Okay. Let's try that again. I want to chip up early so I'm going to play loose aggressive for a few hands only. But I'm not going to keep pots small until I have something. Basically I'm going to play smallball.

Qd5 with a million limpers. Flop comes 2d 3s 4d. Frankie bets 180, Gretchen calls. I call...

And then.. Of course. Charlie makes a huge raise. Frankie and Gretchen go all in. Someone's going to have a huge stack after this hand, and at least two people will be out.

That isn't what I signed up for. On the other hand, a 6 gives me the nut straight, and if I win, I'll almost certainly win the tournament. So I call. But Charlie had A5 and Gretchen had 56.

I'm frustrated. After the past couple games I'm feeling like I can't win anything and I'm just throwing my money away. I need to either relax and play a tight solid game, or just stop playing completely for today.
