(home game I played at had a bunch of ridiculous masks of dictators. I got Gadafi but it was so beautiful to see Hitler stack someone. Was quite entertaining also to stare down the people not wearing masks while in something like this.)
Played some 2/3 last night and won

Q
Before the river was dealt, I was saying no queen, no queen, no queen in my head because I can shove on literally any other river.
Anyway, I think I have to x now since villain's other Ax like AJ/AT will x behind and AQ will shove on me.
Hero asks how much villain has behind (he says about $400), Hero checks, villain quickly shoves.
Firstly, after pondering this hand for ages, I don't think villain shoves AQ quickly, they at least tank a bit with value no?
But at the same time, I don't see any bluffs they can possibly have and at the time, I quite happily fold - annoyed the dealer gave me the nutworst river, but happy I made a disciplined fold.
At the end of the hand I was like "I'll give you $10 if you can show a card that's not an ace or a queen", he shows the 5 of spades, and I throw him two chips and proceed to vomit. The **** must have been mucking around with 55 or something and I was super mad about it because it was such a large hand.
Oh well. Cool how you can have winning sessions and still be disappointed :') This game innit! Was a 13 hour session and felt pretty horrible afterward. Don't think I'll play next weekend.
Partly because I'm having such a ball playing online:
With that session in the books, I now have a $763 BR which means (according to BRM stuff on page 6) I can move up to 50nl and drop back if I lose 5BIs.

I must admit, I do feel a lot like clanty posting a graph w < 10k hands.
GL me at 50 on the weekend.
