Pretty much broke even today. No real shock there, just did not have the time to put the hands in, so I couldn't expect too much. No bad beats which was a plus.
Only 2 losses I had that stick out were plain mistakes so I don't count as bad beats. If I had played them right they would have paid off, but I played them wrong trying to be cute and got burned. I had pockets 9s on one hand, flopped my set and tried to slow play it to milk the villain knowing full well I should have bet into him hard, he made his straight on the river. In fact I just made a post today saying that trips off PP's should be bet hard to avoid suckouts. Once again I need to focus.
Second hand was an ATs that I was able to limp into with position. Board came out and made a striaght to the 7, villain had not been betting till the river. I figured he didn't have the 8 and my A kicker was good. Pure idiot play. I knew better and I paid for it.
Though it did serve to reinforce I must remain focused. Can't make shit for profit if I don't make +EV decisions.
