Running bad (and tilting)

Ouch. Suffered a nasty downswing last night.

Started off with the following hand.

I raised after one limper with JheartsTclubs to (1.75) in position and got a caller from the blinds.

Flop J clubs 9 diamonds 4 diamonds
(pot 3.75)
Turn 6 clubs
He bets $3 and I reraise for 8.50 and he calls.
River 2 diamonds
(Pot $20.75)
He bets pot.
There was a lot of bluffing going on and people showing down some very weak hands.
I called and he showed J8s for the flush.

Instead of just shrugging it off I almost immediately found myself with AQs at the other table on the button. I raised and saw a reraise from the big blind. Without thinking I hit the bet pot button to reraise. Doh! This left me with about $10 behind and I thought quite a pickle I had got myself in. With odds of almost 6-1 I couldn't fold. I hit the Q on the turn and thought I may steal it from AK but he had pocket rockets and I'd lost $95.

After that hand I closed it down and begin the long slow process of winning it all being playing solid poker another day.

So I try and start that process over lunch playing $5+0.25 HU SNG on Stars.

First one I get reraised on a flop 964 with a diamond draw and I have 94. We get it allin on the flop and he shows 64. 6 on the river. Kerpow!

I'm happy when I get reraised Aces called on the flop. Flop comes very dry, 10 high and no flush or draws on. He raises big betting 300 leaving only 400 left behind. Instead of pushing I just call. He gets it allin on the turn an 8. Whack!

He show T8o. I should have just folded him off.

Next game the guy raises me big on a KK7 flop. I have a seven and don't believe he would play a K like that. I push allin and he shows 67 but overcards mean we split the pot. Next hand my 77 loses to his JJ. Kaboosh!

$16 down on Stars to add to my woes.

After telling Deadly of my tilting episode he labelled it HSP syndrome. Very true. You just don't believe people have it! On 50NL they mostly do! Even Sammy Farha didn't call with AQ after such obvious 'big hand' action.

Oh well 4% of my bankroll gone. Some solid poker until I get my $200 bonus required methinks.
