DAY 50

So I am really having some problems. I seem to be getting my money in, in really bad spots. I took a look at my last 6.5k hands and I donked off 7 buy-ins in hands I have no business being in! That's $350 just wasted. The good news is I took two horrid beats for $270 donked off $350 and am only down around $185 for this level. I need to tighten things up a little and I will be just fine. I plan on trying to get more hands in a day! Somewhere around when Neteller left my game started to go! This will help me get back on track and start playing good again!

Not sure if I can fold here when I thought he was on a flush draw.

I probably should fold this hand, but I have a hard time doing that against short stacks.

The first hand is a complete cooler, I honestly put him on a PP more often there though. I mean most people don't fold on a ace high + paired board on the flop I find. Either way, checking the turn probably makes you most profit in a long run. And getting all-in is the best play.

The second hand, I am always in those situations. I find that shortstacks have huge advantages sometimes. Because if they hit a set, if you got TPGK+, you can't get away from them. I guess you have to start classifying how good the shortstack is. Overall, I almost always pay off the shortstacks. But in a long run, I made a lot of money from playing the hand the same way though.

Jon looks like you have started playing more tables at once and not worrying SO much about table selection. I think that is a VERY good idea and will help speed up your bad run of cards much more. I don't know if you remember but you posted a response on my blog on the 13th kinda concerning the same thing. I doubt you ever read my response to what you posted on my site, but I was saying I think at these levels just getting more hands in is more important. Good Luck at the tables!
