Damn, when I run cold it's amazingly brutal. If I jam ahead, in a race or behind, I lose. Don't know what it is. Last night was one of those times. 5 or 6 major pots nailed me. One hand really bugs me. On the flop I knew I had nut low, w/great flush draw and a gutshot. Popped it up after he bet. Turn brings a 4. Now this counterfeits me, but still only one low beats me, I still have the flush and gutshot. The one combo of cards that can beat me is ofcourse in his hands after we get it all in and I lose. 1 card changed everything from flop to turn. From basically having him dominated, he caught his miracle.
Unfortunately, I misread the situation. Also what was unfortunate was that it was another situation where I kept running into the nuts all night. I'm sitting there clawing away, trying to get a little value out of at best, average winning hands of middle 2pr and 4th low, when my opponents are catching solid top 2 and nut or 2nd nut lows left and right. At one point showed down atleast 6 straight hands where I was 3 steps behind. Then I'd have a big hand that was miracle quartered on the river, then repeat some nasty showdowns.
Jammed a few killer flops,like A2310c on a board of 5610(2clubs). Villian had set of 6's. Turn 9c. River 9. Ugh. Another big hand I had AK10Jss. UTG pots it, I call in the BB. Flop 10J2. I chk/call the flop because we're fairly deep. Figure I'm likely ahead w/top 2 and a gutshot. Turn brings a rainbow 3. Now I like that card. It's a lot less likely that UTG has a good low now. At best maybe a crappy low and straight draw of some sort, or still bare aces. I figure it's time for a check raise all in. They have KQJ7ds. What! They stacked off w/top pair and an OESD. Of coarse a 9 fell. Ugh.
I know I played poorly in some spots, but combine that with running cold, it was awful. I need to learn to reaaallllyy nut peddle when I'm running like this. Sow down on flop jams even though my equity is slightly ahead and just try to milk made hands on later streets. My hope is that this will keep my play in check and not deviate from proper actions. No frusteration jams.
