Right, before poker tonight a full and reasoned explanation of my post from last thursday!
As said, played at the local the other night, 9 person £10 sng.
I feel like i played the best i have played for months as it happened. Was very aggressive, raising alot and attacking weak play as i wanted to. Not felt in control of a table like that for AGES.
1st hand i got screwed over in...
i have 88, raise it up pre about 4.5 times the bb due to a couple of limpers.
Hit my 8 on the flop. Cant remember the details but i bet out, get a call off one of the more... interesting... players in the pub, who ends up hitting the straight he called down with (he called the raise pre flop with J9 off!!), costing me half my stack when i folded to his shove on the river. NH Sir...
THEN, i build my stack back up to about 6k from 2k in the period following the break, again am playing well.
Am oin SB, it is folded round to our friend from previous hand, who raises to 1200 with blinds 200/400.
I look down and see AQ off, and re pop him to 4,2k, He loks at me and shove, so i obv call. He shows K2 clubs.
I even manage to hit my A on the flop. Which is nice until he hits a club on the turn and river to get a runner runner flush.
Wonderful.
I have since calmed down a bit and realised that i played bloody well which is nice, just need for the varience to sort its life out and i will be laughing.
In the mean time i will be back on it again tonight and will let you all know what happens.
