Fear and Loathing at the Micros

So I had some decent hole cards tonight a bunch of AA, KK and AKos. But really got no action with them at all. I was happy with my play - but if you are sitting with a bunch of NITs or TAGs what can you do? As you can see at 3/4 mark of my session I got it all in with TT vs K10 - the villain flopped a K obviously. It's just so hard to get back from a beat like that in a session like this. I guess not tilting helps :) 

As you can see my ev was about $6.50 - so bit frustrating but woteva, it'll equal itself out. 

As I alluded to earlier today - so hard to get action and I think this small sample of a 1000 hands somewhat backs this up. But I might be wrong? I will stick to 5NL tomorrow as well. I know that with good cards and/or action I can win at 5NL - just gotta find those good spots.

Here are some relatively interesting hands:

The villain in this hand was a fish and I saw him limp again with kings after this hand :)

Guess I should be happy the villain didn't raise the nuts on the river?

Villain was a fish and seem to be spewy, when a Q came on the river felt hard for him to have a legitimate Q hand so yea a big bluff, perhaps a bit spewy myself?
