pure craziness. i dont think i played horribly tonight at all. lost some races. made a couple stupid moves (par for the course, but not as many as earlier).

in fact, i thought i was turning a corner, so to speak.

my bet sizes are larger. my cbets, especially. they are giving me much easier decisions to make. my raises are larger, too. i seem to fold to aggression when i make bigger bets...which can be good and bad, but mostly good...i think.

i am also noticing things going back to the way they were a couple years ago. play solid cards...raise pf...cbet/value bet...fold to aggression. play draws with odds in position...slam nuts.

and things were coming around.

i started off solid. built some winnings early. then, it all collapsed, and then some.

coolered twice. both times i made top two on river, and villain made gutshot.

lost races to maniacs. and lost one with a kicker AQ v AK where maniac woke up with a hand.

it must sound like i'm whining a lot, and taking a lot of beats...that seem rare. but, i'm playing a lot more hands right now, and the beats are pretty bad...there seem to be an abnormal number of them, too.

when i take one...it costs dearly. but, i cant seem to get mine paid.

i dont like sessions like these...the ones where i'm up $25, up $15, up $30...then, down $55. its like i'm treading water...going nowhere. sucks.

778 hands...down $55.

you'd think the luck would turn a bit. cant just be the luck anymore. but, i'm gonna keep telling myself it is...for sanity's sake.
