Pretty break even the last 3 days, no headway made but no further losses. Was pretty card dead Friday and Saturday but saw more action yesterday. I played my longest ever session about 3 hours and I was getting pretty knackered by the end of it. I started about a BI down. I lost half a BI v a reg when I had AA and the flop came QQ6, I cbet and immediately got raised, I called and he bet the turn, I called again, maybe I should have folded turn but it feels a little to weak but he was only representing Q or 66, he shove river I fold, and another loss in co with KJs, got 3 bet v light 3 better on the button who doesn't fold to 4 bets either, so I called oop even though its not good to call 3 bets oop but I know how light he 3 bets from my notes, the flop came KT4, he bet I called, the turn a blank again I c/c, river a Ten but completed the flush, I check but fortunately for me he checks behind and he shows JTo. Forgetting the river what to do in these spots, where you know you are being light 3 bet a lot, I could tighten up my co range I guess, but against someone like him who I feel is just a gambler I think maybe I get some value calling in these spots and calling down with semi decent equity. I dont want to 4 bet as he will either call or 5 bet and I will get blown off my hand. I dont really want to be calling 3 bets oop but sometimes feel I have to.
Then I felt pretty unlucky as I hit two sets and flopped the nut flush but each time no one else had a second best hand to pay me off with, you do need that luck too where someone can have the second nut flush etc. Then I just won a few small pots and eventually finished the session 54c behind which was as good as I could hope for.
Lets see what this week or month brings. My goals are simply to keep going, keep trying to learn and understand more as I go along.
