Session one was a short-handed game of .25/.50 limit on PokerStars. And it went badly. I broke one of my rules, I was tired and not all there mentally. Sure I was watching the game, I picked a table that I thought would be alright, but after about 3 rounds my VP$IP was 10%, thats right in 18 hands I played 2 and both those were when I was in the small blind with no raise.

So when I got J10s on the button I thought that it was a sweet hand. So I called….then the BB raised and me, well I closed out the betting. Then the flop, J-10-x rainbow. Not bad, I figured I could play it cool and just called the BB. Then the card of death Q…..

BB checked-raised and I called and then on the river there was a blank, and he check raised again.. I called and he flipped AK….DAMN!

That simply put me on tilt, I was down to 25% of my buy-in and after 20odd hands called it quits.

I think that if I was sharper I probably would have folded on the turn, and saved myself 3BB.

Now I just hope that this is not me going on tilt full time, and the next time I sit down to play I will be sure to be relaxed
