Rough Day Yesterday

Here's my day yesterday:

Decided to play Pokerstars Daily 30 Grand. It had about 4100 entries and I played extremely tight for about an hour and a half and was in decent position to at least cash. I got QQ under the gun and raised it up 3x. I got one caller and the flop came Q 10 9. Top set! I bet out about 3 quarters of the pot because of the draws and my opponent insta raised all-in. I decided to call, figuring even if she had KJ I still had outs. She (I'm assuming she was a chick). She turns over J 10. An 8 gives her a straight on the turn and I'm out. I actually wasn't too upset - even though doubling up there would have given me an above average stack and I probably would have cashed. At least I got my money in as a 72% favorite.

I've been reading the PLO section in Super System and have been wanting to play more Omaha for awhile now. I entered and $8 4-handed PLO tourney. It was brutal - I lasted 28 hands and didn't win a pot. Right after I jumped in a $4 PLO hi/low tourney and did a little better. I made it through about half the field. I get a little scared when people raise in PLO, I know I shouldn't because they can't be more than a 60/40 favorite - but still - it freaks me out a bit. I guess I have more reading and more practice to do to get decent at this game.

Later I played two $6 six-handed NL hold 'em sit and goes. I got second in the first for $6 and was feeling like my game was locked in. I decided to play another and had JJ about 5 minutes into it. There was a raise and three callers (me being one of them). Flop comes J109. Scary flop, but long story short I get it all in with top set against QQ, and once again an 8 comes on the turn. That's twice today I had top set and twice I lost. Fucking Pokerstars.
