thursday thursday

Dumped $500 in my weekly thursday cash game. Overall, I played extremely poor poker and I deserved to lose. Here's one hand I butchered:

6 sissy limpers and I raise to $35 OTB w/ A9dd. Two callers and the flop comes down 8d 5c 3d so i flop a flush draw. Checked to me and I bet $65. One fold and crazy aggro maniac comes along for the ride. Turn brings the 4h. He checks and I bet $90 which he c/r to $210. At this point he could have a set, two pair, or total air. If I were to call I would only have $180 left. At this point it's either shovefold but i do the stupid thing and just call. The board bricks out and I fold to his river bet. He flips up QJ off for a total bluff. So nh sir and stupid me for misplaying my hand. Also pot odds says I should call there, but I guess I thought he would never be bluffing in that situation. Bad poker from me and that's that.

Another bad play:

I call a raise to $10 with 10c7c as do about 4 other people. Flop comes down 8c9c9s. Checked to me and I bet half pot and get c/r to $40 more. I look at his stack and put him in for what is $160 more. He snap calls with quad 9s. I don't hit my two outer and I ship him the $500 pot. Silly play by me because he has 9x almost everytime there. With the paired board I should just check call check call.

Till next time.
