A Down Weekend

I didn't do very well this weekend. In total, I'd say it was a negative 175 weekend. Saturday wasn't bad. I ended Saturday with more than I started with. But Sunday morning and afternoon, I was card dead. The only hand of note that I will mention came in a 5-10 limit game. I picked up AA in late position. I limped and the guy on the button raises (he raised almost every pot) and got two callers. When it came around to me I reraised. And all four of us go to to the flop with a pretty nice pot already on the board. The flop came A-K-A. I slowplayed it as much as I could hoping somebody had a K, but I didn't get very much more out of it. That was the only had worth mentioning as I didn't play very well.

I did play three 50+4 SNG's and managed to finish second in the last one. The other two were bad beat city. In the first one. I've got about 2,500 in chips and a guy with slightly more chips than I have raises up big in early position. I reraise all in and he flips over 7-7. GG me cause he rivers a straight and out I go in fifth. In the second one, I pick up AA in late position. The pot was raised when it go to me so I reraised. The origional raiser goes all in so I call. He flips over A-Q of spades. GG me cause he flops a flush. Out in 10th. In the third one, I was never really in contention to win, but I didn't make any mistakes and didn't get sucked out on and managed to hang around catch just enough good hands to finish second.

Let's hope this week is better than yesterday was.
