Call it what you want

Call it variance. Or bad luck. Call it what you want, but I felt it the last two days.

People calling to the river with overcards and hitting their 3 outer. Flopping the nut straight just to have the board pair up on the river for a boat. Junk hands cracking my kings.

The last two days were brutal.

I reviewed how I played and found some bad moves on my part. Like trying to bet someone out of a pot when I should have known he wasn't going to fold. Chasing some draws. But overall I don't think my play was terrible. Just ran into some players who were luckier than I.

It sure takes the wind out of your sails to have back to back session take a bite out of your funds at a site. Guess I will take a day off and regroup and review again.

That sounds a lot like my night last night. Ugly. My holes were trying to push someone off when I knew he figured any ace would always win, so he probably paired his three kicker. And he did, repeatedly. No pokah for me tonight. Much.
