Too frisky

Last night, I played too friskily, and paid the price. I hit the rail with 17 minutes left in the late registration period. A poor performance, to say the least. I can't remember winning a single hand. Tonight, I promise to tighten up my play.

Too frisky

I hit the felt twice last night; I was too frisky. It's actually important to be too frisky every so often; getting spanked when you are is what keeps you grounded in poker reality. Here were my three big reality checks:

- on hand 13, my two pair of kings and fours lost a pot worth $33,100 to an ace high flush; I lost $15,600 on the hand

- on hand 22, my two pair of tens and fours lost a pot worth $39,698 to a full house, fours full of aces; I lost $11,854 on the hand

- on hand 53, my two pair of aces and fives lost a pot worth $22,008 to a full house, threes full of fives; I lost $10,254 on the hand

Tonight I'll definitely play tighter.

During current Hold'em session you were dealt 53 hands and saw flop:
