Re: Bad Downswing - multiple hand analysis - Hands 1-4
Hi LDN,
Hand 1: What else could you do?
Hand 2: I would get broke some portion of the time here, because why is he betting a grand into 500, and does he necessarily put us on more than a set? Folding is fine a lot of the time, of course.
Hand 3: Good. I assume you limped UTG with JJ for some specific reason (SB just lost a big pot, or someone was perpetually raising limpers), and that it's not your default line. Isolating the shortstacked SB seems good to me, as long as his range to make it 265 initially doesn't have you crushed. Given that, JJ does well against his re-raise calling range.
Hand 4: With 2500+ effective stacks, I'll call 80 there pf (or sometimes re-raise) if the raiser doesn't play well post-flop. With 1700 and change, I insta-muck. As played, I don't know how you don't raise the river, unless the bettor's amount (220 into 570) told you something very specific.
If you lost all these hands, they're just tough ones. I'm getting as many or more chips in than you did in every hand except #4.
