I Feel Sick (Read: I SUCK!)

[MTPaid]

My $50NL experience has been a horror so far in a short sample. This latest table is enough for me to pack it in for a while. 58 hands played and I stacked off 2x. About 1/4 of that was actually bad play on my part that I can see.

(Feedback and 2nd opinions - like that's bad luck or yes you suck - appreciated)

Hand #24: $45.75 to start.
I open-raise MP2 to $2 [Qs]. CO calls. SB pushes $12.95 total. I insta-call. CO folds.
A word about SB.......
76/33/29 - So far had raised and called re-raise w/ Q5s and pushed Q on flop. Won that hand. Also had limped J7o UTG, called a raise, and was part of a 3-way AI on the Flop of J8A (2 spades). Hit Jack on River.
Here SB turns over [7h]. SB's hand holds up and he/she was nice enough to laugh and call me dumb after the 7 flopped.

Hand #31: $31.55 to start.
UTG+1 limps, I limp MP1 [Th], MP2 limps, CO limps, Button limps, SB folds, BB checks. 6 to flop.
[7c][Ac] Pot $3.25
Checked to me, I bet $2, MP2 raises to $9.25.
A word about MP2......
38/24/27 - So far he had re-raised a PFR and call w/ 66 and called an AI when 2 paint flopped. He had turned over hands like 23 offsuit at showdown and was working on his 2nd stack.
I call the raise because I want him to stack off with a worse Ace or a non-Ace. I'm really only afraid of A7 because with a 14% PFR he would have raised any Ace better than mine, right?
Pot $21.75
Now I'm afraid of A5 too. I check and he puts me in, I call. He has [Kc].
I've now been stacked the only 3 times I've hit trips at this level. I was outkicked 2x and the other time, my opponent hit his kicker on the river. I don't think I could have gotten away from this hand the way it was played vs this particular opponent.

Hand #37: $48.50 to start.
I royally EFFED up this river. This one was my fault completely. I was sort of on tilt.
MP2 limps, I limp [3s] CO (my first mistake - not raising maybe), Button limps. SB calls, BB checks.
[5s][Qs] Pot $2.50
SB checks, BB min-bets, MP2 folds, I call (I know your not supposed to draw to a flush on paired board, but this looked like it was going to be a cheap one), Button folds, SB folds.
Pot $3.50
Check, check.
Pot $3.50
BB bets $3.50 and instead of hitting the call Button, some alien takes possession of my brain and raises to $8.50, BB re-raises to $29, and that stupid fuckin alien decides to hit my call button. [2c]. I thought he had a Queen too, but not the boat. Of course his boat completes my A-high flush.

Last Hand: The kicker $19.60 to start.
UTG limps, I limp UTG+1 [Ad] (maniacs still to act), MP1 limps, CO raises to $3.25 (bingo), Maniac calls (jackpot), SB re-raises to $8 (heaven), 2 folds, I push $19.60 total, 2 folds, Maniac calls $10.45 total, SB calls $19.60 total.
Pot $54.40
SB shows [Qc]
Maniac shows [8c]
[Qd][6c]
Knew that asking to win this pot would have been way too much. Can't get it in any better than that.

Yup. I needed that.

Why aren't you fully stacked?
I usually don't reload until I drop below 50BB. I was fully loaded for the 1st and 3rd hand though. At the end I felt myself going on tilt so I'd rather not put any more $$$ on the table when I feel like I'm not playing my best. As I said, I just moved up to $50NL the past week and constantly reloading and then dropping 4 or 5 stacks instead of 2 would have been pretty painful to the bankroll.
