Just came off a very frustrating 12/24 session at California Grand Casino.
We are 4-handed, the LAG is on my right, the LP is two to the right and the tight/solid player on my left.
Hand 1:
I have been playing solid TAG poker up until now and most of the table appears to respect my play.
I am in BB
Everyone folds to LAG in SB who limps. I make a comment about him always wanting to play with me (which I wish I'd never made) and he replies with a grunt. He is stuck at least 3 racks (of 3 dollar lime chips). I look down at QT of spades and raise. LAG calls.
Flop is Ks 3d 4d
LAG bets, I call
Turn: 10d
LAG bets, I raise, LAG reraises, me?
I ended up folding and LAG showed a bluff, so now the whole table was taking shots at me. A few rounds later, I open for a raise UTG with 66
Solid player cold calls on button
SB folds
LAG calls in BB
Flop is 10d 9 h 4d
LAG checks, I bet, button raises, I think for a while and call
Tur is Ah
I check, button bets, now I smell weakness and pop it.
Button calls
River is 5h
I bet, button raises, me??
I know I overplayed my hand early, but I couldn't help but suspect that button was on a steal after the last bluff working...or maybe I was just on tilt. Please, help. I thought my short game was great until last night when it seemed like everybody and their mom was beating up on me!
