They just will NOT believe me, he had JJ (no spade), I think turn CRAI might have been just as good move (maybe even better) as Im not really scared of hiim checking behind on turn and can easily put it in on river anyway,

Sat at a 1000NL table with a 50/30/3 LAG to my right and a 60/10/1 fish on my left, sat in for 1 hour but can't recall ONE flop that I hit.

Worse was that the fish kept floating me every time I CB'd, and every time I CB'd I pretty much had air and had to c/f turn. I basically had to give up on my CB's but still didn't hit anything. -1.8K$ on that table in 1 hour.

Stuck -2.5K$ for a while, luckily I stacked another 400NL guy twice in 2 hands (I turned the nut flush in both, and yes he was steaming) and won some other pots so I finished the session down -1.1K$, no worries...

BR 32100$ I think

And so 2008 starts with a huge EV all in bad run downswing again, currentlyl 3K$ worse than All in EV for january, will this ever stop ?

The 3 Days of doom

Tue -1100$ (QQ<KK 1 stack and some ups and downs)
Wed -2400$ (Inluding KJ vs J6 suckout for -1500$)
Thu -3200$ (Losing 2 coinflips for 1000$ each and 1000$ due to bad play (headache hand below)

About -7K in 3 days (2500 hands) feels outright horrible and I have a bit of a hard time getting it out of my mind. I have literally lost all my All ins these days and when I got it all in against a flushdraw with QQ on a 2d5s6s flop against another reg I expected him to hit his nutflush card which he of course rivered.

My BR has taken quite a bit of a hit due to these days and has dropped back to 26K and I don't think I can continue comfortably on 5/10 right now. So it's definately time for a 400/600NL drop to try and rebuild BR and confidence for the rest of the month. I will probably take another 1000NL shot and hopefully run better that time. This attempt has been quite expensive and it will probably take me a month or so of 2/4 grinding to get back.

I have been running horribly EV wise too, last 3 days I have run 4K worse than EV on my all ins which is quite amazing considering its only 2500 hands. It's sick when you constantly get outdrawn and when the EV curve never seem to even out.
I don't get it, my last 5 out of 6 months I am running way below EV and it just never stops ! Now my Ev curve is going straight for the bottom and as I drop to 400NL there is no way in HELL that variance can give me back the EV money I'm due.


This hand gave me a headache...

Folded to good TAG opens button to $35, I RR with 99 in BB to $125, he calls

Flop:
366 rainbow, pot $250

I bet $200 he thinks 10 seconds and calls.

Turn:
7
Pot $650

Now what? I have about 650 left in my stack which is a potsized bet. If I shove I practically overrepresent my hand and can possibly fold out another mid PP like TT. Also he might be floating me cause the flop doesnt look to have hit me that good either (I could have AQ,AK etc here too right). C/F turn feels very weaktight and I don't think I can give up the pot with this pot/stack ratio, so I push turn all in, he snapcalls with AA

I don't think C/F is too weakight with that 99 hand.

Villain was a TAG on the button who raised. Okay, so he can have a wide range there because of his position.

You RR from the blinds and he calls. Okay, maybe he thinks you are trying to steal against a button raise.

Now the flop is all unders and you lead. Okay, I think you fold out most of the hand range you beat right now from a TAG. Once he calls, I don't think he's folding to any kind of turn action because he's a TAG.

T

99 is way ahead of a TAGs opening range on button which is why I reraised, Electrolux said he called PF a lot of the time which suprised me. I might get away with it and c/f turn as Trod says though if Im playing it this way.

Another crap hand I had agsint a decent player, who is playing flop differently ?

50K hands (my run since october 2007), EV over almost 400 all ins, is it weird that it feels like you don't win your fair share when you ge it in? 10K$ less than expected winnings on all ins alone. Seriously am I the new Alexmr or what is going on here ?!?

that is siiiiiiick
