Wow. Just Wow.

So I found a new game to play: $50 buyin blinds at $.50 $1.00 at Party Poker. Before tonight I played four sessions, profitting $160 from my playing.

So I start out tonight doing ok. I'm at $58 when I get 99 late position. Three callers before me, I raise to $4. Two callers. Pots at about $15 now. Flop is Kh9h2d. People in front of me check, I bet $10 into the $15 pot. One caller. I'm thinking, dumb ass calling on flush draw. Turn is a 5d, board reads Kh9h2d5d. He checks, I go all in for another $30 into the $35 pot. He calls with Kd8d (flush draw top pair with 8 kicker). Guess what? He hits his flush, I'm out $50.

I sit out a few hands and think what I did wrong. Couldn't see anything so I suck it up and buy back for $50. Several hands are played, I haven't played a hand except AQ of which I got no piece of so I'm down to about $40. I'm small blind and am dealt 10d8d. Under the Gun (UTG) calls, midposition raises to $4. I call anticipating UTG to call as well. Flop comes QcJc9d. Pots about $15 at this point. I bet the pot, at which UTG reraises me all my chips. Midposition folds. I think for a second if he has K10, decide he doesn't and I call. He turns over trip 9's. SWEET! Turn is a blank, River pairs the board and the chips go to him with his boat.

What a shitty night. Down $100 on two bad beats. Poker is poopy. Post your comments. Thanks for reading my rant.
