Starting Fresh

The last few months havent been that good to me. Atleast at the tables. I feel im running bad but i KNOW im not playing as well as I used to.

I decided to make some changes. First I cashed out ALOT paid off my Credit Card (bought a computer on it last year after mine got stolen) and Set aside 5 months of money in my checking to pay bills. Gonna take a few days maybe a week of then come back focused. Playing .5/1 CAP NL

Thanks to Chad for the comment on my hands. I haven't even looked at this in weeks but I plan to update more.

My grad classes started this past week and its gonna be one hell of a summer. So my hrs might actually decrease a lot but after July 17th. Its going to be game on for a Month.

Anyway reading 300 pgs this weekend so I'll try and post some HH after that.

Needing some help

This month has looked like this so far. Down 300, to up 500, to even.
-down 10 caps after first 2 days
-up 16 caps after 4 days( 26 up swing in 2 days)
-back to even. (16 cap downswing in 2 days)

I'm only playing 4 tables and focusing as much as possible. Should I be having such high swings?

Hand Questions

ok this is just something small. this guy is pretty loose and aggressive. I'm not sure what line to take here. Maybe call. then fold to turn bet

I know he could have the flush or the straight. But ive seen this guy smash pot after people checked so many times. I'm assuming i should just fold though.

I never know what to do in these situations

So i went for a value bet on the river. Bad fold? I dont think someone c/rs without the straight or fullhouse here. maybe an 8?

5. http://www.pokerhand.org/?2572364
Fold to big river bet?

I played this horrible. I feel like if i raise the flop. I never get any action. unless they have an ace. which from a button raiser is very unlikely. I realize i should stop trying to get so tricky though.

How do u play this flop? Jimbo is agg. so if i check he is gonna fire the turn.

I thought i had more saved but i guess not

another hand went like this

UTG raised
cut off called
AQ on button for me. I call
BB calls

Flop comes A34
check, check, cut off bets half pot. I call, BB shoves, Cutoff folds.

Fold or call?

I also need help with pots where theres a limp/caller and a blind calls and i miss. I feel like everytime I cbet somone calls me. and if i dont cbet they bet the turn. I try and cbet on XXFacecard flops.

when u know somone is limp/calling with small pp and the board comes 946 or something and u have high cards they call ur cbet and X comes on the turn. if i check they call my river bet or lead out river. if i bet they still call me. these situations happen alot.

Gutshot and flushdraw. worth all in on flop right?

pretty much. i cant make the good folds. i can get paid off with hands. though they come few and far apart these days.
