I had a -50BB downswing in Vegas. I feel I made a few minor mistakes when I might have been on tilt, but for the most part, my game was pretty solid. I will post a few hands in the small stakes. ...

Re: Monster or bluff?
In my home game, players taking a long time is always a sign of weakness. When I bet and someone takes a long time to call the turn, and a brick comes on the river, I know I have them.

Re: 76 sooooted flops flush
I think I would check the river. If BB has a bigger flush he will probably check-raise u all-in. The pot is pretty big and u are getting decent value for ur flush.

Re: I folded incorrectly....
that is a tight fold. I would probably call that down without any reads. Or I might even raise that and try and isolate MP2 and hope someone with diamonds will fold.
