HU Nonsense

I won two buy-ins last night and I thought I could see the light at the end of this downswong. Then these happened:

http://www.pokerhand.org/?3205196 -- super standard here. I check the turn because I'm "giving up"

http://www.pokerhand.org/?3205201 -- this is bad and I should probably c/c the turn.

http://www.pokerhand.org/?3205205 -- mostly standard. I waited till the turn to let him bet again, unfortunately I get 5-outed yet again.

http://www.pokerhand.org/?3205210 -- disgusting 4-outer

http://www.pokerhand.org/?3205215 -- super standard again. Q3 is money I guess.

Overall I'm still playing with confidence which is worth mentioning considering I'm down 20 buy-ins on the month. This has to turn around soon.

Some good hands. Very rare these days:

http://www.pokerhand.org/?3205273 -- guy overbet shoves the river with air. pretty big call and i'm glad i can still make it despite my results lately.

http://www.pokerhand.org/?3205274 -- i valuebet ak on the river and call a raise. glad i can still make these bets despite my results lately :)

Life Tilt
