January 30, 2006, 6PM: Played 30 minutes, Lost $80.00 at FT
$1 No-Limit Texas Hold'em

WTF, well lost trying to play from the sb heads up w/bb.  picked the wrong time to but heads.  Lost second big pot again from early position.  Lesson, muck the early position hands! could have avoided the last 17 dollars, all I have to do is ask myself "What can he smooth call with?" I'm having better luck laying down big hands in tourneys than in the live game and this makes no sense.  In tourneys the risk is limited to the buy in, but in the cash game most of the time I am risking more than a buy in for the tourneys I play.
 
Things to remember:
AVOID EARLY POSITION MARGINAL HANDS
BEWARE THE SMOOTH CALL/ SLOW PLAY
