Abso delighted this took off for you Suz.  Now pleeeeeeeeease just relax and play ABC poker.  You know how.  I've seen you do it.  Back to grass roots and you'll be grand.  And most important....just have fun!!!  Isn't that why we play this game?  The bad beats make us forget that now and then, but brush them off and get back to having fun.  Positive thoughts and your half way there already.

This is going to be harder than I first thought. I have now gone from one extreme to the other and im playing too tight. The fear of losing other peoples money is having a bigger toll on me than i expected.

First result 5/9

Didnt get any big hands and those I played totally missed the board. Ended up shoving 1300 (blinds 150/75) into a raised pot with AK which was no good v 99.

I will also post the results on the first post on page 1 to keep you all updated.


Deep breathes...relax.....and try another.

Good luck, i'd say you will need it

Thanks  I think you might be right.

Second result 8th of 9

Start off well, then it all went a bit Pete Tong. There is a raise and i reraise with QQ...matey goes allin..can I fold here? Yes I can...do I fold..NO...he has AA obv so im left with 300. Manage to get back up to 1k+ then go allin with 77 in an unraised pot with 800 chips (blinds 100/50), bb calls with QJ and Q hits.

Not going very well so far but going to try 1 more as i feel the poker fairy just might sprinkle some magic dust if i give her a bit of a tickle. I feel I am getting back into the swing of it so have faith x

Good luck with this Suz.

I've done the same recently and am having a break for a few months, and i'll be doing something similar when I get back round to it!

[Claw75]

Dunno about anyone else but I'm never folding QQ in a $10 sng to that action.  Gl with the rest!

What was I thinking...how bad did i play this!! I wanted him to think I had hit the flop so check called the flop with the intention of going allin on the turn but with another 6 and the possibility of him having a king or a 6 I couldnt do it :-( So why did I call the turn? I still thought I was ahead as this player was pretty active/aggresive and something told me he hadnt hit but I bottled it when he went allin.


He said in the chatbox he had nothing..of course he is going to say that anyway.

Feeling bad that i played that game like an amateur.

[suzanne]

Probably shouldnt but im going to do 1 more.

I feel I was unlucky in the first 2 and made a stupid mistake in the 3rd. Posting on here helps me clarify my mistakes and I wont do it again which is what this staking is all about.

PS I will buy you all a drink next time I see you x
