So I got to the casino about 11pm and had to wait about an hour for cash games to begin. This time I sat with a full stack. A few familiar faces at the table, probably two solid players, rest is very mediocre or donkish. Only 2 other people buyin for full, rest is sitting with 25bb and 50bb stacks. Just to remind you, I was playing £2/£2 pot limit game and the ones that post the blind in every hand are button and person sitting next to his left. Yeah I know it's strange - haven't seen it before.

First hand I'm dealt 7s8s on the BB. Early position raises to £7. 5 callers so I call as well. Flop comes 9hTdJh and I bet pot which was £44. Middle position player think for a while and puts the rest of his stack in. It's about £30 more to me so I obviously call. On the river I proudly show my str8 when flush draw, str8 draw missed and the board didn't pair but he show KQ. Nice hand.

I continue playing a bit agressively in position in certain spots, taking down a few pots on the flop. I'm not getting any good cards, not hitting any flops but somehow my stack is growing a bit. After an hour or two I get AQ in early position and make a pot sized raise to £14 after button raised to £4 in blind before the hand. Cut off and button both call and we head to the flop which comes 7 9 Q rainbow. The pot is approximately £50 so I bet out £35. CO folds and button is thinking for a while. He pushes for additional £90 and now I'm facing a tough decision. The villain is a pretty tight but agressive player. What's your decision here?

A few hands later a very bad player joins the table. He's got loads of cash, he never folds, always tries to bluff etc. Perfect opponent but unfortunetaly he's sitting 3 seats to my left. He and the other guy limp in early position, 2 more limpers and I raise pot on the BB. Bad player reraises me by the size of the pot. Everyone folds (except for the guy to my left) and I'm facing another tough decision, this time with AK. I'm 99% sure that he's holding a small/medium pocket pair but I don't want to flip a coin with him for his stack as I know that I can put my money in a better spot. I fold and the guy to my left calls. Flop comes A36 with two hearts. Guy to my left bets pot, bad players pushes. Guy to my left calls and shows AQ. Turn is a heart, river is a heart and the bad player shows 7h7x. I didn't have a heart so I'd lose a huge pot if I reraise this guy again preflop. Later on he loses loads of cash in spots like this: 400bb pot. Board is 6 8 9 7 9. Showdown: solid player shows A7, the very bad guy shows A6. WTF?! And they were racing and reraising each other on the flop. Turn was a big bet called by the solid guy, river solid guy pushes for his last £50 and the bad guy calls. Now you know why this game is so juicy.

An hour later I get AQ again. Raise pot. Get one caller. Flop is 38Q with two spades. I bet, he raises leaving himself like £15 left so I put him allin. He shows QT and what comes on the turn? Yes a ten!

Then I get KK, AA and JJ in the span of 15 mins but get called only preflop and everyone folds on the flop. Then for the next 2 hours or so the best hand I got was 77 (and I had to fold preflop since there was a raise and a reraise before me). Overally I ended up losing about £140 but I felt I played pretty good, mixing my game a lot, c-betting in the right spots (in fact I think that every time I was c-betting with air my opponents folded so I was picking the spots very well). The only thing I'm very unhappy about is that I didn't stack this bad player but I hope that he'll be playing the next time I'll be there and I'll definitely take a seat next to his left.

So all together yesterday was a pretty fucked up day (not the worst in my "career" though). I lost about $460 online and £140 live so that makes a total of about $740. Let's hope the things will start getting better. Now it's 5pm and I woke up just about an hour ago so I pretty much wasted the big part of my day sleeping. But I was really tired after a 4hr session online and almost 6hrs in casino. Now it's time to take a shower, eat sth and either clean up my room a bit (but it's impossible with 4 large bags of my dirtly clothes lying on the floor - and once again I can't do the laundry today cause all the heaters are in use by my flatmates) or play some poker (which definitely sounds more fun). But I think I'll just take a one day brake today after a bad day to clear my mind a bit, etc. I'll watch the new episode of HSP and maybe 2 vids from CR. In the evening I'm going out with my friends to this new club in Manchester that's called Birdcage. There's a nice party over there every Wednesday, which is called "Rehab". Should be a good night out. Tommorow unfortunetaly I'm working

but the good part is that it's one of my last 4 shifts.
