Grossest session of my poker career

It always happens on the days when I have a lot of time to play too... dammit. I'm contemplating playing really late tonight to try to put a dent in this hole I'm in. I finished all my work early so I could play pretty late if I wanted to. I felt myself starting to tilt a little bit at the end. I need to stop playing HU when my tables break because I really feel like I'm at a disadvantage playing 8 tables and it's difficult to play a decent HU game. Not to mention that all these clowns will win 1 decent pot and immediately leave.

Here's a few of the hands:

Soooo you might be thinking it is a bad idea to get it all in with Jacks this deep, but I can rationally explain my play. So I had been opening a pretty good range of hands at this table, and I have a history with bibl0, a decent LAG. I know that he will 3bet me very light, which is exactly what I think happened. The caller in between didn't bother me at all because his VP$P was over 65%. I was a bit surprised when he cold-called my 4bet preflop, which might set off alarm bells, but this guy was so bad that he would've raised with any premium pairs. So the flop looks pretty harmless to me and I am perfectly happy getting all my money in there. Oh man was I wrong.... and the river goes quads just for shits and giggles.

This hand is just another bad beat, but this is how aggro the table had been playing. I won a total of 5 hands at this table out of 150. Keep in mind these are 6 handed tables where you should be winning 17% of the hands on average at least (maybe more for how aggro I play).

I got QQ, KK, and AA a total of 10 times in my session. The biggest pot I won was 10 bucks. I lost 50% of these pots. Definitely time to take a breather, maybe watch some HSP, and ESPN showed a few episodes of the US Poker Open or whatever it's called that I need to watch before they get deleted off the DVR.
