taking back my blog

long time no post. mainly because poker hasn't been fun and i don't like thinking about it. i don't want to blame it all on running bad, because that's definitely not the case. i'm playing pretty bad as well. i think i get bored and bluff too much, and make a lot of dumb calls that, in retrospect, are very easy folds. i just need to start taking my time and give each move more time and thought. below is my graph for the month of feb.
not a lot of hands, but a lot of money lost.

and for shits and giggles, lets throw in a graph from 1/25/2007-mid feb!

my favorite hand from the downswing:
CO ($200)
Button ($403.85)
SB ($372.90)
BB ($310.45)
UTG ($228)
Hero ($371.65)

Preflop: Hero is MP with 5, 5.
UTG raises to $7, Hero calls $7, 1 fold, Button calls $7, 1 fold, BB raises to $18, UTG calls $11, Hero calls $11, Button calls $11.

Flop: ($73) 4, 5, 7 (4 players)
BB bets $292.45 (All-In), UTG calls $210 (All-In), Hero raises to $353.65, Button folds.

Turn: ($929.10) 3 (3 players, 2 all-in)

River: ($929.10) J (3 players, 2 all-in)

Final Pot: $929.10

Results:
BB has 6s Jh (straight, seven high).
UTG has Jc Kc (one pair, jacks).
Hero has 5d 5s (three of a kind, fives).
Outcome: BB wins $867.90. Hero wins $61.19.

BB in that hand was so fucking terrible, i went on crazy tilt after this hand. eventually shoving JQo into this monkey and losing to AKo. i was pretty upset w/ myself after that. i normally don't tilt, but the fact that a guy that played 84/56 and cleaned up the table really sent me over the edge. live and learn.

i started playing live for the last half of the month because online is obviously rigged. live poker was always pretty easy, but apparently it's now rigged, too. results for live play below:
i might as well get a job at mcdonalds. blah.

soo.. februrary sucked and was my first losing month ever. i wonder if there is some coincidence that feb was my worst month ever and feb being black history month... (just kidding, colbert) jokes like that are probably why i run bad, karma is a bitch.
