Message: [QUOTE="TheNoob, post: 1054729, member: 39108"] I'm not too thrilled. Knocked out after only two hours (110 man tourny). Got very shortstacked (maybe 7 circuits remaining), raised a early limper with KQh, he raised back, I shoved, he had A's. Done. Biggest loss of chips was early on with QQ. I raise 4xbb from MP, BB snap calls. Flop is nothing. BB checks. I bet the pot (about) $1k, another snap call. Turn again is nothing, he checks, I bet $2k, he insta shoves. I folded the Q's. The guy told me later he had nothing. Maybe, maybe not. Frustrating. I wasn't going home again after a 1/2 hour to a 2pair, or a set, or AA or KK, so I laid them down. The overriding theme, for the second week in a row, is mostly CARD DEAD. And even when I folded something that turned into a nice hand, it probably would have lost to a nicer hand. ie folded QT in EP and the flop came xQT ...... I would have been smacked by a flush. But hand after hand I'm looking down at 72, 93, J2 blah blah blah. When a K does show up, it's in EP and accompanied by a pathetic 4. Getting short early and I look down at AJ, I raise, get called and hit a A on a rainbow flop. He bets pretty heavy, I shove. He has AJ too (better than AQ, I guess). Sit there getting nothing and the blinds are eating you away? Try to make a play with nothing and it's a good way to go home a little earlier. Have patience and wait? Sorry, not working either when every time you look down it's something in the range of 56o. If you can win getting these cards, I think you're pretty damn good. Frankly, at a live table, I don't care who you are (Gus Hansen notwithstanding) you're going nowhere when you see the kind of cards I have seen for two weeks. These cards combined with the weaknesses in my game are making my weekly trip to the casino start to look a little impractical. Oh well. [/QUOTE]
