Ugh. This one had a most dis-heartening end. I think I need to take a break after I finish this. I've had mixed play but overall not too bad, in my opinion (well maybe not as I see what I wrote later :-) ). My chip count had gone down to under a 1000 and I'd come up a bit. Last hand 46 looked like maybe a chance to bring it up again or go bust. The latter happened but not the way I expected.
Hand 46. I'm BB w/1055 chips, blinds 50/100 and I have Jd Jh. Decent but not great cards. Seven of us on this table. Action folds to the CO w/990 chips who limps in for 100, BT folds and SB jumps in with a 400 raise. I think about it for a bit and decide to go for it. If he has AA, KK, or QQ so be it and I put in my last 955. BT calls. They show 10s 7c. I can't believe they raised 400 with those cards. Though, when I looked back now to see their VP(27), I see, I made an earlier note, that I forgotten about, where they called an all-in bet pre-flop w/K2s. If I'd remembered that, or checked my note, I'd have been even more likely to raise them all-in as I did, and seeing their cards, I'd not have been as surprised. All looked great until the flop.
Flop 9s 6s 8d. THEY HIT A STRAIGHT!!! :-/ :-/ I go from 85/15 to 5/95 on Poker Stove. Turn 5c. River 2c. I'm down and out!!!
Earlier in the session I took a hit on hand 15. I'm BB w/Qs 6h. MP1 limps in calling 40. Flop 3h 8s 7s. Nothing for me so I check, MP1 checks. Turn 6s. That pairs my 6 and I have a Q high flush draw. It shows a flush possibility, maybe a straight for my opponent. I bet 40 into the 100 pot to get an idea of what MP1 might have and they raise to 120. At this point I should probably fold, but decide to see if I might hit a flush. River 6c, giving me trip 6's, also pairing the board which I did not notice. I check and MP1 bets 300; another opportunity for me to fold, but I decide to go with my trip 6's and call. MP1 shows pocket 3's and have a FH. I'm down to 960 chips.
Hand 35 I'm back up to 1235 chips w/Js 10s as CO. Action folds to me and I limp for 60, CO folds, SB calls and BB checks. Flop 6d Jd 6s. I pair my J and the board pairs 6's. SB bets 120 into the 180 pot and I call hoping they don't have trip 6's. Turn Qs giving me a Q high flush draw. SB bets 120 again, this time into a 420 pot and I call. River 8h. No obvious damage. They check & I check. They win showing Jc 8d hitting 2nd pair on the River. My hand was actually in better shape than I expected. I'm back to 935 chips.
Nothing else much happened until the last hand I already described.
