running back and playing worse

Brutal few days for KULP.  Can't seem to catch a break in anything and it's causing me to play worse.  Every hand I feel like I'm running into the nuts which makes it hard to Cbet/bluff.  Pair that with not hitting many flops and I seem to always hover around 15bbs (not good).

Another thing about playin bad is I just have a hard time taking micro tournies serious.  I'll find myself calling off decent stacks when I'm pretty sure I'm behind.  I'm like the kid that looks at his watch before making a bad call (well it's getting late so I guess I'll call even though I know you have it).  Except for me it's well it's only 5 doll hairs, I'm probably behind but what the hell.

So today I decided to play the $26 tourneys to see if I played better.  I started out bluffing away half my stack and got down to 1200 but made a nice comeback.

Sittin at 5k. 120/240 25 in the 42k guarantee and I just made a laydown that I havent been able to make the last few days.....Blinds were 100/200.  MP solid player has 7400 and opens for 500.  I have 5300 on the button and just call with AsJd.  BB (donk) has 2800 and also calls.  Flop is Ks4sAd.  BB checks, MP bets 855 into 1600, I call and so does BB.  Turn is 9s.  BB shoves for 1500, MP reshoves for 6k.  I'm gettin 2.5/1 on my nut flush draw if my A isn't good(10k in the pot and I have 4k).  I debate on making another bad call and eventually decide that a solid player wouldn't reshove there without a hand better than AJ so I fold.  BB has 4d5d and MP has KK.  River 3c.  Good fold.

In the $26 33k KO. I'm sittin at 7600 with blinds at 50/100.  I flopped a set of 3's on a AQ3 flop.  Led out on flop and got one caller.  Turn 8. I check, he bets 330, i make it 850, he shoves, I call.  He is drawing dead with AJ.  Bout the only way i can hold lately.  After that I fucked up a big hand against a big donk.  He opened for 3 units I called on the button with TT.  Flop T52 with two clubs.  He pots it, I put in a small raise, he insta min raises.  I shove.  He still has 4k ( we both had big stacks to start the hand).  He tanks and says he is folding AT.  I could've just called there with position and got at least another bet out of him on the turn ( probably all of his chips) but I thought he had an over pair and couldnt fold.


Sigh. Just busted in the 42k.  150/300  25.  HJ limps, sb limps, I have AKo with 4500 in the bb.  I shove, HJ calls with AA.
