Ok this is my first post, so Hi guys! Sorry if this sounds nooby or whatever!
So today I started on Micro-stakes 6-max cash games after doing pretty well with play chips over the past few months since I started. Im not gonna go into detail as im sure you get this a lot from new nooby players . Nearly always leave session with a healthy profit, made it to final tables and won tourneys etc. So today I dont know if ive just ran bad, been really unlucky, or if theres major flaws in my play??
So onto the three notable bad beats I suffered today.
1) Dealt QQ, I put in a decent sized raise pre-flop, I get 1 caller the rest fold, heads up.
Flop comes 6J5 rainbow. my stack is around $5, his is around $2
I bet big again, he calls again. Turn is another blank, so shove him in and of course, he calls with Jacks.
2) Similar to the first one, pocket Queens again. I raise im called by one guy. His stack is about 1/4 of mine this time, hes the short stack at the table.
Flop: 2,10,7 Rainbow. I shove him in. He shows AK. Im like, Ok I got him.
Turn: 4, River: K.
3) My stack is $12, opponents is $4.
I look down at Pocket 10s, 3x BB raise pre-flop, one caller, again.
Flop: 10,A,K Rainbow. I dont go crazy with the next bet even though I have a set as im aware of the over cards and draws, and he calls. At this stage im putting him on AQ-Ace rag.
Turn: 8. Another value bet by me and he calls.
River: K. A full house for me, I bet again, he re-raises all in and I snap call.
He show K8 suited for the better full-house.
Needless to say im pretty disappointed with today as poker has been hugely fun since I started playing and I seemed to have been doing well, today however hasnt.
Any advice or opinions are welcomed guys, I just want to improve.
Thanks
