I played over 200 hands before I got myself ahead. most pots were pretty small and I was trading small change for about 45 minutes, but was draining chips and was down to about $3.50.
A couple of decent hands later and I had got myself up to just under $6.00, when this happened.
Hand 282:
Pocket Kings from mid-position I raise 3xBB and get 2 callers. It's an innocuous looking flop, but I lead out and get one caller. The Jack on the turn opens up straight possibilities, so I bet 3/4 pot, hoping to drive him off any draws - no such luck, he calls.
The Queen on the river is another scare card, so I lead out again, and get insta-raised - an overbet. I hesitate for a second and call. Q-T. My God, how do these idiots get so lucky. All he had was overcards on the flop, and drew and up/down on the turn. I'd lost to runner-runner.
Hand 283:Yes, the very next hand I pick up QQ. There's a series of limpers, so I raise it up, and get called in one spot. The flop is low, 3d-6d-2c so I lead out again -my opponent puts me all-in and I call. He flips up Aces.
That's it - done $6.00 in two hands - one to an idiotic runner-runner straight, when holding KK and the other to a cold-deck holding QQ against AA.
I need to break this bad run as soon as possible.
