Default I ran like ass tonight

I know i'm playing for peanuts but I just wish I could freakin win an all in. I played good poker tonight and if I would have won the last 3 hands I would have been up 430 Big blinds.

Those were the 3 all ins I had for the session which only lasted 50 minutes because I felt like [censored] after losing those 3.


Tell me how I played these hands as well, what I could have done differently.


I put him on an 8 and was happy to see that A turn because it erased my kicker. Thought I might be able to get him to fold on the turn, but his call concerned me so I checked the river.

This guy was such a freakin luck box as you will see in the future hands. He was being aggressive and his raises didn't mean much. I put him on 2 face cards and figured I would raise for value since he's only gonna hit a pair 1/3 of the time and I will likely take it with a c-bet. I normally play these types of PP's for set value but when it folded around to me I decided to make this play.

Same guy, again his preflop raise doesn't mean much, he's been laggy since the start. A call with A8o is a play I normally don't make but against this guy I'm just waiting to catch another flop.

I didn't want him to fold the flop so I checked. I overbet the turn to look like a bluff and figured he's gonna call with A high. Same with the river, but his raise left me a little confused. I figured it was push if I thought I had the best of it, or fold if I think he was slowplaying pocket J's this whole time or maybe pocket 10s that boated up.

"How Doyle won 50 some straight sessions I will never know. How could he never run bad? "

Because he doesn't play bad?
