Second Verse, Same As The First

Through the second round  - phew. 

Started With KQ off and called a preflop raise.  I missed the flop,  but called a decent sized bet with two overs...  exactly the type of move I have been looking to avoid in the first couple rounds. That was my first mistake of the round and my failure was complete after missing the next card and folding.

I played KJ off from a middle position and hit a king on the flop.  It was a scary board,  but I got a jack on the river... sadly I couldn't get him to call my value bet,  so took down a medium hand...  perhaps I bet too much?

I raised from a middle position with A10 suited, but couldn't get any callers.

I had A9 off in the small blind and everyone folded so I raised big blind.  flop had an ace,  along with jack queen. I bet,  he calls.  Turn is a ten..  I hope he doesn't have a king.  I bet,  he calls.  River was six,  i bet,  he calls.  i had A9, he had A8 and a flush  draw.  chop chop.

i get eights in good position and call a raise. flop comes  4, 7, 8... i flopped a set!!! What are the chances someone has 5, 6? First to act bets 1200 and I'm thinking when the guy after me throws in his 1200. forgetting the rules of poker,  i raise to 2500 and let that guy take his bet back.  But he calls, the fourth guy folds, and the initial raiser calls.  Fourth street is a nine...  what are the chances someone is playing J10? First to act checks to me and with 9,000 chips in the pot,  i lay down a monster 6,000 chip bet. Guy to my left calls,  first to act folds. River is a five - 4 5 7 8 9 board.  I'm gutless and don't value bet the 22K pot, he checks,  and my trip eights beat his trip fours. First to act had an over pair,  so maybe i should have been less aggressive in chasing him out and i definitely should have bet the river.  Another 3,000 in chips is an extra thirty hands at the end of the night.  Second mistake this round?  Dunno, but won 13,000 in chips on that hand.

Big Slick in the small blind...  i three bet the raise and took the pot.

I got aces again in a middle position,  but nobody called my raise.

I had A3 suited in the small blind,  and called a raise,  but had to fold after the flop.

I got Big Slick again and three bet with position to take it down.

Kings again,  and got some callers... no ace,  but no calls wheni bet the flop.

48,425 at the end of the second,  but I am getting a lot of good hands and that can't last.

On  to round three,  then dinner...
