Decided to put in just a short session as i ended up not feeling very well about 5 hours in, grinded a few more hours though and then just decided to head home. Will be putting in another session tonight, aiming for 10-12 hour session.

Ran pretty terribly, the few bluffs i tried went badly, missed some big draws, squeeze JJ into AA in a std spot, ran KK into AA, and lost a 1400$ flip.

Ummmm, kinda ran godlike. Essentially my night went: Flop set/2p get in large pot, hold. Obviously i lost some big pots and was coolered in some big pots, but saturday nights are so ridic soft that its pretty hard to lose money on them. Didn't really have any special hands occur, most of them iirc were pretty std outside of a few weird thin value bets and some bluffs that went well/awry.

i like the shoutout back in may--at that table i might have been the best player , or that night, but theres like 38922435 ppl above me on my rankings.

i think youre still thinking on internet speed instead of live speed. even if you a 7% 3b live, its only twice an hour, and even that could be getting out of line and ppl wont even notice.

seems like a lot of your swings arent really "explained" or looked into. you jump right to the interesting hands. your biggest edges are going to be in the smallest pots

Had a few interesting hands tonight, this was the one that stuck out the most tho. It was also an interesting night as the table was all casino regulars, mostly under 30, and a few of us younger guys were joking about how it was probably the hardest table to ever run at the casino. Ended up down due to losing a few flips and having KK<QQ for a large pot.


Interesting Hand:

Blinds = 3$-5$
Effective stack = 800ish
Hand =A8dd
Position = BTN

Villain= Villain is an old reg who i have loads of history vs, we generally stay out of each other's way and play nitty abc.

Pre: Folds to me on the btn, i raise to 15, sb calls (only random at table) and bb calls (villain).

Flop: As9hKs, sb checks and bb leads fairly quickly for 50, i think for about 20 seconds and call, sb folds quickly.

Turn: 6h, villain checks fairly quickly, i bet 100 after thinking about 30 seconds, villain calls fairly quickly.

River:4c, villain shoves about $490 after thinking for under 10 seconds (pot size is 350), i tank for about 3-4 min and call.


The dynamic behind this hand is really interesting imo. Villain is the oldest reg in the casino (in his 70's), he has a very dynamic style, however most of the time he plays fairly nitty.

After i first started playing regularly at the casino we had a conversation that was essentially summarized in "we respect eachother so lets play nice and not make big plays". I pretty much just nodded my head and agreed and made the perfunctory response of respect and such, but i really didn't care either way, however i didn't try to make any big plays vs him, more because of his nittyness then anything else.

Part of the main reason i ended up calling was this above dynamic (he knows i know this, and thus he can take advantage of it), also i had never seen him take a line like this for value, and i know that he knows i have an A so i'd expect him to bet hands like A6 or A4 smaller for value.

Results: I won the hand.

Going to be fairly busy this weekend, might get to the next part of my trip report sometime next week. Thank you for reading and best of luck at the tables!

Hand from last session:


Blinds= 3$-5$
Effective stack= 1000ish
Hand= A9hh
Position = SB
Villain: CO, 2+2er who has been playing well and agro. He had mentioned something about posting a hand on a forum earlier in the night and i had asked him about being a 2+2er, he said that he knew who i was and had recently read my TR.

PRE: Folds to HJ who makes it 20 (HJ is a young chinese kid who is over 1700 deep and very agro), CO calls and i call.

Flop: Jd9sJs, i check, HJ checks, villain makes it 50, i quickly raise to 150, HJ folds, villain SNAP calls (the snap call is why this hand occurred the way it did).

Turn: Ad, i check, villain makes it 275, i tank for about 45 seconds, i call.

River: 8s, villain shoves 500ish, i tank 30 seconds and call, he showed 10s10c and i won the pot.

Thoughts: The reason this hand occurred is because villain knew that i didn't have a jack and i knew he knew that, so when he snap calls my flop raise i know that he is trying to act as strong as he possibly can and is trying to shut me down and win the pot on later streets. When the A turned and i checked i thought it was likely that he would check behind with draws and only bet his air type hands (for fear of getting check shoved on and i also thought he would check behind the few Ax combos that beat me), when he bets ott and i call he has to assume that i have an A or spades.

He shipped the river because he assumed that he would be repping both spades and FH well (he technically does), however due to how the flop played out i had a fairly easy decision.
