Last night at about 3:30am. 7 handed. Hero has recently moved to a new table due to tables breaking and consolidating. Effective stacks are between $300 and $600 with a handful of players having Hero's $580 covered. This would be an incredibly juicy table if I didn't have work in 4 hours :\ Table is your typical late night loose-passive game where 50% of the hands are straddled, most players are limping/calling straddles hoping to bink. Money is sloshing around the table between some of the weaker players while the tighter guys (myself included) look to pounce at the right opportunity.
Hero is one of the few that is raising, but most hands are getting limp/called for $20-$30 so Hero is routinely creating pots that are $50-$75 on the flop and playing a stronger range than the table in position. The entire table's limp/call range is damn near ATC, but realistically more likely any SC, SG+1, SG+2, Axs, PP's and Broadways. Not much raising aside from Hero. Nobody at the table has 3! aside from Hero who has 3! multiple times in the last hour (including raising straddles big from the SB/BB).
V1 is to Hero's direct left. He is a rec player MAWG and has lost with AA three times within the last hour to the same guy. He raised to $12 each time and got cracked by small suited connectors each time (76s, 32s, 54s). Guy has been pretty unlucky but he also overvalues TP and paid him off each time. Stack of $500.
V2 is two seat's to Hero's left. Probably around 60, but looks like a more serious player than V1. Stack of $1200 so I'm not trying to tangle with him OOP with one pair hands. Plays a tighter range than most of the table but wide by my standards (though probably 'normal' for 3:30am).
V3 is irrelevant to the hand but is the guy that doubled up off V1 three times. Stack of $400. Limp/calls pretty much ATC.
OTTH,
V3 limps in EP

Hero looks down at 5
