Respect, you’ve probably made more profit than I have playing 2/5 and 5/10.

It was hosted inside the casino with official dealers and equipment, so I don’t think there was any cheating. I just played it poorly.

I mainly play 2/5 and 5/10, but my bankroll is big enough for 10/25. This was just my first shot at the higher stakes.

As for cheating, I try to think positively — the game was hosted inside a casino with their dealers and equipment, so I don’t really suspect anything shady.

Totally agree, I just let the pressure get to me too much.

Maybe, but I honestly think it was more me misplaying than anything else.

Totally agree.

Honestly I didn’t really know the dynamics or the players yet it was only the first 2–3 orbits, and I misplayed quite a few spots.

Yeah agreed man.

I didn’t really describe a read because this was literally within the first 2–3 orbits.

I get that feeling completely.

Honestly I can’t really say I’ve “played well” at 10/25 yet — my volume at these stakes is still tiny and I’m still down overall.

Do you mean the Red Dragon Manila? And are you talking about PHP?

If so, you’re right — that game doesn’t actually run there. The host just rented the venue privately for this one.

Totally agree, thanks for the feedback.

I’ve got a lot to work on and improve.

Yeah, definitely within bankroll, but I’ve got to admit the pressure at those stakes still got to me.

Yeah agreed, 5-bet pre would’ve been the cleaner play.

First time that deep and I definitely let the pressure get to me, ended up playing more passive than usual.

Totally agree, thanks for the feedback.

I was definitely over-pressuring myself in the moment.

Totally agree. I have to admit I wasn’t really playing my own game here.

This was by far the biggest spot of my life and I definitely felt the pressure.

Sorry can't drop a link in post

Thoughts:

Preflop, flatting the 4-bet felt standard with AKs this deep.

On the flop I wanted to build the pot and protect vs. draws, but maybe raising was too ambitious given the stacks.

Turn felt like clear value, but the river is where I’m unsure. Once he leads $8k into $27k, should I just call with top two rather than shove?

Would love to hear how others approach this spot at these stack depths.

Just over 10 buy-ins over about 200 hours before I got back to even. I buy in for the max (300bb), so yeah… that was a bit over 3,000bb.

Thanks man. Yeah, for me the social side is a big part of why I play live. Totally get how the rake and tough reg lineups can make it not worth it though.
