Just Rambling

Today was horrible. I wasn't into playing since the second I got there. For some reason I feel like poker lately has a lot to do with how your feeling. Like today for example, I felt like shit and still insisted to play. I think I might go home to L.A. and fix my lifestyle/sleeping habits. I would like the 24/7 poker going on as well. Aside from personal things, poker went really shitty today. I ran into 2 cripple spots. I had someone have a higher boat than me. I flopped a set, he turned it. I know i'm due for a good sesh at Sycuan. I will play tomorrow and log. I want to start logging like how I was before.

Back2deepStack buy-ins

I felt very comfortable buying in for 100bbs. I can definitely handle it. I've learned that straddling on the button isn't necessary. I flipped with AK for $80 today, it wasn't necessary, I was out of position and up against a semi-tight reg. However I'm glad It happened since it's good learning pre-Vegas. I also decided not to post wins or losses that are under $10. Any way may the flop, turn, and river be with me, always

Just Rambling!

After taking a week off from poker (due to school), I've learned a lot. I've first off learned that I have to start taking poker more professionally, therefore I have to sacrifice something I love. I also have to start planning my days better, so that I go to casinos during their "peak hours". I have to read on my free time (card players) and be as productive as possible! I also learned a couple of things today:
1) when straddling on the button, use the weak checkers to your advantage (focus mostly at this time, since your guaranteed playing it).
 
2) if theres a huge pot and A LOT of FISH, don't bet it! (drawy board that is).
 
I also have to keep my poker mind fresh and not over do it with the hours played. I want to start blogging professionally here. Why not start? it's not too late. I also want to research my Vegas trip more, finding the hottest 100NL max buy in's (starting stacks).
 
Any way I'll post in here within a week or so!

Misplayed a hand

Today I misplayed a hand.
 
I had KQ offsuit in early position so i decided to limp/call a short raise, since i was out of posi. and at a very loose table. Fortunately the table limped behind and i got to see a free cheap flop.
 
FLOP: Q 2 5
 
I decided to lead out $8 into $10/fold if i got re raised
 
1 caller.
 
TURN: Q 2 5 K
 
This is where i went wrong, I checked (to induce a bluff since the K probably would more than likely scare him off) I was wrong in thinking that because he could easily have 22 or 55 (limped pot). The best thing that i could've done is bet out $20 since he ended up sucking out on me. by betting $20 i can fold to a raise because if a K improved his hand he has KQ minimum.
 
RIVER: Q 2 5 K 5
 
I carelessly bet a weird amount quickly ($20ish) and i got insta re-raised all in. He ended up telling me later on that night he had A 5.
