mmkay, I'm a fish.
I went down the play some 1/2NL at casino today and it went pretty badly. First I had to wait a good hour or so before a seat opened up despite 3 games of 1/2 going on.
When I sat, first hand I picked up UTG was AA (they just dealt me in, didnt require me to post while my chips was being brought to me)
I open for 10. Game was played with whites ($1) and reds ($5). 4 pla<x>yers call including one from SB. Flop comes K J rag all clubs and sure enough, I didnt have a club. Pot was $40 and sb donk lead for $10, I thought about it, and raised to $40. Other two cold callers fold and sb calls.
Turn comes Qc, and he quickly bets $20 into whatever many the pot was. I felt nothing helps and I cant possibly call a river bet so I mucked it.
A couple hands later, I was in the big blind with 66 and called a raise to $12 since there were hmm, 5 or 6 people in the pot. Flopped Ace with 2 rags with FD, so I check folded.
After this I rebought for $60 or so to put me back up to $198. I didnt have change so I didnt make it full $200.
After this, I was card dead for a long while. I should mention now that the guy two seats to my right, who was SB and made those donk bets on a monotone board earlier, seems to like raising to random shit like $7 or $12 and continues to cbet with like $10 or $20.
Fast track to me completing the blind with 77 on sb. There were 2 limpers so the pot was 8. Flop comes A 7 3 rainbow, so I check. Action checks around to last guy to act, some random old dude. He fucking fires $18 into $8 pot. So I just called. Turn brought a 6, completing some random gut shot. I announced check in the dark before turn was dealt, so old dude fires $20 this time.
-donk fish alert-
I went to raise and dropped $60 but since I didnt do it in one motion, the dealer claimed it was a call. FUCK.
River was a 4 or some random shit like that making it one to the straight, but I went ahead and chuck the last 40 that was already in my hand. My goal on turn was to splash the pot making it look like a bluff xD
old dude tanks, folds. stupid fuck.
After this, I ran drier than a Tibetan monk and just mucked a few hands. Then, 9cTs on sb, which I went ahead and completed. Flop comes 9 5 6 with flush draw. We check around to guy two to my right and he fires 10. I thought about it, called. Turn brought a small overcard like a Js (now 2c and 2s? on board) I check call 20 on turn not sure where I stand. River brings 7s completing runner runner flush. He bets $20 again and I call with nothing else to do (donkey fish station  Anyways, he shows 3 4 for OESD and river straight. Gay.
This puts me down to something like 160 or 170, not sure exactly how much. Very next hand, me on button. Limpers preflop, standard. Guy two to my right opens for 7, again, CO calls, I call, and a couple more calls. Flop comes Q 5 4 with FD. Action checks to pfr and he fires $20 into maybe 40 some pot. CO calls, I raise to $60 (donk, shoulda been more in retrospect since I didnt consider the pot size.) Action folds around to pfr and he quickly calls. Guy in CO looks at me annoyed/disgusted and tossed. I figure he had a FD. At this point, I can see the pf raiser a bit antsy. He didnt even look at the turn (7, FD whiffed) and shoved. Pot at this point is 120 some with me having about 10-20 smaller than that in front of me. (He had me covered, had quite a stack going in fact. He called some guys river shove early while saying "I dont think you have shit" on a river paired 3 with pock aces while other guy had top pair 8s or something) Anyways, he shoved all in, I quickly called. I felt he was drawing/bullshitting. He shows 5 7o for 2p. Bad beat. At this point, CO was pissed and says he had Q7.
After this, I went to take out $200 more from ATM. I came back, first hand, TT. Guy opened from UTG for $10, and guy to my right who hasnt raised a single hand all day, meticulously played with his chips and calculated out a raise to $30. Easy fold for me, might as well have deuces. Action fold around back to him and he mucks. A couple boring hands after that, I limped AKo UTG (donk, fish)
Rightfully so, I was punished. Like 456456456 people limped along. Action goes to SB and he makes it $7 to go. This is the same guy that I've been describing earlier. Perfecto, $7 is like the most retarded raise given that a.) hes way OOP and b.) hes not going to drive anyone out with that moron raise. I make it $30 to go after bb folds. Action quickly folds around back to him, and he very openly leans over the BB and looks at my stack, and said all in. At this point, I'm like... wtf? what are you making $7 in SB with a fucking assload of limpers and then shoving over a UTG limp-raise? I figured I had one ace and one king, so odds of him having AA/KK is lower. So went ahead and called. He shows KK, no help came, gg me.
So, down $460 this trip and played poorly. But yah, thats that.

Generally in live games opening up your game significantly in position does wonders for your win rate.
As you play more and more live you'll notice different tells too. It's amazing how much information you can obtain from just that. |

yah I would say thats definitely a weakness. I was able to pick out the loose weak fish vs the semi tight jerkoffs, but still  |
