Carnage

What a disaster. An abomination.

Played last night, started off with $110. Now have $65. Wounder. It could have been much worse, I was at $40 at one point. I don't know what went wrong, in fact I really didn't play that badly, and that is the truth. I suffered some horrendous bad beats, e.g. losing on the river to a straight when holding top trips and losing with a straight on a river to a full house. These two incidents both consisted of massive pots.

OK, I did struggle after these issues, but I was by no means on tilt or anything. I kept getting shit hands, not hitting flops and only winning tiny pots with huge pre-flop hands. Perhaps I was on the wrong tables. Whenever I had pocket kings or aces and raised pre-flop everyone folded, even if the raise was one big blind. Seriously though, this was a bad bad night. I am at work at the moment so cannot access my hand history, but will do so when I next log on at home (will be Sunday as am away for the weekend).

Maybe this is variance, for all, the damage was done by a series of narrow losses in big pot situations. Either way, I am extremely pissed off and am even considering only playing in freeroll tourneys for a while. My aim is to get to $155 and then but poker tracker, if I have another evening like that, I will have no bankroll at all.

Stupid game.
