Taking a more aggressive line than usual
1 limper
MAWG completes SB
Hero checks BB with Q8ss
Flop ($9, 3ways) is 8h 7d 5h
MAWG bets $10
Hero raises to $35
1 fold
MAWG calls $35
Turn ($72, HU) is 8h 7d 5h 2c
MAWG checks
Hero bets $60
MAWG tanks, buys time for $3, then eventually announces all-in for $270
Hero folds
Maybe he was making a move with a pair+draw, he did seem like a decent reg, but I think that the vast majority of players simply have me crushed when they take this line.
How do they have it everytime?
Decent young reg opens $12 HJ
Bad reg flats $12 CO
MAWG flats $12 BTN
Hero squeezes $65 SB with KQo
Decent young reg folds
Bad reg backjams $213
MAWG folds
Hero calls $213
Bad reg shows AA and holds. I don't even know anymore. I expected him to have far more 77-JJ in his range than {QQ+, AK}, and with all the dead money in the pot, I thought it was a fairly trivial call.
Well that's yet another bad start for today... hopefully I can spend the next 6hrs grinding my way back to even, like usual. Sigh.
I even thought I was playing disciplined. Like I folded KQo UTG. I folded KJo on BTN to a UTG raise. I thought I was playing a tight and low variance style, yet these spots just keep coming up.
It was also annoying because I had to type this entire post twice after I clicked "post quick reply" and my internet disconnected and I lost what I typed. And it's so hot in the casino for some reason and the heat makes me tilt more. And the guy to my direct right does this stupid angle shooting thing where he pretends to throws his cards in the muck preflop but then pulls them back, so I end up folding out of turn and getting yelled at by the dealer, even though it was all this other guy's fault.
I'm probably going to take a break now. Go for a walk. I can't afford to let these little things get to me like this. I'm better than that.
Wtf you have to "buy time"? Wtf? Aussie casinos sound like they suck.
Getting it all-in preflop with KQos for ~60bb is not standard, it's spew. Folding KQos utg and KJos to utg raise is good. You could limp fold KQos from utg but folding is fine.
Don't post quick reply. Post reply like a pro. Don't post ITT or read your phone while you play. Focus on the game. Just some suggestions.
