this is a pattern

16th of 61 at the Mookie this week. Again, can't really make a dent in things.

As I recall, had Smokee and later Waffles to my left, so I really had to tighten up, since they are smart enough/loose enough to float me a lot in position... Managed to make a lot of good folds early, (with Smokee laughing at me) then make a tough reraiase allin on the turn heads up, blind v. blind with Avoque. 

He open minraises in the SB, I defend with Q8o
Flop QJxr, I call 3/4th pot.
Turn blank, he bets 560 into an 800 pot, I shove for 300 more because I just don't buy he has a hand.
He calls with JTo, I hold up.

Moving onto the second hour I win a pot, lose a pot, open raise and shove to pick up the blinds a few times, when donk power strikes. Sorry Lightning.

Boy I suck. But at least I have chips.

Until I bluff the Hammer into trip 5s blind vs. blind, and fold
shove QQ into AK preflop, and lose
shove Kd6d on a Td8d6x flop and turn the flush
and AK into 99 preflop, and lose.

Arrgh. anyway, I steal/shove some more to stay afloat, finally shove A6o with 6BB and get called by butchhoward on the button with AA. somehow I manage not to suck out as a 6-1 dog.

GG me. Hey, I woke up at 545 this AM to go to NYC for business and got back to the house in Northern Virginia at 10pm on the dot. what do you want?
