Day 4

Restults - $16.5

Well the day I feared is here. Well I don't feel like I played well. Yet this is poker so maybe it is the cards. So to find out you take a step back and think. Analysis = bad play sort of. In the first sit and go(my sis has asked me to spell things out) I went out on a semi bluff. The other player was playing his hand weak. It didn't feel like he had more than two face cards but he actually had an over pair. (to cards of same rank higher than any card on the board). On the turn I pushed all in with an inside straight draw and second high flush draw. He made a good call and I missed. In this match the play wasn't that bad I was about 40% to win if he called and I was about 80% sure he would fold. My timing may have been off though. Players gamble early. This move proble would of worked if the table was down to about 4 or 5 players and the money was on the line.
The next sit n go I my apponent was again playing weak, but was again willing to call down for just about any price. I acutally believed I was good with second pair. This is very frustraiting because the players bet in a manner that says they arn't willing to put all there chips in the middle but then they are willing to call off all their chips(I hate this style of play) and its not like they are trapping (they arn't trying to get you to put more chips in the middle). Let me explain you win chips in this game buy betting when you think you are wining or can win by stealing the pot. These players believe they have the best hand but aren't willing to bet its not a winning mentality. Any way I wasn't crippled, but I couldn't rebuild my stack and when the blinds got high I lost when my A 10 lost to JJ.
In the third I misplayed my second hand any refused to believe I let a guy hit his inside straight and paid him off. I amost came back in this but when it looked like I might come back my straight was destroyed when the board paird and gave my apponent a full house. So it was a tough day and I really only have my play to blame.

The most frustraighting thing is that I knew the player in the third game had an inside draw and I let him draw to it. Well tommorro is a new day with new lessons learned. Hasta.

I Have : $66.5
I Need : $933.5
