Embarrassing myself into playing well (hopefully)...

Postby MVPSPORTS » Thu Jun 30, 2005 12:25 am

Okay... So anyone who's read most of my posts knows that I don't generally know what the fuck I'm talking about... But, my recent play has led me to trying an intervention (where I work in the Psych Dept it seems to work... So, I figure what the hell... can't get any worse...)...

Here's my dilemma... Amazingly enough, I'm actually not playing as bad as normal, and am actually making a couple bucks playing exclusively $30 and $50SNGs, which is not the norm for me, as I'm usually much more of a terrible cash player than a terrible SNG player... But, for GOD KNOWS WHAT REASON... I seem to be having the hardest time in the world letting go of overpairs... I've had this happen to me in 3 SNGs in the last couple days, and it's REALLY starting to piss me off...

So, my solution is to completely embarass myself by posting my horrible play here, and having you guys rip me an ass... I'm hoping that it's cathartic and slightly less painful than kicking my CPU, which hurt a LOT...

Please feel free to rip into me, as lord knows I need it after this embarrassment of a play...

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t15 (10 handed)

UTG+1 (t800)
UTG+2 (t855)
MP1 (t800)
MP2 (t940)
Hero (t800)
CO (t660)
Button (t760)
SB (t785)
BB (t800)
UTG (t800)

Preflop: Hero is MP3 with [Qh], [Qc].
1 fold, UTG+1 calls t15, 1 fold, MP1 calls t15, MP2 calls t15, Hero raises to t85, 1 fold, Button calls t85, 2 folds, UTG+1 calls t70, MP1 calls t70, MP2 folds.

Flop: (t377.50) [6s], [6c], [8s] (4 players)
UTG+1 checks, MP1 checks, Hero bets t300, Button folds, UTG+1 calls t300, MP1 folds.

Turn: (t977.50) [Js] (2 players)
UTG+1 checks, Hero checks.
Anyone wanna explain why I didn't bet this, and you'll get a $5 bonus, transferrable via you coming to my house and I'll give it to you... One stipulation, me being a total dumbass doesn't count as a legitimate reason to check behind...

River: (t977.50) [5h] (2 players)
He pushed... I called like a TOTAL ASSHOLE.......!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WTF am I thinking here... ??? Why would I check behind the turn if I was gonna call an allin on the river...????

Final Pot: about 1600 chips...

Results in white below:
UTG+1 has As 5s (flush, ace high).
Hero has Qh Qc (two pair, queens and sixes).
Outcome: UTG+1 wins 1600.


Honestly, what the hell did I think I was beating after that river...??? One last "Boy do I suck", and back to the tables... Thanks in advance guys for the criticism...

UTG+1 shouldn't have even seen that turn. He made a bad call preflop and another one after the flop.

Don't have anything to add to what you've already said about the turn and the river.
