Bad playing, bad cards. I called all-ins 3 times, and was wrong all three times.

1) From the small blind, I raise up 3x, I have As-3s. Big blind goes all in. I’m pot committed with decent cards. He has Q-Q, I get my A for the win.
2) At 100-200, three players have limped to my big blind. I have A-10. I make a move and push it to 600. One player goes all-in for another 1150, almost all of my chips. That’s odd… he limped in and then goes all-in. Hmm… well, he could have a monster hand that he was slowplaying. Or he could have a marginal hand that he’s trying to bluff me on. He actually said, “I’m playing these and if you suck out on me so be it.”, but he’s crafty. As long as he doesn’t have me dominated I think I’m getting the right price on my money. I call. He has A-Q which holds up.
3) After a mini-comeback, I get Ah-Kd. I bet 3.5x pre-flop, one caller. The flop is all low cards. I check to him, he checks. The turn is a jack, he goes all in. Why didn’t I raise preflop? Just because I didn’t have any pairs, pffooie, I could have forced him out. Unless he had a pair. Aw hell, what do I do. He obviously has a pair of jacks. There are three hearts on the board, any heart gives me a nut flush. Assuming he has a jack that’s 15 outs, so around 30% chance to win. Maybe less, he might have A-J or K-J. I’m getting 2-1 on my money. I call. He has Q-J. I need an A, K, or heart on the river, I don’t get it, I’m knocked out.

Note to self: Perhaps playing a game that emphasizes mental discipline is not recommended when one has given blood that day.
