$33 Buy-In No-Limit Texas Hold'em Tournament (45th out of 56 Players)

Slowed played myself right out of this one.  Very bad play.  Blinds are at 50 & 100.  I have 4800 and KK.  One limper ahead of me and I raise to 400.  Big Blind calls and limper calls.  Flop is 2d 7h Kc.  Check around. Turn is Ad.  Check around.  River is Jh.  Limper bets 1000 and I think finally... I raise to 2500 and the big blind go all-in for 3800.  The limper calls for 3000 and I call the 3800.  They both have Q10.  I suck.

$2 No-Limit Texas Hold'em

Roller coaster Session.  Got up $180 right away thanks to AA, KK and KK again. Unfortunately I lost all of it in a big hand.
 
First hand I was dealt was AA in the cutoff.  Three people limp to me and I make it $12.  Two limpers call.  Flop is 8s 5s 4h.  First limper bets $30 into $37.  Other limper folds and I call.  Turn is the 3h.  Opponent bets $50 into $97.  I raise all-in for $90 more.  He folded and showed 1010.  Off to a good start.
 
Limp UTG with AK.  Folds to cutoff who moves all-in for $10.  Button calls and I call.  Flop is As Kc 10h.  Great flop.  I don't think the button is calling with any hand other than QJ that beats me.  I bet $15 into $29 and the button calls.  Turn is 3h.  I bet $20 into $59.  He raises to $70.  He has $100 left and I am debating whether it is QJ, K10, or A10.  He would have reraised with 1010, KK, or AA.  I have played with him before and I know he doesn't need the nuts to get it all-in.  I move him all-in for his last $100.  He instacalls and shows QJ.  Ugh.  $459 pot down the drain.

$11 Buy-In No-Limit Texas Hold'em Tournament (3rd out of 45 Players)

Played well made a big call with 88 against an all-in AJ.  Busted with A10 into A7 preflop.  Played patient and to survive.  Should finished worse, but lots of action at final table.

$10 Buy-In No-Limit Texas Hold'em Tournament (18th out of 18 Players)

Played very badly.  Tried to get a guy off his hand with a badly timed bluff and no outs.  Then lost 50 units with A9s into AK.  So bad.

$5 Buy-In No-Limit Texas Hold'em Tournament (20th out of 27 Players)

Did not win a pot.  Raised three hands and missed them all. Ended up re-raise shoving 15 blinds into a 5 blind pot with KQs.  Raiser had AA.  Ugly.

$2 No-Limit Texas Hold'em

Had a rough time for a winning session.  Was down the whole session really.  Every time I won one hand, it felt like I lost five others.  Had two big suck outs and two nicely played hands.  Had a misread that cost me a bit too.
 
Misread - I have Js8s in the big blind.  UTG+2 raised to $8.  He was raising to $12 every time he had a big hand.  The button, James, who is a very loose calling station, called and I did as well.  I played a lot of of 10-20 limit with him back in the day.  He is a competent player capable of bluffing.  The flop was Jd 6d 9s.  I checked and the continuation bet was set at $10 into $23.  The button and I called.  The turn was a 3h.  I bet $20 into $51 and the original raiser folded.  The button called.  The river was a 7h and I checked.  He fired out $45 into $91 quickly and I right away felt like it was a bluff on a missed flush draw.  The only hand I was worried about was 810 open-ender.  I called and he showed AJ.
 
Suck Out #1 - Bea is an older regular at Sandia that plays fairly loose and aggressive.  There were two limpers and she made it $7.  I had AsJd and I re-raised to $21.  She then raised it again to $42.  That sent the alarm bells off but it was $21 into $64. She was playing $100 behind and I decided to see the flop.  The flop was Qs 10h 9c.  She bet $25 into $85 and it just felt like a weak bet.  I pushed all-in with the semi-bluff for $75 more into $114 and she thought about it before making a good call with AA.  Luckily the turn was Ks.  No Jack on the river and I took down a nice pot. 
 
Suck Out #2 - Two limpers to the Hijack who opened for $10.  I have JJ on the button and raised to $25.  The original raiser then re-raised to $50.  He had $75 behind and again I was faced with neeeding to hit a had against a min-raiser.  He is not going to get away from AA or KK. with only $75 and the pot already $103.  I call.  The call is still borderline.  I am 4 to 1 with maximum implied odds of 6 to 1.  Fortunately the flop was J22.  I checked, he went all-in, and I called.  Avoided and ace and looked lucky again.
 
Nice Hand #1 - Played against James again I limped under the gun with QhQd.  This has been how I have been playing mid to large pairs lately.  Hoping to get a squeeze out of it.  It folded to James on the button who raised to $7.  The blinds folded and I re-raised to $22.  He called and the flop came 8c 3s 4h.  I bet $30 into $43 and he called.  The turn was a 3h.  I again bet $30 into $103 and he called.  The river was a 6c.  I bet $40 into $163 and I was having trouble placing him on a hand.  I didn't think he would continue the hand without a pair.  I was concerned he was playing KK or AA in an unorthodox way or that he had a set.  I almost expected him to shove on the river.  He called and did not show.  He said he had a mid pair. 
 
Caught a monster and got paid off.  Limped UTG with 55.  A very poor player raised to $10.  He rarely raised and I figured him for a big hand.  Cutoff called, Button called, and I did.  Flop was Qh 6c 5s.  I led out for $15 into $39.  He min-raised to $30 and I was feeling good.  Thinking he might have AA or KK.  Turn was a 5 and gave me quads.  I checked and he bet $50.  I called.  River was a 3c.  I checked again and he bet $80.  I put him all-in for $50 more and he called.  He said he had QJ which I am amazed he was okay with jamming it in with, but like I said he was a very poor player.

August 22, 2009, 3PM: Played 1 hour, 15 minutes, Lost $365.00 at Sandia
$2 No-Limit Texas Hold'em

Hijack position with two limpers.  Have QcQd and raise to $12. Cutoff, button, big blind, and both limpers call.  Flop is 8c 6c 6d.  Checked to me and I fire $40 into $69.  Big Blind calls and the last limper calls.  Turn is the 8h.  Checked to me.  At this point I know the small blind is a fairly conservative and decent player. Probably has a middle over pair.  I figure that the limper was last to act on the flop and did not raise the flop, so I am confident he has a flush draw with an over or two.  I go all-in for $145 into $189.  The big blind folds and the limper calls with Kd6d. River is the 3h.  Ouch. 
 
Hijack with AdJs. Raise to $10.  Both blinds call. Flop is 10c 2s 3h. Checked to me. I fire $20 into $26.  Big blind calls.  Turn is Qs.  Checked again.  I think he has pocket pair or a 10. I bet $20 into $66.  He calls. I now need to hit.  I don't think another bet drops him on the river.  The last card is 8c.  He again checks and I check behind. He shows Kd10d.
 
Cutoff with 7h8h.  One limper and Hijack raises to $12.  I call and the limper calls.  Flop is 10d 6d 4c.  Hijack bets $20 into $35.  I call and the limper calls.  At this point I think the raiser has a pair of eights or better and the limper has a ten or, worse for me, diamonds.  Turn is 2h.  Limper checks. Raiser bets $20 into $95.  This is a weak bet, but I think now he has an over pair.  We both call and the river is Ah.  Checked to me now and I think this is a great card to fire at.  I bet $60 into $155.  Limper thinks for a while and folds.  Must have had ten or middle pair. Raiser thinks and calls.  Shows 99.
