    My nights poker is over.

    Played like an idiot tonight. In the orfy I lost half my stack early doors in a marginal spot....A10<AQ with 2 aces on the board, I then proceeded to spew off the rest with an ill timed bluff with zero fold equity.

    In the £1.10 deepy I went from 1/41 to out in 31st!!! I lost 3 consecutive flips, not sure if I was getting involved needlessly, but would prob play every hand the same again.

    Had one cash in the £2.20 deepy to recover some of the losses. Overall though I'm not happy with how I played tonight. Lot's of mistakes and making the wrong decision when faced with a difficult spot......hey ho tis poker. I'm stopping for the night now though as I can only lose money if I carry on!!

    I'm taking the money and running lol. I know I would be annoyed with myself if I had bought in and lost, realistically it's £33 out of a £196 roll.......not worth it.

    I have bought into the mini though so maybe I can run good there! Also playing the 2 deepys.

    Last night I didn't cash in any of the deepys, although I was sitting with a nice stack towards the latter stages of the £2.20 only to blow it with a couple of dodgy calls!! In the mini BH I got the late stages before busting out A6<KQ........I did take one head prize though.

    I did finish the evening in profit however due to a HU grudge match with someone who had been goading me in the chatbox. I don't normally bite but I had just busted out of the deepy due to my own bad play.......anyway we sat down at a 20nl HU table and I managed to bust him. The hand that did the job was a cooler tbf after I had flopped a set vs his flopped 2 pair. We left on good terms saying no hard feelings etc.....I did feel slightly annoyed with myself for biting and isn't something I plan to do again in the future!!

    Gonna play a couple of sats for the primo tonight, gl at the tables all.

    BR = £211.20

    Sooooooo annoyed with myself. Got into the primo semi after 3 attempts. Was in good shape sitting in 12/40 with 33 seats and I blow it lol.

    I stupidly called a shorty's button shove on my bb for 1/4 of my stack with QJ think he could have any 2...still a BAD call he had A8 and held. I blow it by running A2 into KK.....the blinds are 1500/3000 and I have 2 bb, if I fold then I'm in really bad shape and if I win that hand then the seat is mine. Bust out in 37th.....close but no cigar. Can't believe I blew it lol

    Not playing anymore tonight.

    BR = £203.40

    Not really playing well atm. I think I'm all pokered out!!! Didn't really feel like playing tonight but made the effort since it was DTD night. I'm having the rest of the week off and will be back on the tables on Friday. I have some work stuff to catch up on so will crack on with that and come back refreshed and eager to play at the end of the week.

    Needless to say I didn't cash in any of the DTD's. I made poor calls, bad folds and bluffed in really bad spots!!!

    Will post two hands below.......was the fold correct in both of these???

    Hand 1.

    I think the call pre is ok? How is play on the rest of the hand? No reads on oppo. Was the river a sigh fold or should I have called?

    hand 2 i dont mind calling here early stages of a mtt n just set mind ya bloating a pot oop makes it tricky to lay when an overcard comes down   

    the line u have took id pot control and check the flop and then bet on this gd turn card for us u would think and bet for value on the river unless we get raised on 

    late stages with this action its a shove with jj early stages im happy to play multiway out of position and set mine

    Hand 1 - I folded.......they told me they had A6 (but they always say that). I was inclined to believe them after the way they played the next few hands and busted out though. Made a note on them.

    Hand 2 - I called. Just did not believe and put them on the busted draw. They had AK.....ooops

    Ok.......I know I said I was not playing anymore this week but I finished work early and decided to have one sat attempt for the turbo open tonight. If I lost it then I would have switched off. Anyway I got through so I will also be playing the mini alongside it.

    Gl at the tables all....I hope to be playing a lot better than recent nights although these turbos are pretty brutal so will also need to run well.

    Back from a few days break. Have decided not to bother with many (if any) UKOPS sats as they could easily eat away at my br with no return.

    Will be playing the micros though. Have reg for the £3.30 £1k run but not bothering with the £5.50 as it is a rebuy.

    Full update later on tonight. Have a great UKOPS all and gl at the tables.

    Had a break and still not playing great. Not sure if I'm making the right decisions either (take the hand above).......seeing as nobody has given their opinion, I did call and he had 55 for the fh. When things aren't going your way you ask yourself if you should/could have folded.......I dunno!!

    Had a min cash in the mini for a slight recovery but I definitely need to improve!!

    Just jam the flop ;)

    I certainly like raising here, start getting the chips in with ze nuts. Can get value from a load of hands as well.

    Readless, turn is a fold, I think. It's a very bizarre shove. But is he doing it with a bare 7 or the wrong end of the straight? There are, however, many players on this site whom I'd be calling quicker here than Usain Bolt!

    waller I'v got to admit  the moment I left your table things turned ugly for me in that mini was moved to a table which had lots of limpers and it wasn't long before I was out I did have 1 other MTT running at the  time a 2KBH with a BI of £11and I did ok their.

    that 1010 hand might be a good one to ask for peoples advice on the clinic because it's not usually common for a player to have 3 consecutive decent hands so knowing that I had already did one jam as the SB and a min raise as the button what's the chances i'm still a good hand.
