Ok, tonight was simply disastrous to say the least. The event was a £10 PLH rebuy tournament with about 45 entrants. Before the break I rebought 8 TIMES!!! I wasn't catching anything and so decided to go all-in blind 4 consecutive times and lost all 4. After the break I was shortstacked at 3500 chips and was getting frustrated at not being able to shove due to it being Pot limit. Finally I got AQ and my all in got called by 2 ppl and I thought I was out when the board came 5 blanks but the other 2 had KQ and I won an 8k pot with Ace high. Soon after, I looked down at Kings and managed to get someone all in after a flop of 2 6 6 and my KK stood up against his 88. I was now up to about 15k with average being 8k. Then after it being moved to 2 tables, it got folded to the small blind who called and I checked my Q9. Flop came Jxx and he checked, I bet and he called. I fired 2 more bullets on the turn and river and wasted about 6k in chips while he had J8 (2 pair on the river). I CAN'T PLAY BEGINNERS!! Then a hand tat knocked me out and is still annoying. I raise from the cutoff with 22 to 3k (5k left in my stack), Wes in the BB, a very aggressive player moves all in like he often does and I obviously have to call with these significant pot odds. He turned over 9 10!!!!!! What was he doing pulling this bluff knowing that I was pot committed? He looked embarrassed and obviously the flop came 9 10 K and I was out. Annoyed at my play all night.
How aggressively I played: Before break: 10/10
After break: 6/10
How well I played: BB: 0/10
AB: 3/10
How lucky: BB: 2/10
AB: 5/10
Overall I am very annoyed at how I played tonight and probably won't be attending a Pot Limit event for a while.
For the Night: -£90 (-£30 Roulette)
Total: -£90 (-£30 Roulette)

Introduction
OK guys,
Just an introduction as to what this blog is going to be.
I am a university student who plays poker live and online for medium stakes. I am going to record my results for the next year and all interesting hands that come up with a view to qualifying for the WSOP main event next July. I will also be running a counter to track my profit and loss and will keep you up to date with all side bets such as roulette, sports betting etc.
