But I admit I did take a couple swigs of tiltahol after a rough night of bubble-outs (2 ITM's in 16 games). Here are 4 plays I'd like some input on. My thinking on how I played them is in white below, any comments would be appreciated:
<font color="white">
In general, I thought the first hand was a pretty standard aggressive bubble play and the second hand I was short-stacked and had no choice. I think the third and fourth hands were definite signs of tiltage. </font>

/images/graemlins/confused.gif Ok..so the pot odds call on flush draw on the flop was probably alright but I don't think I should have called the big preflop raise to begin with. The pre-flop raise should've indicated to me a solid pocket pair, AQ/KQ or the like right?? Also, what was I doing just calling pre-flop, that should've been a 3BB raise.
