Hi everybody,
finally back from holiday. Sadly i don't had much time to deal with poker related stuff but guess it's still OK to have some pokerfree days to refresh your mind.
Yesterday i've played ~850 hands with the same results as the last two session, somewhere around -60$. After the long break i've tryed to approach the tables somewhat passively to get the feel back and than continue with my normal agression. It went well, didn't really had much to win with but still was able to come up with a medium profit until i've arrived to a hand where i lost a stack. Try to describe the scenario.
MP nit opens, CO nit calls, BTN me calls with TT, BB calls.
FLOP 22T. MP opens for 3/4 pot, CO calls, I made a small raise, BB and MP folds CO calls.
TURN 7. CO checks, and i check very quick behind.
RIVER Q: CO opens for 3/4 pot, i shove he calls with QQ to win the pot.
I somewhat tried to show weakness with the check from the turn, wanted to show that the flop raise was a bad steal attempt. I would think i lost value here with not betting the turn because he would call me with any overpair.
Yeah i have leaks in my thought process but i do think actually that chasing the nit away here is a very bad idea, and not shoving river also. I can't be affraid of him, the only hand that beats me is QQ and 22. but sure get a call from JJ, KK, AA, AQs, 77. He flats with QQ from CO really surprised me actually :-(
Coming from this shock i've lost 3 bis in 200 hand where my dear maniac villain spiked his outs on turn everytime.
Clearly i was on tilt and i should have stand up right after the 1st bi loss after the hand above because that one affected my play and while i do think i should have played it somewhat differently.
It's time to say good bye to the NOLOOKSTREAKOMETER. 25 sessions in--a-row without looking into the results i think i'm comfortable to say : i've done it.
Tomorrow is a coaching session but before i will have a session, hope to bounce back and regain some confidence.
Until next time, GL at the tables.
