I'm just back from some cash games and I load €160. Obviously gutted, but am trying to figure out weither I played bad, and can only think of one mistake all night.
Ok, so I played for about 3 hours and was involved in around 4 memorable hands. I do play tight but I was also getting rubbish. There are two hands I want your opinion on.
In the SB, with €150 I pick up As 7h. 5 limpers to me, so I throw in the extra 50c and the BB checks.
Flop comes Ac 7d Kc.
I think my two pair is good here, and have no intention of slow playing due to the flush possibilities. So I bet €5 into a pot of €7. I get two callers and they both have position on me.
I know now that one of them has Ax, and the other is probably drawing, so his call was a mistake. (reads iv gotten).
Turn is Jc.
I bet €15, next player folds (ace x) and after some thought the other raises to €30, and has €7 left. This screamed 'I don't have a flush' to me, especially with his body language, so I push him all in. This is where I think I made a mistake, as there was flush and straight possibilites, but it was just matimatically difficult to put him on either.
Turns out he had a straight.
The next hand I think I played perfectly, just one of those hands.
I pick up kh 10h on the button. 5 limpers again, so I raise it to €6.
Everyone calls and pot stands around €35 and I'm playing around €60.
Flop comes kc 2c 3d.
checked to me and I bet €15 and get one caller.
Turn is 8d and it gets checked to me again, where I push my €45 into the pot.
Opp is thinking long and hard, running through pot (Around €65) and doing the math. Obv he's on the flush draw.
Eventually calls and turns over Qc 9c, leaving him with only a club to hit.
Which he does, busting me in the process.
Now, I thought I played well tonight, but perhaps there are flaws that I'm not seeing. The call with two pair was obv a mistake, with flush and straights out there, but should i be happy I forced an error from him first ? And surely I out played my opponents in the last hand ?
Any thoughts and critisims welcome.
