Tired and tilted

04 December 2009 | Category: by: Peter Murphy



Went to the Fitz last weekend and ended up running pretty bad in the two tourneys I played. In the EOM I was down to the last 25 or so, before running 88 into AA - and that was that.

I also played the €500 event and got off to a really good start. I felt I had control of my table, even four-betting Unkown suit A Unkown suit 8 and getting someone to fold Unkown suit K Unkown suit K face up to me; I was pretty shocked to see that hand. I then flopped top set on a Unkown suit J Unkown suit 7 Unkown suit 8 flop in a three-bet pot and got it in for three times the average stack v Unkown suit K Unkown suit K where my opponent binked the river - pretty fecking gross. Got a mini scoop in the PLO cash to pay for the weekend so it wasn't all bad.

Played some online in the room one of the nights and ended up doing $1k in the 1-2 games against some of my buddy listed players. I couldn't get a hand to hold at all, that was pretty disappointing as I didn't really need to be running bad at this stage. Anyway, ended up having a pretty rough night on Sunday and it took me a day or two to get back into sleeping properly.

I played some 1-2 cash again late on Tuesday night and found the fishiest player I have ever played against. He was playing exactly 100% of hands and was destroying everyone.

I lost a few pots to him early on and was in for a few buy-ins, then he dogs my Unkown suit A Unkown suit A with a turned two pair before I rivered a flush v his rivered house. Things weren't going well.

I reloaded again and managed to win a race v a reg, so now I want to stack this guy. I get Unkown suit A Unkown suit A again and three-bet, which he obviously calls, and calls a cbet on a Unkown suit J Unkown suit 9 Unkown suit 2 flop, Unkown suit 2 turn and I bet again before he shoved.

I pretty much snap and he has the old Unkown suit K Unkown suit 2, standard stuff. It ended up being pretty early in the morning and this guy couldn't miss so I left it alone, even though he has $2,500 at a 1-2 game. I was too tired and too tilted to continue and as a result lost another $1k on the night. Two bad sessions set me right back to $5k.

Decided to play a few MTTs again on Wednesday night and held off on the cash, as I can't seem to get a run at all. I played about six or seven MTTs and managed to win a small one for $1,080 top prize, which makes up for one of my bad sessions anyway. Back to about $6k now and a few more tourneys planned for the end of the week.
