Coolers And Bad Play Last Night

I lost 4 buy ins last night in under 300 hands. I played like a pay off wizard and had some coolers thrown in for good measure.


Does anyone fold this hand? Villain was pretty horrible but I felt even worse here.

This hand was right before I realized how much on tilt I was. I had notes on this guy that he only bets with strong hands. I called for time before finally saying 'screw it'and losing a bg stack. Funny thing is I was telling myself not to call because of stack sizes, so the "Spidey Sense" was right. I just chose to ignore it and it cost me a bunch. I hate myself for even posting this hand but I must be honest with myself here. My losses would've been manageable if I let this hand go...

Here is more of my stupidity. I'm beat when he raises this river but I barge right in with the worst hand. Not to mention it's an unraised pot and I forgot my own Golden Rule: Big river bets are big hands.

So I had a great night! Played, and lost like a total a donkey but I really didn't feel anger afterwards. It's noone else's fault that I chose not to read hands this session or try to put these guys on a range of hands and I got what I deserved.

Good luck on the felt and may the good cards hit your hand.
