Not a great week

Well, this was not a great week for poker. I deposited 100$ on Pokerstars and played a couple big tournaments(22$+R and 55K 10$+R) I made it pretty deep in both tournys but ended up with no money. Played a couple more small tournaments and didn't cash in any of them. So yah, i'm pretty much giving up the online thing for a little while.

For the live games, it wasn't much better. My 3 sessions this week went like this, -800$, +860$, -900$. Thats my first losing week in a pretty long time. The first night i played pretty well the whole night but kept getting 6 outered. I must say that i sorta tilted away 200$ in the middle of the session when i raised to 30$ in position with A Q suited and got called by 3 players. Flop came out Q 10 3, with 2 spades, i had A of spades. Action was Bet 25, raise to 55 ... and then i went all in thinking the guy had me beat ... and he did ... he had 10 3 offsuit .... lol ... Everybody against me was hitting those 5 and 6 outters, i missed.

I also gave away my last 150. with this 7 5 of hearts i raised to 30$. flop came out Ah 6d 8h .. one person bet out 50 .. i went in for the rest ... she had J 9 of hearts .. heart came ...

My second session, I got pretty lucky. When i was just about to leave i flopped the nuts, and it was still the nuts on the river and i ended up getting a little more then a double up.

My third session wasn't very good, bought in for 400$ .. was down to about 310$. I picked up AK suited UTG, so i decided to play it big because a couple guys were making loose raises. I intended on re-raising. So its raised to 30$ in late position, and the SB calls. It gets to me and i make it 110$ to go. The initial raiser folds, but the other player decides to go all in. Making the pot around 260+the 200 i had left. making the pot about 460$. Costing me 200 to call. I was pretty sure he didn'T have Ace's, didn't think he would play Kings like that. But i was wrong, i called and lost.

Then i bought in again, i got 10's and was called by 9's. He flopped a set, but i saved money because of over. He bet out, i raised, he re-raised so i folded on the flop. On this hand, i was in for 900 total and i had 355 left.

UTG folds, next guy raises to 25$, and a couple callers, i'm in the SB with Jd 10d. There was a couple callers ahead of me, so i decided to call(fish). Flop came out perfect for me(so i thought), Kd, 3d, and Jh. there was 105$ in the pot. I checked, the preflop raiser bet out 50$(i thought it was a weak bet but i still gave him AK. There was 1 caller so that made the pot 200$. I then pushed all in, making it 280$ more to them. If i was up against AK, even if he had the Ad, i still had 13 outs and not in horrible shape. I was in coin flip situation and who knows, the guy might fold AK. He calls, the other players starts talking and says he has a flush draw. I was not happy, i thought he had a bigger flush draw, he calls, but he has smaller flush draw. So i thought i could sitll have 11outs. But no, the initial raiser had KK. The pot was right about 1000$. 2 blanks came out and that was the end to my night.

So that was my week, i'm probably not going to play much this week. I'm going to Fallsview on Friday to go try and play a session there. And thinking of Vegas in Jan.

I think i'm going to try to post after most of my sessions and talk abit more about my hands.
What do you think ?

Let me know, until next time ....
