    2k hands today, -1.5k, as always just huge swings. Disappointing since I thought with my new approach I could enjoy some less stressful grinding.

    I definitely had to stop for fear of tilt/bad play, and it also didn't help being 1k under EV. I think I spewed 2 buyins towards the end of the session that were really bad. One was a 4-bet shove with A2s into an unknown (without a read it was bad...he turned out to be a nit) and the other was this. Gonna try to post these bad hands so I can stay accountable:

    Villain seems like a normal tag. I felt like if I c-bet I'm going to b/fold and this is a board that ppl will bluff raise/float a lot, c/calling seems awkward but they're going to be stabbing at this board 90% of the time when I check so c/folding seems weak (but probably 2nd best after b/folding). Instead I took probably the worst possible line. Not sure what I was even thinking so I stopped after this:

    No-Limit Hold'em, $2.00 BB (4 handed) - Hold'em Manager Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

    Hero (SB) ($209)
    BB ($310.85)
    UTG ($230.90)
    Button ($387.75)

    Preflop: Hero is SB with 7, 7
    UTG bets $5, 1 fold, Hero raises $16, 1 fold, UTG calls $12

    Flop: ($36) 6, 10, 9 (2 players)
    Hero checks, UTG bets $25, Hero raises $192 (All-In), UTG calls $167

    Turn: ($420) 2 (2 players, 1 all-in)

    River: ($420) J (2 players, 1 all-in)

    Total pot: $420

    Results:
    Hero had 7, 7 (one pair, sevens).
    UTG had 10, 9 (two pair, tens and nines).
    Outcome: UTG won $418
