reaise with A8 – smart.
So all in all - not a terrible night despite its early unpleasantness.
Woke up this morning and loaded up 2 1/2 NL tables over at poker room, which is my least favorite site so far. Ended up down a buy-in after some flounder called my re-reraise preflop with 96 in the SB and hit the nut straight to take out my aces. This “down a buy-in” is becoming a theme I’m not warming up to, and need to start to consider making some tough laydowns…
Speak of the devil, I saved a hand from last night that I thought was a particularly good laydown. And I know how exciting laydowns are, so I’m going to post it.

Flops like this with over pairs for me have been the bane of my existence. I have learned to proceed with caution since it is very likely someone would have limped in and called a raise with JQ, 44, 9T, etc.

That’s probably the first time I’ve folded in that situation, where I would almost always reraise before. What I figured, facing a raise and a re-raise into the pre-flop raiser (me) on a pretty scary board, I’m probably beaten! Genius! And the validation of being right made it that much better.
Back to today. After dropping a few hundred on the site that won’t be mentioned, I went back to poker stars in another fit of rage to play some higher stakes sit & gos. Got the courage to buy-in to a $100 18 person tourney and actually did pretty well. I ended up in a disappointing 5th when I decided that the chip leader had been pushing around the table long enough and decided to take my pathetic little AK over the top of him all in. Clearly that was the wrong move as he had a pair and it held up and I was out. From 2nd to 5th in a second. I guess you are supposed to fold AK in that position.
Still angry, I quickly joined a $50 heads up game just to spite myself and hopefully clear out that last remaining little bit of cash in my stars account. Ended up being the most hilarious match of my life. Actually it was so short I’ll post it here.
