DAY 22 - 12/26/06 - Bad Beat Switch On!

Today: -$42.00
To date: +$71.40
To go: $741.60
Bankroll: $1675.40

294 hands *** 0.97 hours *** -11.61 PTbb/100 *** 18.37/13.61 ***

I got stacked twice today with horrible beats. I got 1 out-erd today which was awesome. I flopped a boat and guy called with his trips and rivers his 1 outer. Glad he was short stacked. I about smashed my monitor: http://www.pokerhand.org/?696658

************************************************************************************
Same table a little later: I have 10-10. Flop is garbage, I c-bet and guy insta-reraises me 4x my c-bet. Now I know no one at these levels would play a set like this, so I push. He insta calls. He hits gut shot and I about lose it. I turned chat on and berate the table. I am so bad at controlling my emotions when these donks win these awful hands. I need to work on that aspect of my game: http://www.pokerhand.org/?696663

Donk says to me after hand: "I had top pair, and a gutshot, obviously you don't know anything about poker." So, with his insta call of my all-in 3 bet, his logic was that he had 9 outs to beat my hand. 30% to win with 2 to come? Is that a +EV play in the long run? Whatever. I shut that table down, since I was starting to be concerned with the chat box.

I am thinking that how can I play this GD game any better with these fish handing me their money. I should be up like $150 today. Unreal. Being down 42 after 2 stackings is something I guess. Maybe I'll win the Garmin today so I can't get lost anymore.
