Again a bad game. Elimined in 5th after losing my concentration in the following hand. I was lucky in a previous steal from the button with Q4 (I was not stealing often and the cards were cold) facing A4. I hit two Q on the flop and river.

In the elimination hand I should have bet less and fold to any raise. Thats easy to figure this out now, but it takes a moment out of focus to make these silly mistakes (thats why I play 1 table at a time...to minimize these moments).

No-Limit Hold'em, $300.00 BB (6 handed) - Hold'em Manager Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

CO ($1900)
Button ($1357.50)
SB ($790)
Hero (BB) ($2210)
UTG ($3535)
MP ($5207.50)

Preflop: Hero is BB with 8, K
1 fold, MP calls $300, 3 folds, Hero checks

Flop: ($750) Q, J, K (2 players)
Hero bets $600, MP raises $1200, Hero raises $1310 (All-In), MP calls $710

Turn: ($4570) 4 (2 players, 1 all-in)

River: ($4570) 2 (2 players, 1 all-in)

Total pot: $4570

Results in white below:
Hero had 8, K (one pair, Kings).
MP had 10, A (straight, Ace high).
Outcome: MP won $4570


I'm aware this hand was poorly played...many hands here beat me (QJ, K9+, AT). Need to stay in focus.

Interestingly, the guy who elimined me has a ROI of -30% over 1000 games. A negative balance of 600$. In his last 10 games he lost 8, was 3rd once and (unfortunately for me) won his last game.

Its so frustrating to lose to those players. Just to give you an idea. After my elimination, another player was elimined. They were 4 players. However, one of them was sitout for a long time (connection problem, perhaps) and he had less than 1BB. The player on his rigth decided to shove with AJ....and got called by A5.
The caller made a straight on the river and that other guy might be much more frustrated than I am. The sitout managed to get ITM...thats weird.

For the first time I was 3 consecutive times "Out of the money". I'll try another game later (need to chill out) and if I lose again, I'll get back to 0,60 games to get my money back. In this case, unless my confidence and my money are back, I'll stick to the 0,6 games for a while.
