On Saturday night, I played like a donkey on the very first hand. I'd been dealt pocket sevens, and hit a set on the flop. I bet big on the flop, bigger on the turn, and biggest on the river. That strategy would have been fine, except for one glaring problem - the river gave the fourth card to a straight. I should just have checked the river, then folded to any big bet. Instead, I made a donkey shove, and was insta-called. I got what I deserved; the caller had the straight. I looked through the archives, and found that I've only ever lost my entire starting stack on the first hand twice. After my donkey shove, I reupped for the max, and settled in for a long night of grinding. I hit the felt for the second time on hand 56. I never made it back to the black, but at least recovered my second lost stack, plus change.
