Poker can make a man scream.

By lukaluka05 - Oct 22 2008, 11:31 PM

 It's so frustrating to play so well and just get sucked out of hundreds if not 1-2K dollars. Only solace I have is I played really well today, just killed at OHL and PLO and ok at Holdem. Where to start.....standard stuff first.

FTP 129KO - I raise A10o and get called to flop of 1098 rainbow, I check raise all in and guy calls with KJ. 50/50 hand I lose to river K.

FTP 75 6Max - I raise UTG with AK and BB calls to A,J,2 flop I bet he calls, 7 turn, check-check, river 2, he bets I raise, he calls with A7. Then I raise button QQ and BB reraises, I shove and he calls with AJo. I lose

FTP 75 - Sick so I'm on the money bubble UTG with KQhh and I have 10bbs. Fold to min cash? Nah, playing for 5k not 100$, and BB has 13bbs so he has to have monster to call. Well I shove and folds around to BB who thinks and calls with AKo of course. Flop is Q,J,2 one time for me? Turn J, River 10. I lose, I mean one suckout in one tournament today please. I know I get them other times but just one today.

I bubble TWO of TWO FTOPS OHL Satties just gross I had big stacks in both and was outdrawn numerous times no need to recount. I played great. There goes 450$ profit.

PS OHL 5 Rebuy - I'm killing and 9th in chips and face a LP raise and I have AAJ7 in BB and make PSB, he thinks and calls to see Q,7,5 flop and I make PSB. He calls somehow with K632 which is terrible, I mean even though his lo is good he has no way of knowing as I make PSB with AK23,AQ35 type hands anyway just fade a 4 is all I ask. As I think it the turn is 4. I lose

FTP OHL 5 Rebuy - Killing and lose a bad hand flopping nut lo and NFD to hi and getting scooped by a naked lo draw with a Q kicker to my J. Then I raise AA3xdd UTG and guy calls with QQ32 and flops Q and I flop nut lo draw and overpair and don't make it. I limp with A367cc and same guy makes PSB, I call to flop of A,8,8 and I check he shoves I call and he has KK44 and turns 4 to chop. Then BvsB SAME GUY I have KQ106cc and flop is K,J,8cc giving me toppair/updowndraw/2nd NFD, I make PSB turn 6 for two pair and shove the rest, he calls with 88 and fades my outs. It was 50% on flop. I money bubble and lose.

FTP 44 OHL - UTG raise and a caller and I call in SB with A27Jcc and BB shoves a small stack. Intial raiser calls and maniac shoves I know I'm way ahead of him and I call to see his 2468 river scoop me.

PS 109 OHL - I raise AA108cc and fish in BB calls flop is 6,2,Jccc giving me flush, he shoves and I call to see 8866 only a fish plays this OOP to a raise in OHL. So I have flush and lo draw, he has no lo and rivers quads to scoop.  Then, a minraise in LP (always A2xx) and I have A2J10 one suit and make PSB to iso, BB shoves and intial raiser calls and I'm committed. I see AK25 and BB AKK3. Flop Is J,4,5 - okay...turn is 10 giving me top two and sharing nut lo draw...am I to scoop? No river is 4 and KK scoops.

UB 11 PLO Rebuy - After break and I hold QQJ2 to flop of QJ8ss and I make half pot bet and get raised. Now I think....this guy has wrap st8/flush draw. I have one spade. But I like to ship in case he has smaller trips and flush/st8 card scares him. So I ship and he has AK10xsss and I'm 55% to win. I lose the race. Instead of 3rd in chips I'm gone.

FTP 11 PLO Rebuy - This was the sickest hand. OK, late in tourn UTG limps, and next guy makes PSB to 1k plus. I KNOW HE HAS AA. Knowing that I call with J1078cc and flop is 547 rainbow and he makes PSB. Now I KNOW I have 6,7,8,J,10 and backdoor st8/club draws. He is overplaying his AA and will pay off if I hit. Make PSB into that board is just terrible with others in. So I call PSB and turn is 10 giving me top two. Again he makes PSB and I shove the rest in. He calls with AA73, I have to fade 2 or A, 6 outs for 3rd place in tourn. I lose. This one kills me.

FTP 75 HA - I mean, if I wasn't ready to puke yet today this happens. During PL Holdem a limper and I limp button with 55. Flop is 5,J,6 I flop gin. BB min bets and I call as it's rainbow flop, turn is 8 and he checks I bet half pot he raises. I could shove here but we're both committed anway so I just call and there is 44k in the pot and river is J, he puts he last 1.5k in and I call to see J8. I'm ready to FUCKIN VOMIT. I mean just sick runner runner. I played it fine I got him to catch two pair on turn just sick unlucky. 94% or so on flop to win that. Anway I'm down to 10bbs and lose a race in PLO. I mean from a chance to be commanding chip leader in tourn to busting. Other sick part was that guy doubled through a guy right before that with 22 AIPF vs JJ and hit a 2. Now he is monster chip leader and he is just a donk.


So thats that. Some other standard outdraws but none worth mentioning. Maybe one.

PS 22 NL Rebuy - I raise JJ and BB calls flop 10,6,2 I c-bet 2/3 pot and he calls turns is 9, I bet and he raise, can you guess? No not 10,9 but 99. 2 outer on turn. So I say, I shall not rebuy and don't.


GL all at the tables...I'll be back tomorrow. Gotta stay positive, I'm pretty happy with my play I mean just races and outdraws not going my way. (BTW, Yeah I screamed at end of day after the KQhh hand and the A2J7 hand, hence the title. My dogs don't know what I'm doing so I have to calm down for them. Thank God they are here).
