First losing day!

Obviously, 100% of the blame lies with Into Infinity for his comments in yesterday's blog! I've used extensive research over the past 5 seconds to prove this fact. A paper will be published in Scientific American February 2009 issue.

Ok kidding aside though it was just standard cooler / bad beat city during the first session of the day (-4.5bis), coupled with life tilt from my involvement in the PT3 scamming debacle here. It's never easy when someone you decided to trust turns out to have been unworthy of any good will. =( I suppose he will take please in reading my confession of him getting to my head perhaps, but I do think letting it spill out is better for my mental wellbeing

. It truly shook my conscience(not sure if that's the right word) that I decided to dismiss all the negative impressions of him from being on TL and give him the benefit of the doubt, and in the end I was in a sense betrayed (esp since he immediately tried to scam me as well via msn).

Thanks again to the scam victims for providing me with their correspondence with said lowlife.

Poker wise, proper table selection and being aggressive preflop, total nit postflop is the goal, which I did pretty well in session 2 imo. Well, time to get a good night's rest and hit the ground running tomorrow. Bottom line is, if I play well I'm a winner, if I play poorly I'm a losing station + donk. Discipline imo.

Nearly 2bis -EV? Standard~

A lol hand

edit: just went over my marked hands from today (which were prolly all the biggest losing hands anyways) and it definitely looks like I fire too many bullets and station it up with marginal holdings.

Preflop, I'm not sure how to deal with villains who 3bet around 9-12% (esp against my CO/BU steals), or alternatively steal from CO/BU/SB at like 40-50% frequency. =/
Advice welcome (read: plz halppp)
