Bah, having connection problems....here is what my last post was supposed to say:

Yeah, I was playing well, and ran very well with my hands, and I wasn't even getting out of line preflop or postflop like I had been. On that aces hand, my plan on the turn was a river check raise, but I froze, didn't think I would get paid off, and didn't really want to puke if you threebet, so I wussed out. Same result as if I bet/bet/bet, which is what I do against non thinking players.

I was definately on top of my game, and would have paid off a lot more when I shouldn't have. For example, I get QT in BB, the guy in seat 6 limps in EP, SB calls, I call. Flop comes AQT, check, check, and he checks. I instantly start to dislike my hand more then if he bet. Turn comes a 2, no flushes, not that he would raise on a flush draw. Check, I bet, he raises, SB folds, I fold face up, pot was way too small to call down and get shown down the KJ that he has waaay too often.

Another time our big complainer in the 1 seat had been complaining all day about how I couldn't miss. I wasn't needing to bluff at all because I was hitting hands when I had them, and getting paid off. But I picked up a flush draw on the turn, and there was also a flush draw on the flop, so I am like sweet, I have about half the deck to win. So my non flush flush comes in, and he checks, I bet, he started muttering about standard, and how I haven't missed a hand all day, and he calls. Boooooooo.

But I had a bit of a downturn and even in my mind mentally listed the amount in my bankroll that if I hit it, it was back down to 8/16, but now those thoughts are out of my mind for a bit!

P.S. How was Denny's?
