2 HU $5 + .50 End 2nd 48 hands

Not well played on my part. Still in my 1st stages of waking up; have 1st cup of coffee here. Opponent had a habit of often betting the full pot which I felt I had to fold on most times. I only raised him on it a couple of times. Hand 22 I had 10d 8h. Flop 5c 10c 10s. He bet the pot of 120 and I called. Turn Jh. He bet 120 again and I went all-in with my last 575 and he folded. He also, unfortunately folded when I had excellent starting cards so I didn't get to play them against him and/or I'd have something like AK and the flop would be all lower rags that he would bet into. Such is how poker goes sometimes.

Hand 9. My most poorly player hand. I had pocket 9's on the BT and raised 3 BB (60), BB called. Flop 10c 3d 5c, one overcard to my 9's. He bets the pot of 120 and I call. Turn 2h. He bets pot of 360 and I call again. At this point he might have an over pair, such as a 10 showing on the board, or even a straight, River Ac, another big overcard as well as the possibility of a flush being out there. He only bets 360 this time (approx 1/3 of pot) and I decide to call. He has 10h Jc. I'm now down to 600 chips which puts me at a disadvantage going forward. No logic or poker sense in my play there. Nothing much else happens for the next hands. I go up and down getting up over a 1000 chips some of the time and as low as 465.

Hand 48. Last hand. I'm BB w/Qc 7d. BT bets 2 BB and I decide to go all-in with my last 800. No good reason for this. Just decided to try an aggressive play and see what happens. He calls. He has Kh Qd, so I'm in big trouble. I need a 7 without his King pairing or 4 clubs to win. The board ends up 2h 5h 8s 8d Ah. Over and Out, I'm finished.

Mainly I would say my head was not quite in the right place for playing right now. Will likely try another game and see how that goes. If I find I'm playing better  I'll stick around and if not, find something else to do till later!
