I have no problem folding C**P hands. I am suprised at how many players have no conception of the number of hands I have folded. You would think that when I finally play a hand that they would automatically fold but many of them follow me to the river. $$$
Last night I had been sitting at the table for about 20 minutes when I picked up AA. I was in middle position and it was folde to me by two playes so I only bet out 15.00. I got 3 callers. The flop was rainbow no flush or straight draw. I bet out 25.00 and got two callers. The turn was nil so I bet 35.00 and got one caller. The river was nothing and I bet 50.00. He folded and quipped, "Thought you might have been bluffing but decided not to take the chance." I usually never show my cards but decided to only turn over one A. He was gunning for me the rest of the night.
I have a new theory. After I go through a about 45.00 in blinds (11 times around) and I dont win a pot or get any cards to play, I leave. If thge cards are running I will stay until I get back on the cycle of 11 rounds with out a winning or playable hand. Since the new casino is 13 minutes from my driveway to sitting at a table this has worked for me.
I do not rebuy---I do not stay in a game with less than 50.00.
I had been running bad the month of July and was down 650.00 playing 1/2 NL and was ready to quit poker. I laid off for two weeks and Saturday I cashed out 742.00 and last night 365.00 so its like every one says "Its just one long session"
Every time I play I seem to learn something so I guess I am on the right track.
I had an interesting hand saturday night. I was BB with K-J spades. Buy the time it was my turn to bet there were five players and the pot was 75.00. I figured that it would cost me 12.00 to win 75.00 so I called. Ther were two spades and a K on the flop. The betting was heavy and even though I didnt make my flush I called an all in bet from a manic figuring I had top pair and a good kicker. I won.
I am working on getting mor aggressive at the right time and so far this has paid off for me
