I'm getting back into the swing of things. Played 4 tables for 6 hours today. I felt tired most of the session, but not sleepy. I broke even again, with slight gain. I'm damn near 0 win/loss over the past 2 days. I'm managed to limit my coolers to confrontations with shorter stacks, which means my BR is less swingy than expected.
I had a couple of laughable hands today... Snapped of an aggro's shove PRE w/ AK. He shows 65o and finds a runner-runner straight. Very next hand I have JJ, he min-raises, I 3-bet... he calls, flop comes 9-high. He checks, I bet, he shoves, I call and he shows Q9. Safe runout for me.
Next hand I fold A9s where I normally would have played it. It's a strange kind of tilt; folding a good but not great hand when I'm on a streak. I have done this before where if I'm involved in a couple of big pots, I am hesitant to get involved in the next hand with my usual range for that position on that table. I'm worried that people will start playing back at me and I will have to make tougher decisions about whether they're legit or bluffing my (apparent) aggro.
Perhaps there is some appropriate response to this, but folding my already tight range PRE is not it.
Limped pots confirmed a thing. I play so much trash OOP simply because of how often it's limped to me in the BB.
UTG limps and min-raises don't mean a strong range, most of the time.
My 3-bets from the blinds were getting too much respect, in general, so I included some weak AXs hands as 3-bet bluffs later in the day.
