Day 85-19: -$87.75 (-44 BB at $1/2)

Level: -$12.75 in 48.19 table hours (-6 BB at $1/2)
Overall: +$259.90 in 187.15 table hours

Ugh. Downswings like this suck. I was actually up somewhere in the neighborhood of $40 early, but then I got really unlucky. Most of the money that I lost feels like it was on preflop raises that missed flops (~1-3 BB losses). I don't mind that.

In other news, I like the new DeucesCracked converter, and I'll be using that one from now on. It doesn't have HTML code to make some things bold or colored, but I don't mind. I prefer not having to change my position to "Hero" everywhere.

Hand 1: The turn 3-bet was perhaps a little too much since I didn't have the flush redraw.

Preflop: Hero is UTG with Ad, Qh
Hero raises, CO folds, Button calls, SB folds, BB calls.

Flop: (6.50 SB) Jc, Qc, 5c (3 players)

River: (12.25 BB) 4c (2 players)

Hand 3: Flush over flush... it has been a while since I've run into this, so perhaps I was due.

Hero mucks Qd, Kd.
Button shows 7d, Ad (a flush, Ace high).
Outcome: Button wins 19.50 BB.

Hand 4: I can perhaps not raise the flop as my pair isn't too vulnerable and the pot is small. I was surprised that he showed down the deuce since lots of players slowplay flopped trips.
