More L

I hate writing about losing. I lost more.

Friday night I was working hard to just seal a victory and I guess I kind of created my own downfall.

At this point I had bought in for $400 (on the $200 table) and worked it up to $900.

I have As4s in the big blind, under the gun raises to $25. Everyone calls, I call. Flop comes 3-5-6 with two spades. I check, original raiser bets $75, everyone folds. I call. I definitely should have just put him all in right there. The turn is a blank, he goes all-in for $200 more and I call anyways. And obviously brick the river with 800 outs.

Two hands later I'm on the button and I get KK. I raise to $25. Guy who bluffed me earlier (and I caught him) re-raises to $75. I go all-in, he calls with aces, I lose $300 more. He actually tried to convince me the king would hit but I knew better.

About an hour later I have QdJd and I raise it to $25 in late position. Small blind who just sat down calls. Flop is QJ2 rainbow. I bet, he thinks for a while and calls. Turn is a blank. I bet small, he min-raises me and my dumbass goes all-in, he insta-calls with pocket deuces and I'm out.

I also lost most of my roll on Full Tilt, now I’m at $19 on there.

I just wanted to get that out of the way.

The rest of my weekend went pretty much the same way. Saturday I went to my boy's party and it was cool but not quite the drunken orgy that we expected. I went home somewhat early (midnight) to meet up with my friend but temporarily lost my phone and couldn't call her so that pissed her off (a lot). I ate chicken nuggets and went to sleep with Big Time telling me about the great tan he got in Mexico. I was so faded that I had no idea what he was saying but in retrospect it was very questionable.

Sunday I had a baseball game deep in the valley. I made it there only to find out that it was cancelled, great. There goes three hours of my life.

And to top it off I didn't even go see the Simpsons.

Weekend = Failure.

Tonight I'm going to start my goal of winning $200/day for the remainder of the challenge (which is like 20 days).

I'm not feeling too good about my game right now. A lot of the big hands that I've lost have been coolers but I feel like I should be able to avoid them. I'm not sure how but I need to. It's pretty damn disappointing to keep taking these losses.
