			I seem to be on a dry spell.  I can't seem to get anything together.  Didn't have much luck in Tunica a few weekends ago.  Although I finished up ahead overall for the trip, I was disappointed by my play at the 1/2 NL tables. 
 
Got beat of a pot last night playing a home game.  I've got QQ middle position raised to 15.  BB (tight player called) 
 
Flop Q 8 rag.  He checks, I bet 15 knowing he's got something good.  He smooth calls. 
 
Turn A - He checks, I bet 25, he raises to 50.  He'd been check-raising me all night catching me when I'm trying to steal the pot.  I figure I've got him this time. 
 
River 8 - He comes out firing 30 which I expected.  No way he can check the River.  I raise to 90.  He considers and stalls, then goes all in for about 120 on top of his original 30. 
 
I felt the pain before I even had to look at his cards.  Of course I called, he turned over pocket A's.  Interesting he smooth called pre-flop and the flop.  I couldn't make anything else happen after that really. 
 
Lost my last hand of the night with JJ against the same guy.  He had Ac Kc.  Flop 10c 7c 7r.  Of course I couldn't get him off his hand after the flop.  He caught his K on the turn.
