100nl Swings are Definitely Challenging Me

Posted by icemonkey9 on Nov 21, 2008 in General | 0 comments

100nl has proved to be a much more action oriented game. Tonight I got my ass 3bet more times than I could possibly remember, and like DOUBLE any other time I can ever remember in a session. I was also getting outflopped, and outsmarted on two hands, one of which I sucked out a 2-outer for a stack. All in all somehow I ended up +29 today but it was -200 at one pot, +110 at another ... so the swings definitely have me going crazy so I'm going to call it a night and maybe take a few days off. No need to sustain that "one more hand" that actually gets me UBER-tilting. Tilt is the enemy ... and during this last session I made some moves (specifically with QQ) that were tilt-induced, so I recognize it's time to stop.

Anyways , I guess it's "been a positive day" which is good news, however small it might be. Here's some of the hands I had today, and comments are appreciated ...

This time some good...

KK Wins Big

Pretty standard and straightforward I think.

Not Sure if this Turn Call is Smart?

I know how it ended up ... but?

Okay now for the bad...

I Remember When Flopped Sets Were Good

Silly me, sets are for losers.

Is this a bad play with QQ, or did I just get incredibly unlucky at the turn?

The title says it all. I just pick a horrible time to stack as he spiked it on the turn. I really had put him on AK the whole way.

Now for the QQ Suckout

I am surprised OOP he would just flat with AA there. Real surprised, which is why I stacked off. I guess his super secret plan worked, but fate foiled him. I can say this was near the end of the last session, and I was feeling upset in retrospect.
