Session 11
I played 2 separate sessions tonight:
2 hours at 1/3: +326
3.5 hours at 2/5: -197
However, I feel I played extremely well.
1/3
Hand 1:
Hero has 2
3
bb 500 eff
2 limps, sb completes I ch bb
Pot is 11
Flop 2
3:diamondT
Hero bets 10, Acceptable small losing Indian player calls who open limped in MP
Pot is 31
Turn J
Hero bets 25, He calls
River 2
Hero bets 100, He folds.
- I thought about check/raising river here but villain is very "afraid" of me and likely is not bluffing this river at a high enough frequency with his missed draws and is always checking back showdown value, but he might look me up with AT or JT or w/e.
--------------------------------------
Hand 2:
Effective stacks are 500
Hero raises TT in EP to 12
MP1 calls, HJ calls, SB calls
Pot is ~45
Flop is 9
7
3
SB leads out for 35
Hero raises to 100
MP1 folds, HJ (villain from previous hand snap calls), SB folds
Pot is 270
Turn is 4
Hero bets 125
HJ calls
Pot is 520
River is 7
Hero checks planning to ch/f, HJ checks AMHIG
- On the flop I was raise/folding for value vs SB and the board is pretty draw heavy so I wanted to "protect" from draws behind me. Anyway when the HJ calls I'm pretty worried but there are enough big combo draws that I think I still have a fair amount of equity in the pot. On the turn I bet for value again to charge draws even though he is basically +EV to call. Maybe I should have bet more? Felt like I'd be over playing my hand. River is a great card for me, but his river calling range has me absolutely crushed so I think a clear ch/f is in order given my reads.
-----------------------------------------
Hand 3:
Hero has 77 UTG+2 and open raises to 12
6 callers (lol)
Flop is Q
9
7
Pot is ~65
I bet 45
MP1 calls, the rest fold
Pot is 155
He has about 450 behind
Turn is Q
I bet 125 and plan to ship all rivers, he folds
- I have played with this guy and this is a good spot to stack a donk and check to give a free card if the T pairs maybe but he has more than enough TP hands OTF than when the Q pairs on the turn his calling range becomes super inelastic. Yes he might be folding JT/68 (he said he folded 68) but QT+ is all calling and they are all calling a river ship.
2/5
Hand 1:
First orbit still. First hand at table I open raised, big station right behind me calls, BB calls, flop is 7
3
4
and i shut it down (I think I had like KQ no heart) and just check/folded the flop/turn. Might have been next orbit or the next hand, but when I checked the flop (this is great c-betting board) I saw a pro give me this "wtf" look because he knows that I know etc... but people know I've been playing a mix and maybe he thinks I'm scared money. Most people are sitting 1.5k+
Hero has 88
Few hands later
BTN straddled pot, 550 effective, SB completes, Banker Whale calls in MP
Hero raises to 45 in the HJ
BTN 3bets to 105, folds to Hero who tank ships, BTN folds
BTN can 3bet light and I think I read the situation well
Hand 2:
Hero has AJos in EP
I raise to 20, 3 callers (all loose passive calling stations)
Pot is 75
Flop is A
8
8
Checks, Hero bets 55, Optometrist on the BTN calls
Pot is 185
Turn is 5
Hero bets 105, BTN calls
Pot is 395
River is 6
Hero bets 125, BTN clicks it back to 250, I fold
I think this is pretty thin value and I almost checked the flop then tried to play a good turn/river but I am pretty comfortable with out I played the hand
