Bad Night of Online Play
I had another bad night of playing online yesterday.  Did fine playing in Sit-N-Gos, had a small profit.  Short-handed Limit HE was not good for me at all.  I played bad and ran bad.  Kept bringing it in for a raise in way too many hands.  At the table I was at should have just played tight, could have won a lot of money.  Instead I decide to raise with hands like K-7 off and A-9 off.  Then miss the flop and bet all the way to the river.  Only to get called down by hands like 5-8 off who flopped a 5 and calls me down with bottom pair!  Than one hand I raised with A-K and flop comes K-Q-Q, we cap on the flop.  I bet to the river only to get raised when a Jack comes.  I make a crying call and am showed A-10 off?  So he withstands a cap on the flop with a gut shot with one over, which wasn’t good anyway.  Should have just sat back and waited, instead I played with donks like a donk.  The disease, of bad play, spread from the rest of the table to me.  This leak cost me 35BBs over the 2 hours I played.  Need to learn to have patience, when playing with a table of lagtards.  Back to a subject that makes me happy.  Just 8 more days until we go to Vegas, baby!  I am dying to play in my first event, next Friday, the $1500 RAZZ at the WSOP.  Wife and I both need this vacation big time.  Thanks for reading and good luck at the tables.  Tony
