of course i don't, but i'm still converting from nl to lhe. do you really want to cbet on a flop which hit such a huge junk of his range?
That didn't hit a huge CHunk of his range.It's a paired board, meaning it's far less likely that he hit it.We've also got an ace, a gutshot, and initiative.

Won a live MTT for $847 (not counting it in the Challenge)March 27th: -$602 (I was a moron today) Total - $4059I was a complete retard today. I started the day down in LHE so like an idiot started playing way out of my bankroll. I jumped into a 10/20 6 max table and played a couple hundred hands there. I didnt lose there, but from there I decided I missed what it feels like to experience implied odds, so I jumped onto a 2/4 NL table, and proceeded to remind everybody at that table how wonderful implied odds are for them. Twice in the span of 50 hands I had hit top pair with AK only to have somebody else hit a set. Its my fault for being there. I will be counting my NL losses here. I'd be cheating myself if I didn't.

I know I have a ton of leaks in my game, help me plug them.3/6 6 max table, you're in the SB with 99. UTG raises and the button 3bets. You dont have any prior info on either one. Whats your action? Fold, cap, or cold call?

This is typical of how I'm running the last few days. I'm not getting beat by good players, I'm getting raped by blind retarded monkeys that have been placed in front of a computer and are clicking at random. I cant win with AA, I cant win with KK, I cant win with QQ, I cant win with sets, I just cant win. I'm trying to not whine so much but I have to vent this frustration.

I just bought a Wii with FPPs to make myself feel better.I'm at a table full of drunks, who are actually talking about how much they're drinking, and are obviously not lying based on their play, and I am down like $250 on this table alone.

Wanna know something funny? At the moment I'm down $833 tonight in 1500 hands tonight. I don't feel like I've been tilting at all. I've been attempting to play the best that I can play. I can't explain what is going on. I've never experienced this before. I'm playing against horrible players, all types of horrible at the same time. Horrible passive and horrible aggressive, and I'm getting raped by both.Wanna know something funnier?I cashed out $2500 to pay some bills. I have $726 in my account right now.I'm just going to stop playing now and work out.1k to 5k by May 1st challenge:March 11th: +$226March 12th: +$54March 13th: +$481March 14th: +$113March 15th: +$188March 16th: +$193March 17th: +$53March 18th: +$392March 19th: +$83March 20th: +$585March 21st: +$581March 22nd: +$218March 23rd: +$53March 24th: +$558March 25th: -$117March 26th: DNPMarch 27th: -$602March 28th: -$833 (1500 hands) Profit during the challenge: $2226 - Total minus cashout: $726

These were actually some live hands I played tonight. It is a $2-$10 spread game. Mainly it is a VERY limp-happy table. Many regulars are at the table, and they ALL view me as a tight-aggressive player. The 1st hand in question... UTG, UTG+1 limps. I Raise Ad-Jd to $12, all fold to button (decent sub-21 yr old) who calls, SB folds, BB (loose-passive) calls, UTG (crazy and VERY tricky asian, he can read opponents hands very well) calls, UTG+1 (local on TOTAL tilt) calls too.pot ($61)Flop 6c-5d-2dBB, UTG, UTG+1 check. I bet $10. Button, BB folds. UTG (asian) raises to $20. UTG+1 (total tilter) raises to $30. Now I should?????Second hand, I am on button, the previous hand I had just showed down a check raise bluff versus the player on my direct left in a SB-BB battle.He is a somewhat loose player. He doesn't show much aggression, more often a call station....tries to be tricky.We are 6-handed, I have the button. Folds around to me, I have Ks-Kd I raise to $7, he calls from the SB, BB folds. Pot ($16)Flop 10c-10s-4c He checks, I bet $10, he raises to $20, I should ???????Turn is 8c based off what advice you all give me to do on flop, how should I react if I A. 3-bet him and he leads turn, B. 3-bet him and he checks turn, C. just call c/r on flop and he leads turn, D.just call c/r on flop and he checks turn?
