Lost today. Went to bed early last night, woke up early today, and went for day session. 2/5 I was card dead and just bled down, called a couple raises and missed, folded once in questionable spot with AK:
Hero raises UTG AKo, SB calls, BB calls. SB is tight player.
Flop: A-T-T. Hero bets $25 into $45, SB asks "how much?" and calls.
Turn: Q. SB donks $50. Hero folds. Is this too nitty or a call and evaluate spot?
1/3 went no better. No big hands except KK, but slowplayed it pre and faced a bet and an enrormous raise ott when the front door flush got there and had to muck. Limp/called a raise otb with A5cc and GII on A-3c-6c flop for $150 (pfr in BB/AT called me) and I didn't improve even though we were dead even otf. Jammed AA for $70 pre in a straddled pot with one caller and everyone mucked.
L/rr AKo AI for $95, only BTN called and mucked on Q-J-4-7-8 runout. Finally won one.
Then 3! AK over $12 MP open and two callers to $65, BB says "one time" and cold calls, everyone else folds, flop Q-T-4. He checks, I jam $125 into $160, he calls with AA and holds. Is this a good jam or spew? His BB cold calling range is probably 99-QQ, AK, AQ (maybe...). I guess I am getting 99, JJ, other AK to fold (that's a lot of hands) and getting called by everything that beats me (AQ, QQ, TT) (fewer hands), so not a terrible bluff. Of course I did not think he had AA or KK.... I decided to take a high-variance post-flop route and seems like I got punished for it just like the A5cc hand.
AK is such a mixed blessing. Have to raise it, normally 3! it, but at the end of the day I'm never super thrilled.
Down $600 in around 6 hours.
