Recent Live Play (and a short bad beat...)

Been playing a TON of live poker lately at the Argosy Casino in Indiana.  The 1-3 game there is SO week it's unreal.  Been crushing it for at least 300 a day, most days leaving up +500.  I'm gonna keep a running account of the days if anyone's interested... 

 

The one thing that I keep telling myself that has been the difference in my live game and poker game in general is this:  I have never lost a pot or a hand that wasn't my fault.  I can look at every hand that I lose and see exactly where I could have done something different and would have taken the hand down.  Just realizing that had I raised more, had I smooth called then checkraised the next street, had I done something different that would have been a better play I wouldn't have lost.  Not the cards fault, not the other players fault, but my own.  Keeps me from tilting and has me improving my game every hand. 

 

Short bad beat - I haven't taken one this bad in a long, long time...

 

Dealt 99.  I raise to 17 pre.  4 callers.  Flop 10 10 9.  I'm last to act and make it 75.  One caller.  Turn Q.  He checks I bet 140. He calls.  10.  He had AQ and totally fucked my flopped boat.  He had checked the river so I checked behind him realizing how shitty that was and knew I was beat. 

I'm doing the same thing here at the Venetian.   It must be a pretty good 1 2  if you're winning 500 a night.
