I spoke too soon...

Of course, having posted that I was up for the month I then played again and dropped $2,000.

Hands like this didn't help:

Clearly putting your whole stack in on middle set when there's a straight on the board is a good idea...grrrrr

Still, it could have been so much worse - when this next river came I thought I'd been done over, but it turned out ok!
