check flop to let him cbet nice.
"Tried representing a big Ace on turn"
so you were turning your hand into a bluff?
Why not 4bet pre? His 3bet size just says he sucks.

played just over 700 hands last night and finished down 13$ with BR now at $407.08 and 1095 fpps. didnt really get into any big hands just lost or folded lots of smaller ones. Had my obligatory losing AA against QQ all in preflop just cant wait till they start winning 80% . Wonderland watched for a short time , and my resuslts could have been a lot worse , folded some 'stealing' hands just on a feel without even trying to steal and villain showed AA each time. |

Just finished a swingy session .....was up 15 $ on one table early on and Monsieur chat came and sat on my left , had to steal some of his blinds naturally and then managed to spew all that 15 off bluffing AK against TT ick ...should have known better. Had been reading Jason's blog earlier as well where he said to beat 10 NL you don't have to bluff . |

some of the action from last night.....this was me being a complete spewy spewtard and is memorable for reminding me of the BC post about not being able to make them fold at the micros.Also interesting is that he went all in with a medium over pair against a SB 3bettor. Whats my likely range got to be JJ+ AK bearing in mind he's either seen me raising as a steal or folding.Semibluff from me in a way as there was still a card to come. |

It can be tough. How many tables do you play? Getting good reads is important to determine which players will play based on your raise and then help figure out when you're ahead and should be extracting value or when you may be behind and should try to get to a cheap showdown or simply fold. | |

AA : preflop was kinda what threw me. went for the 1.90 to try and price out smaller pocket pairs by destroying their set odds. |

posted my june 10K stats in begfinners circle and have had a bitof an AHA moment . found a/the problem but digfficulty is now interpreting how to solve it . This has resulted from trying to fix an earlier problem of losing a lot of value to check raises on the river. The solution I was using has caused me to lose value so I'm going to have to try and find a happy balance. |

well after the elation of last night and hitting pot after pot tonight was an absolute fucking nightmare . I was rivered left right and centre. 1287 hands played for a loss of $51.65 and the bankroll back down at 437.38 and 463 fpps. So 37 more to cash another 8$ bonus out. |

Can you elaborte on that ....at the moment with the way the last two nights have gone I'm just not sure whats what anymore. Was I getting lucky with my hands before or have I just been unlucky to miss all my big draws now. |

Take a break dude. It looks to me like you're tilting understandably and trying to push margins that aren't there to be pushed. When you don't make money off of your big hands it can be tempting to try to push to make that money elsewhere. |

went into IRC and was talking to Oskar , illfavor , seteccba and stacks about my hands with some useful feedback and would like to thank them for taking the time . Was playing 2 tabes at the same time . story of the night ........44 was dealt it 7 times in 343 hands .......finished down 10 cents which was a relief after the last two nights. Cleared 500 fpps so took the $8 silverstar bonus whilst its available whihch conveniently gets the bankroll back up over 400$ ( just ) at $401.73. |

start off with a couple of the losing hands. Pleased in a way with not stacking off on this but can't help wondering whether a smaller river bet or checking behind would have been a better line to take. |

the heater continues : finished the night up $26.40 with the bank roll on $502.38 which is one hell of a comeback considering that on saturday or was it sunday the roll dipped to about $386 briefly . It could have been soo much better if it wasn't for this cooler towards the end of the night. |

well .....jeepers .........a very rough session with bad beats left right and centre . Started right fom the beginning and was doing well to hold my head above water but in the end I just shut the tables down and admitted it wasn't my night tonight with a net loss of $43.09. |

OK , so my best session ever playing nearly 1800 hands and I'm left felling disappointed with the $64 profit I ended up with. This could easily have been my first 100$ session except for some suckouts and getting owned by a 90/0 fish. I had 60$ on one table at one stage and she and the suckouts ended me on about 30$ on that table. |

oh what a week its been.This time last week I was down 10 BI's and wondering what I'd done wrong. Played a shortish session last night for a $47 profit. This means that I've made about 184$ in the last week since the bottom of the trough ( includes a 8$ fpp bonus though) . It also includes the -$43 session as well when I insisted on donating on made flushs. Heres the last weeks graph. |

couple of shitty days play..... Sunday I was up $25 before sprewing off 20$ to end up $5 at $575. SImilar story last night , shortish session but QQ<AA and AK <TT all in pre accounted for 2 stacks, and card deadness meant break even over the rest for a net loss of $19 to leave the roll on . |

booked a 4$ profit after aboiut 1200 hands last night. Was down about 15$ at one stage then one table went apeshit . Was sat to the immediate left of a 98/69/7 over about 90 hands . He was betting and raising every street. JUst called him down several times with flush draws which hit on the river and stacked him twice but it was bloody expensive to get to show down with him and several times TPTK was no good against some random trash that two paired on the river. |

I thought I was up against a worse kicker or flush I think and throw in being on a heater and it turned into some lousy river play. followed this up later in the op weith spewing plenty on 'flush' boards . |

woooo hooo , finished up $40 to finish with the bank roll over $600 for the first time.Also had the biggest pot of my career so far heads up 300bb deep for a 58$ pot. I'm going to post it in BC as I don't know whether it was sensible or stupid play. |

ok so its been a weird week. Was drifting downwards on he bankroll . Night before last started at $553 was hitting hands left right and center and was sitting at $615 at one stage before finishing at 595$. |

WTF .....seems like I've gone into meltdown mode. No matter what I seem to do I just keep running intoi total fish with better hands.yesterday was up 30$ at one stage before finishing down 5$ . Last night was just a disaster zone , Finished down $64 .Heres the graph for the month so far and the effect the last couple of sessions have had. Bankroll is now down to about 480$. |

Sweat session last night with Rob (Kolonel) and Gobbatino went well.Alltogether during the actual session I probably finished up about 6$ . Carried on playing afterwards and got rivered set over set on one hand but ran well the rest, finally hit some other sets and finished up . |

Hand 1 - 3-bet flop. As played check-shove turn. Out of position you're shoving any river - and maniacs are more likely to fold to aggression on the river than any other street. Get it in on the turn and he's calling middle pair. |

I think a big factor in my swinginess is that i have been hitting that damm call button when I get raised on the turn or river. Its great when they are bluffing and the graph shoots up when they have a hand though I'm usually calling because i have a hand , just not so good a hand. then the graph plummets. |
