Bad night playing $3/$6
My shitty day continued when I started playing again tonight. It's one of those days when you miss every draw, everyone else hits every draw, they run down your big pairs, etc. Once again, I started off by getting stuck about $450 in an hour, but got myself back to about -$120 again.
I must admit that when I start losing I start to get paranoid that I'm going to get bluffed and I pay people off when I really shouldn't. It's really emotionally tough to be getting destroyed by a guy who jumps 3 raises with A5s and calls $11 out of the SB with T9o. The best part is that tonight's donkey was actually ridiculing other people when they drew out! For example, he made fun of some guy who called a raise out of the BB with JTs, flopped a flush draw, called down and hit the river, then bet the river and showed the flush. Meanwhile, limping UTG with Q5o and 3-betting an unknown player with 46o are great plays (he did this to me on my 4th hand at the table).
I really have to work on not tilting as much when I'm taking a major beating -- because the beatings are bound to happen. That's another reason I used be anti-cash-game, because you have the potential to seriously damage your bankroll in a few bad sessions.
Ok, let's look at some hands now. First we have the ole miss-the-zillion-outer hand. Nothing special about this one, it just sucks when it happens over and over again.

I don't know what the hell this guy's plan was... maybe he thought I had QJ or something. I like how he doesn't even try to win the pot by check-raising the flop or turn or something. Also note how he fails to bet or check/raise the river himself.

This is the hand I talked about above where the guy 3-bets me with 64o on my 4th hand at the table. Then there's the guy who calls 2 more bets out of the BB with A2o and calls 2 bets cold on the flop with the gutshot. Well-played fellas...

One more. This is just another one of those "WTF are you doing?" kinds of hands where the guy hows up with totally random cheese on the end.
