$10 No-Limit Texas Hold'em
Played moderately okay; not my best effort.
The majority of my loss came from a hand where I called a $50 preflop raise from early position with [Kc 8c] on the button with 1 other caller.
Flop comes [Ks 6c 3c].
Preflop raiser bets out $140, which is a pot-size bet, meaning he is showing a lot of strength. Other player calls, and then the action is to me.
Here, I could've just called to see the turn, but I wanted to play it aggressively, so I re-raised to $500. The preflop raiser re-shoved all-in, and the other player also went all-in, so then I had odds to call, so I called.
Turn brick. River brick. Preflop raiser tabled [A A] for the win, and that's how I lost a buy-in. Made a little of it back later on, but that's where the majority of my loss came from.

Good.
This new place has a lot of fishes. The only bad part is I found out this new place structures the rake at $5 at $50, then capped at $7 at $100. I think that's too much. I hope they lower the rake or else I might just stick to Carom Cafe.

Bad.
After 42 hours of playing at Carom, I'm +$5. That's right. Check my stats. I dunno why people are calling me a demi-god and putting a bounty on whether they can stack me. Again... I'm up $5 after playing 42 hours at Carom.

I guess even demi-gods can lose.
Jokes aside, I played poorly tonight, I think, due to emotional stress. Shit has been on my mind (girl problems), and on top of that, some douche slowrolled me and kinda put me on tilt (villain had the ace of diamonds on an unpaired 4-diamond board, giving him the absolute nuts, and he then asked me to show first then revealed the ace of diamonds). What a dick.
Other than that, I made one really poor bluff that I'd like to jot down for future reading:
I raised preflop with [7d 2d] in middle position and got 5 callers. $60 going to the flop. Flop comes [Qd 2s 8c]. Check, check to UTG, who bets $40.
Now, these players at Carom are pretty straightforward players, so if I was thinking straight, I could've avoided this. If I was playing well, I would've deduced that $40 bet into me, the preflop raiser, is a very strong, confident bet. This really limits his range to [Q K] or [A Q]. I don't think this player would bet out $40 with [Q J] or any lesser queen. Any set, he would check to me, and two pair is really unlikely on this board.
My mistake was reraising all-in (about $100 over the $40) thinking I could get him to fold whatever he was betting with, but like I said, most of the Carom players are very straightforward, and they will not fold [K Q] or [A Q] when they hit their queen. Basically, I tried to bluff a calling station, because with the way he bet out so confidently, he was definitely calling a $100 reraise.
Now that I think about it, I made a lot more mistakes than I normally make. I just think my mind wasn't right tonight. I think I need to take a break and destress. I dunno if I'm going to play tomorrow. I'll see how I feel tomorrow.
