Add another $4k I lost playing some pretty good high stakes stud games for a total daily loss of $28k. Weee. Kinda frustrating that my biggest losing day is more than twice as big as my biggest loser now. Oh well. My time will come.
Here’s the big drop at the end. Pretty gut wrenching turn and river IMO. I think I played it standard but not totally sure. I could have taken a couple of different lines including just calling the 3 bet preflop but I think the money was getting in anyways. As played I’m a slight dog with 43% equity on the flop in case you are wondering.
On the bright side of things:
-I’m only down about $16k for the month which I think I MAY be able to push through, but it’s going to be hard esp cause I’ll drop down in limits for a few days now. In all likelihood I’ll be happy with a $8k loss or less for the month.
-I had a great time in New Jersey/Atlantic City/Philadelphia visiting my friend and wrote up a rough draft of my trip report. I’ll try to finish editing it and post it sometime in the next couple of days so be looking for that.
-I made some more progress getting some ATM leads today. You really have to be persistent at this and just go to as many places as possible before you find someone genuinely interested.
Be good and happy holidays!
Sad graph, hilarious vid. Your play seems fine, that flop seems like he’s missed or drawing……his play suprises me though, seems like a lot to put in with the hand he has. Is that normal or is that guy a fish?
The 9cTc actually hits his range pretty well I think as I think he’s going to have a lot of QJxx or KJTx stuff alot of times with clubs which I’m pretty big dog too. I think it pushes it to a bet/call as opposed to CR or something because I think if I check he plays perfectly vs me later in the hand, but I am going make a lot of mistakes, where as shoveling the money in on the flop is never a huge mistake by me.
As for his play I think it’s pure gamble and a bit spewy with the initial 3 bet having only a Q and 9 high flushdraw that’s pretty gappy. Then again he does have position, we are sitting 200bb deep, and he was sitting on like $60k at another table so who am I to judge. After his initial 3 bet he’s forced to play the hand the way he does. His hand is 52% on the flop vs AA**.
PLO is just kind of dumb sometimes when you put so much $$ in preflop that we both get in $10k with one pair and virtually no draw.
