On a night of poker I mean.
I would say this was a tought night, a night I'd prefer to quit, and I sort of did. I was down just a little after half an hour or so, when I got hold of a set of Qyeens and stacked a set of Jacks. Wow, poor guy. I thnk this is the first time I've done that to someone. In the next hour, I saw 3 set over sets, WTF? I've taken a couple of shots at NL50 over the last couple of weeks, felt litk I was playing well, so ventured across. Got it in with a set of 2's, 50BB stack called with overpair and hit his set, another set over set. Then got a full stack in with TPTK, lost to a pure flush draw, so again got in as big favourite and lost. Not a happy run.
I quit, went to PS to play some of the battle of the leaderboard SNG's. Whoah, these sucked even worse. 8 tables overall, 6 times leader, 4 3rds, doh!!!
I pondered my next move and decided to keep grinding at Red Kings, NL25 still. Down again early, probably a BI, some suckouts and marginal hands I had to fold on the turn. I'd chosen one table with a $160 stack to my right (which I'm OK with), and he was unpredictable. His opening raises varied between 50c and $7, including limps. I basically doubled up off someone else, and figured the table was getting pretty dry so almost left. But the other tables mixed around a bit in players so I stuck through. I doubled up again with top set, and was sitting nicely on about $80 on a $25 table. Here I hit KK and had two customers, including the $160. Long story short, I very nearly doubled up here against the big stack, and was sitting on $150. I left the table on $200, 800BB's. The other tables also went well, so I finished the night up quite well despite some NL50 losses.
Reasonably happy with my play, held onto a few hands and called a bit too much to be a consistant winning style
