Day 88-22: -$41.50 (-21 BB at $1/2)

Level: +$75.25 in 55.24 table hours (+38 BB at $1/2)
Overall: +$347.90 in 194.20 table hours

I was kind of tired when I played today, which was probably a mistake. I quit pretty quickly, playing only about 40 minutes. I didn't really find myself in any difficult situations except once, and everything else seemed fairly standard. I don't know why $1/2 6-max is frustrating me, but 15/30 live is so easy... or maybe I do.

Hand 1: I think my mistake was either raising the flop or not folding the river. Or maybe I just call down all the time with TPTK against the LRR.

Preflop: Hero is BB with Qs, Ac
UTG calls, MP folds, CO folds, Button calls, SB calls, Hero raises, UTG 3-bets, Button calls, SB calls, Hero calls.

Flop: (12.00 SB) 7h, Qc, Tc (4 players)
SB bets, Hero raises, UTG 3-bets, Button folds, SB calls, Hero calls.

Turn: (10.50 BB) 5s (3 players)
SB checks, Hero checks, UTG bets, SB calls, Hero calls.

River: (13.50 BB) 4d (3 players)
SB checks, Hero checks, UTG bets, SB calls, Hero calls.

Final Pot: 16.50 BB

Results:
Hero mucks Qs, Ac.
UTG shows Ah, As (a pair of Aces).
SB mucks Qd, 8h.
Outcome: UTG wins 16.00 BB.
($1.00 Rake)

Hand 3: Unfortunate river card (again). This villain was a known over-stealer. The last time, I peeled the flop, he check-folded the turn.
