I haven't had to vent in a while...so here goes.

Fuck...
Thats better.

A pretty bad stretch going on for the last while. I haven't been able to play a lot of poker for the last while so last night I fired it up and was all gun-ho to get crushing...instead I got bulldozed.

I couldn't connect worth a damn and my good PP never held up.
In one hand (I need to post it for critique) I had QQ, raised and had one caller, flop came KXX and I cbet and was insta raised (just over min raise) and I insta folded. There were no SD or FD's possible so I dont know what else he would have raised with other than a K...

I had QQ 5 times and I lost 3 out of 5 with one "win" being the blinds only.

I lost my stack when I had the 2nd nut FD and on the flop I felt the implied odds made it good for me to call (there were 3 players in the pot), and on the turn I called the rest of my stack with proper pot odds and didnt hit....that was one buyin gone.

On another table I made up a little bit with one good pot but then on that same table I got in all in w/ KK...
It took him a while to call my all in so I knew he didnt have AA, I figured JJ, QQ or maybe AK (some will call). The flop came XQJ and I knew I lost....sure enough, he had QQ....there was another stack gone.
Had my KK held I would have been up for the session and would be happy about how things went.

As is, I still think I am playng fairly well. Not scared, not spewing, still playng tight and aggro....its just not going my way.

I hope to get back on and fight again...It would be nice to get ahead on the BR, I've dropped a bit over the last week.

I'm not too tilted, just frustrated how I'm hitting my flops and how my good PP don't seem to hold up.
