An Ape and a notebook, how long will it take?

[NEWY]

Had a rough session overall... Losing quite a bit.

Feel like I played pretty solid B+/A- game for most of it... Dipping up and down a little.
Changed gears a lot, slowed down and tightened when good players made good adjustments, etc...

But just lost a lot of pots that were £100 flips or 60/40's (vice versa) and a couple of big 20/80's.

Kept grinding back up to the 1k mark then setup with a big hand...


Final straw was just now, young Chinese kid comes to the table. I've played with him before and know he likes to move and or shake.  I open K4cc from SB into his bb, super passive straddle and button limp who I've got a good grasp on.
He peels, they fold.



I cbet 3/5pot, call

Turn


I cbet big, making it clear I can't fold to his stack size 65> 210 and he shoves A5dd anyways.
I snap..

River
Bricks out and he goes to fold his cards face down...

Then another player pipes up "you have to show first... Show your cards"

Then.... He turns them over.

The dealer is a good one and had his hand ready to muck them, little annoyed with 3rd party player but meh.
#theyjustknow

So now stood up with some crumbs left.... Going home.

To have a great weekend with my lady and forget poker temporarily.



Still love it, but now I've even stopped bluffig anywhere near as much and just have value hands, im still struggling.

Playing K and a 4 out of position against 3 players with no pair for stacks prob not considered playing just value hands

I can't remember for sure,

But I believe that it was something like..

Limp utg from a quiet older guy who hadn't played many hands but had check folded a lot > I think I iso'd with weak blinds coming along.
he check raised, and I piled it in for around £100 figuring im almost never dead, but probably against an overpair a lot.

Think about it a second.. Reread....

And.......

[mulhuzz]

river Q?

[Rexas]

I think you mean a Q on the river matey, else you've been badly done to in this one. If it's a 7, you're playing (7)8910JQ, whereas he is playing 78910J.

Reading problems everywhere

Sigh..

River obv.

was happy and patted myself on the back when I saw it peeled and actually smiled.

The guy was a nice Australian gent on my direct left who id been chatting to.  Was happy for him to win, just a shame as it would've been a nice pot to hold.

[jgcblack]

Wow, just wow...

Getting pretty crushed in the live pokers.

Don't think im doing anything wrong:
- find good hand, bet big
- find good draw, play aggressively
- lose


Going to plug away...

In other news..

But Dennis Phillips, Michael Piper and a couple of others are playing a few tables over.
Looks like Dennis has been enjoying the Vegas lifestyle a bit.
