jesus... playing limit really screwed up my NL game... .50/1 pstars
I'm in the middle of getting back into the swing of NL poker, and my game has been garbage so far. i'm making limit plays (which is obviously costing me) and being weak-tight. i used to win at this game, and i've been breaking even for a week (about 15 hours played- before anybody mentions sample size, i'll say that i should have been winning, as the cards have been pretty good). help.
Hand #1, or "if you're gonna play a big pair, PLAY it already!" Pstars 6max .50/1 NL I am in MP with Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] UTG and UTG+1 limp for $1 I make it 6 to go FOUR people call me (jesus). Flop is A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] checks to me, i check (mistake #1- i should've bet the pot), player behind me checks. turn is A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] checks to me again, and i bet 1/2 pot: this was an incredibly ugly play on my part, i think. all fold but UTG, who calls. river is 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] he checks, I, weak-tight limit chump that i've become, check behind. ************ Hand #2, or "damn those clubs (it's not their fault, though)" I am in MP somewhere and get dealt 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] i limp, four people to the flop, which is T [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 8 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] EP player bets like $2 (i have seen him underbet the pot with the nuts), i call, one more player calls Turn is 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] Checks to me, i bet the pot, EP calls River is a brick EP checks to me, I? okay... let me have it. |
