The Beginning of the end.
Well I made the jump. Put down a deposit in PP and sat down at the 25$ NLH table. I was doing really well after about 75 hands I was up to 68$. Then My step son sat down to "watch" and with that distraction, I slipped back to 51$. Then I played this Hand...... Really badly.

DeadMoney had been bluffing at a lot of pots and I did not give his hand enough respect. Even when he didn't fold, I thought I had the outs... Looking back I don't think I did.
After that, I was not thinking as clear.... I should have just got up right there. 7 Hands Later, I play this hand.... Worst hand I played.

I was off my game at this point that not only did I not see the straight on the board, but I did not notice that the guy who was sitting in this chair had changed. The last guy was pushing a lot of money around with second pair or even a high card.
I think the lesson for the day is to walk away when I feel I am not thinking right or I am distracted. I lost 68$ by not doing this. I felt my focus go the moment my step son sat down, but kept playing anyways..... :x
