Rough Session Last Night

Couldn't sleep last night, so I fired it up for some 0.50/1 at Stars. Started off well, then sank fast. Ended up down about 12BB, and it was made worse by the way I lost some of that. I dropped 6 BB on one hand, raising with A4s on the button (table was WAY passive), getting 4 callers, and flopping trips with a backdoor flush draw. Turn card brings another spade, followed by the 5 of spades giving me the nut flush. Pot gets capped, and an EP nimrod flips over 54o, making his full house.

Breathe.

Even though I had him the whole way, he hits his dominated 3-outer on the river, even though I had capped him on the turn with my trips and 4-flush. He still called $4. Grrrr.

It's behind me though, and I played ok, winning a pot here or there, but nothing special. Just a bad session.

Also played a little Stud last night. My baby Jebus. People will call to the river with ANYTHING. I'm showing a pair of Aces and 3 spades (yes, I had the flush), and a guy called me to the river with a pair of 5's. That was it. This also means suckouts galore. Calling bets heads-up with flush draws, inside straight draws, and of course, the way I ran last night, they all hit. Oh well.

My main focus is the tournament, and I won't play a single damn hand until then. My head will be clear, my mind will be sharp, and hopefully, money will find its way into my pocket.

Ciao.
