    Tilt Call but also standard?

    I was tilting pretty hard when I made this river call. Pretty obvious I'm behind but I've committed a lot. What the hell am I beating to make this call? I left the chat in for your own amusement.

    You've got to fold the river on that one dude I doubt a 17/15 is really going to be bluff raising or have a worse hand that raises for value he doesn't have KQ does he?

    Take a note thats how he plays his sets and start liberally 3betting on the flop or even better call flop and c/r the turn liberally if you think he will fire more bluffs.

    I have no idea why I didn't take bet/fold line on the 2nd hand. Really must've had some tilt in me. What do you think about the first hand?

    Seemed likt high raises, usually multi pot size, it's usually in my tactics to never not just place 'feeler bets' vs. a single op. Cause, the turn raise was nice, the pf was sweet, I didn't understand why u couldn't set yourself up with info on the flop, at least could of assumed pair-set- of the likes if he raised- I'm sure he would of if he's donkman- cause a slowroll would of deemed u Playe by a player.. So it seemed too aggro? Dunno..

    I think the bigger issue is the fact you're tilting. It's a large mental leak that you should get handled.

    Hand #1: It depends on how aggressive he is. Majority of the time you're going to have to put your money in there as the pot odds you're being offered are very attractive.

    Hand #2: I see this happen to you a lot. You end up hitting the turn after your cbet and you go crazy and lose to a made hand. With a rag low board a lot of opponents are going to flat the flop with sets. It's hard to think of hands that are going to call all three streets flop, turn & river plus preflop that don't have you beat.

    At NL100 I barrel down purely because people pay off with all sorts of pairs. I've seen people call all 3 streets with horrific hands. Tbf, usually the K is a great card to get people to fold when I 2-barrel (which is usually why I check it if I hit it and bet it if I don't) so once he smooths my 2nd big bet I really should've clocked.

    I'm mainly interested in my first hand though.

    I'm afraid I have to agree with Bizkit here, it's not nessecarily your lines but the fact you abuse the guys. I've found that when I abuse the fish or even the regs after they've got lucky that I always seem to do bad, same goes for bragging aswell. It might be karma but is more likely the mental distraction of actually doing so. I think you should remember that your bet on the turn in hand 1 made it impossible for him to continue with QJ profitably. The guys an idiot but pay him his monies, smoke a reefer, play some battle of middle earth killing the humans and you will be happy and profitable again.
