Playing a mixture of 20 and 50NL in $, £ and €, this was a pretty swingy and stressful session. There were many points where i nearly quit but overall im pretty glad i didnt. Will a low point of approximately -$205 i was ecstatic to finally get into profit after 4500 hands, however this was short-lived, all thanks to this hand;

Some people may think this is a poor reship on the flop, however LLLucky is a huge fish and when he ships the flop i put him on any draw or top pair so im obviously in good shape. The only thing im really worried about is the 3rd player whom has flatted my C-Bet. I came to the conclusion of (trying to) isolate the fish because i just dont think that he is flatting behind me on that flop with a set or 2 pair and an over pair is definitely out of the question with this guy. So my thoughts were that he can do something stupid and call me with some sort of draw which i will be ahead of, or he can call with a Q which im also ahead of. When the hands are flipped its one of the best situations possible. Having approximately 45% to scoop a 3 way all in and even if LLLucky hits his gutshot or top pair i still make money on the side pot. However 'luck' clearly wasn't on my side and the muppet with T8cc hits his off suit 9 to make him the 2nd nut straight...MBN.
So that hand demoralised me after finally getting even after hours and hours, to then be losing $150 again. I was pretty lucky that the games were so good really because i managed to play until 4am with good liquidity and a lot of fish still about. And after a lot of hands vs LLLucky i managed to win all my money back. Also a few hero calls helped i.e calling with 33 on AQ6J9 against some LAG.
Outdrawing people is normally something i dont like to do. Obviously winning the pot is what i want to happen, but getting it all in bad frustrates me a lot. However when i got it in bad vs the biggest fish on the night and out drew him i was pretty happy;

Tony5tark wins €107.74
Again some people may argue that when he check raises the turn, committing himself, he only ever has a fullhouse. However from what ive seen for the entire night, and a few hands before someone coolering him causing him to tilt massively, i figured he was doing this with 33, 88, 99, JJ, QQ, KK, AA and any 10 combo obviously putting me massively ahead against his range. So i shoved in all my money and was upset to see my pathetic 16% chance of winning, but after a bit of chanting for any 10, 8 or A, my prayers were answered and a lovely 8 came on the river, scooping me a nice €100+ pot.
Overall i think i played my session really well and even though i was losing for about 8 hours out of the 8.5 hour session, i was really happy with the poker i was playing and had a lot of positives to come away with. The final result was -$8.20 and after rakeback it was a winning session. I might try and have another session like this today, we will see if i have it in me.
