Stuck to the plan, but...

Still lost $167. I'm only posting now since I played for 3 hours on Thursday night, was too tired to post, then had to work late on Friday. The summary is: I tried too hard to beat tatta.

I think he's beatable, but I think I call too many re-raises loose in the hopes of trapping him with a big hand. It will work, but my range might be too wide, so I'm folding the flop too often cause I haven't hit. Tighten up that range a little, and I think I can get from -EV to +EV, or maybe I'm just deluding myself. Maybe he's that good of a player. We aren't too far off. I've played him HU 28 times and I think I'm 13/15 . I really need to focus on people I can beat consistently. The problem is, I haven't seen vendo in weeks, and talisain51 is there less often and got crazy lucky the last 2 times I played him (not that that should matter, but it makes me bitter). That leaves me to play random players by sitting at the HU table first. I'm 3/5 in the last 3 sessions with that approach. What I fear with doing that is if I find someone I can beat, they ain't going to sit at my table anymore.

Ok, here's the official summary of Thursday:

$33+1.5 HU: 0/1 ($34.50)
$55+2.5 HU: 3/4 ($72.50)
$55+5 FT: 0/0/0/1 ($60)
Total: ($167)

Tonight, things were less bad luck, but I couldn't string together any wins. L/W/L/W/L.

$33+1.5 HU: 1/0 $31.50
$55+2.5 HU: 3/4 ($62.50)
$35+3 FT: 0/0/0/1 ($38)
Total: ($69)

One thing I find weird about Saturday nights is that it seems like the tables are more dead. I'm always surprised how few tables are running.

Oh well... Time for bed. If I sleep well tonight, I'll play again tomorrow.
