Post Halloween Pain

Ugh. What an awesome weekend.

The poker lately, though, has been up & down.

NL50: 180 Hands / $58.85 / 32.69
NL25: 996 Hands / ($19.94) / (4.00)
NL10: 1688 Hands / ($64.86) / (19.21)

What seems to be the problem here?!! Besides the fact that I logged my first hands at NL50, chasing a tilting fish, who paid me off, and loosened the rest of the table up, also paying me off. Nice. But I am still a losing player. AT 10NL!!!!

Going back over my hands, it looks like I'm either A) stupid (i.e. not paying enough attention because I'm 2- or 3-tabling) or B) falling prey to 'fancy play syndrome'

Even at NL50, the money come when you let people overplay their hands. Stop overplaying yours, Colin!

standard raise PF. Kant Bluff is a thinking TAG, Jordan60 is a donk with a WtSD of +75 and W$%DC of -20%. Regularly comes to fight with 2nd/3rd pair.
Flopped top two. Cbet (parrottlover) > 75% right now. I check to induce a move at the pot. Doesn't happen, but the turn card is a brick and the action starts. Kant_Bluff has routinely protected his two pairs and sets on drawy boards in the past. He also would have RRd anything JJ+ PF. I put him on AQ/AJ/QJ after his 3bet, and elect to get it all in on the turn. Ship it.

Looking back, I'm not sure what I think of this place. TAG-statted villain raises in the small blind. Standard play for AA in BB is to raise OOP in an attempt to isolate. I fall prey to Fancy Play Syndrome, and call to conceal the strength of my hand. He looks like he has AQ+, TT+. Unfortunately, a donk calls as well. I'm now in mid position for the flop....
...and it is wet as hell!! Villain cbets, I put him on a high pocket pair and push. Looks like a draw. Luckily villain2 folds, I hold up. I love my line heads=up. In the position I was, I'm not so sure

They had just called my group to board. Last hand syndrome time
! I hate my PF call, horrible. I see a suited board! I have the A! YES!! Money goes in!! Drawing dead. There is no thinking to correct here.
There is no thinking here. As played, I like a reraise on the turn, but not AI. Fold to a push, as I'm not getting odds to draw.
This is not ABC poker. ABC says after the first barrell, 'there are better places to get the money in against one of the top 5 players at UB for this level'.
Fucking stupid.

I finally remembered not to slowplay. Bet out at the flop, hoping to represent a PP. I get raised, which is what I want. Hate my push right there. Should have called and led on the flop. Still think I'm getting stacked here if he calls a turn bet...I might be able to lay down to a turn push.
