More frustration

I finished second in a $5 SNG and pretty much tilted badly afterward. I was the chipleader and had the guy down for the count and he came all the way back. This I think has been the major flaw of my game these past few months. The wins just aren't coming. It's something in my HU game. The money difference between second and first is just as big as the money difference between finishing 4th or 3rd. Promptly lost a HU PLO game right after. I may have lost two I don't remember.

Anyway, last night was weird because we were awoken at 12:30 at night by someone buzzing up to our condo. It was a chinese food delivery guy. Must have been in the wrong building. While I was up, I decided to play another SNG. Bubbled. Things didn't go my way. Four handed, with about 3.5k chips, I raised to 1200 with AQ, and the BB called (he had 1900 after the call). Flop is 9-high rainbow. I thought it'd be a good spot for a c-bet.

I've got about 2.3 left, and he has about 1900. He checks, I go ahead and bet about half the pot, and he called, leaving himself with about 500. I thought this was strange. I might post the hand later. Anyway, we checked the turn, and checked the river and he won it with a wired 33 in his hand. I knew I didn't have the best hand after he called the flop, but at the same time, he was so pot committed, that he would have called any subsequent bet that I made. I was crippled on that hand, but felt like I saved $500, which was weird.

Didn't work out for me tho. Lost a big hand with Ax to Kx, and eventually lost with 66 to AT, when old Greenstein clipped me on the river. Won a HU PLO game after that to the same guy I lost to earlier in the day.
