9 Handed

I think something about playing 9 handed at the Horseshoe affects the hands I get.  I seriously have not flopped a set in 18 hours of play.  I have had AA twice.  The profitable hands are just gone.  I hope the losing streak I watched Jim battle through a few weeks ago is not creeping onto me and my bankroll.  Needless to say, I had another losing day.  It was not all a waste though.  

I had a few good bluffs.  One time when the flush card hit on the river, I bet it and he insta-folded. The other was against the red shirted older gentleman.  I had nothing.  The problem is, he caught me later when he had something legit.  I also hit a straight twice.  Got paid once.

I got the tourney coming Sunday.  I think it's going to be good to change it up before Monday.  The tourney is a good to chance to not only get a change of pace by playing a different type of poker but also a good chance to get a change of scenery. Hopefully the losing ways are out of my system and I can take this tourney down.
