Honestly I'd be a bit curious to see just how bad of a jam it was facing an obvious KK+ utg l/rr.

Lol live 10/25 players.

I did tell him I think I win. You wouldnt really consider that a slow roll would you?

I think it was the perfect thing to stay. He should be rolling out first:

1) It’s the proper order
2) There’s a good chance he beat your AA - he shouldn’t slow roll you.
3) did he hesitate at all? Maybe he wanted info from you if he indeed beat you with the flush.
4) if you roll out first he’s going to pretend he had AA and muck and you’ll never know.

It’s proably once in a blue moon that you get to play with him, but my suggestion if it happens again is to be kind of a jerk, I think the villian roll will actually get you a better chance for him to try and just stack lite, just to beat you. But once you establish yourself as a nice serious player, he will purposefully play better. It’s a silly concept, but sometimes being a jerk will get you payed more, as long as your ok being a jerk.

I dont think this guy is capable of playing well. Earlier he cold called $40 and then a 3 bet to $220 with 96.

He bought in for $1000, built up to $2600 and lost $3000 all in 1 hour.

Lolololol ok that’s a separate type of crazy

Id like to officially thank the Isle for raising the max buy in to $1000 on Feb 1st.

Since Feb 1st, Ive won $5500 in 24 hours. A mere $229/hr.

Am I running good? Obviously, but the larger buy in has brought in lots of new players who have been playing at the Hard Rock previously. The games have been looser, more action and there is more money on the tables than ever before. That's a good combo.

I'm also on an 11 day winning streak going back into January, which covers 41.5 hours at +$7681 for $185/hr.

3 of my biggest hands today

1) EP opens to $15. MP calls. I call 8c7c OTB. SB calls. BB 3 bets to $75. It folds back to me. We are $1000 effective and there's lots of dead money in the pot so I decide to make a loose call. We go HU

Flop ($195) Ah6h3h. He checks. I take a shot at it and fire $80. He check raises to $225 and I fold like a cheap suit. Blah

2) I limp 33 in EP. Same guy from HH1 raises to $20 in MP. The button and SB call. I call

Flop ($85) Jh3h2h. SB checks, I check. MP bets $60. Button fold. SB calls. I decide to call and see the turn.
Turn ($265) Ac. SB leads $125 with $325 behind. Im almost certain he has the Ah and probably a J.

MP has about $700 and I cover

I raise to $300. MP folds and SB calls.

River ($865) Qd. He checks. I shove. He calls and mucks.

3) Same guy from HH2 limps UTG. I raise to $25 8c5c in LP. Button calls and UTG calls.

Flop ($80) Ad5h6c. UTG checks. I bet $25. Button folds. UTG calls.
Turn ($130) 5s. He checks. I bet $75. He check raises to $250 with $125 behind. I shove and he folds.

I did plenty of complaining last summer when the games were terrible so I guess I should do some celebrating now that the games are great. I'm on a 16 session in a row winning streak.

63 hours
$8400
$133.33/hr

I wish I couldve played longer sessions during this time that Ive been running good but Ive been sick. Ive had a really bad cough that gets worse as they day goes on so Ive had to leave around 3 PM each day when my cough starts to get uncontrollable. I think Im at the end of whatever **** I have so Ill be putting in more hours the rest of the month.

Here are a few hands from the past day or so

1) UTG fish limps. I limp Ah2h OTB. SB raises to $15 and we both call.

Flop ($45) 6h6d7h SB bets $40. UTG insta min raises to $80 with $425 total. He min raised so quickly that it seemed like he was planning to did it before he even saw the flop so I seriously doubt he has a 6. I put him on a 99 type hand.

I reraised to $200. SB folds. UTG goes into the tank and starts mumbling about how he slow played his KK and now hes in trouble. He starts to shove but then changes his mind saying he knows I have a 6. We've played together a good amount and he hates me. I have no idea why. He mumbles to himself again and this time shows me KK. Theres no way this guy is folding KK, especially to me. Eventually he shoves his chips in and I called.

Turn 7d
River 3h

2) UTG raises $20 and gets 3 calls. I reraise to $120 with AA. Only UTG+1 calls which is the same guy from HH1.

Flop ($300) T75. He checks. He only has $140 left so I shove in. He calls with 66.

Turn 2
River 6

3) 5 way limped pot. I have 8s7s in the BB.

Flop ($25) Js6c5h. I check. UTG bets $30. MP whale calls. I call
Turn ($115) 6s. I lead $50 to rep the 6 but I have a straight draw and flush draw now.

UTG calls and then MP raises to $150. All 3 of us have $1000+
I think I have enough equity here to call and MP will def pay me off if I hit but I really dont like making a call like this when the board is paired and I could be drawing dead. If I cant confidently bet the river when I hit, then I normally let it go. I folded as did UTG.

Dealer rabbit cammed for me and the river was the 2s. MP had 67. UGH.

4) MP fish limps. I raise to $25 8c7c OTB. He calls HU
Flop ($55) Ad8s4c. He checks/calls $35
Turn ($125) Qh. X/X
River ($125) Kd. He leads $30. Im pretty sure he has a weak ace here. I raised to $130 and he folded.

Played NO Harrahs 4 consecutive nights last week (Mon thru Thur nights). Shipped ~$500 over ~25 hours just by shortstacking and nitting it up.

Definitely a different game than mine back home, especially in (a) can BI for as much as deepstack at table (not my wheelhouse, for sure, felt quite uncomfortable at one table the only time I actually built a non trivial stack) and (b) real difference in quality of games (ranging from meh to OMG-this-is-the-best-1/3NL-game-I've-ever-sat-in-ever-WTF-is-going-on?).

Gclueless1/3NLnoobG

GG, in USA#1 you have this experience like every other session.

Im not kidding.

I can say really only 1 of the 7 sessions I played (I broke up nights with dinner / parade breaks) was OMG-WTF awesome. Most of the others seemed a bit run-of-the-mill (although not bad by any stretch).

Just for fun, I kept track of the times 100+bbs ($300+) stacks went in. In my game back home ($300 max BI), they very rarely go in (in a 8:15 session on Sunday I don't believe I saw it happen once although I admittedly wasn't paying careful attention). Most of the time big stacks went in, it was defensible, other than some lol times:

Defensible:

1) AKs ($600, active player) raises UTG, KK ($350) flats right behind, AA ($650, active player) 3bets, AKs 4bets, KK shoves, AA shoves. AKs sigh calls (understandable at this point?).

2) A minraise to $6, 66 ($800) flats, 2 calls, 77 ($800, same guy as hand 1 AKs) 3bets to $80, 66 calls (ok, whatever, lol), HU to KK6 flop, 77 cbets, 66 slowplays, 7r turn (lol), bet/call, Ar river, 66 crying calls the shove thinking AK got there.

3) Raised multiway, 77 vs 66 with $500 stacks get it in on a Q76r flop (lol, it's the next night but 66 is the same guy in hand 1 AKs / hand 2 77, he's in lottsa big pots obviously although doesn't seem ******ed).

4) I limp AA $320 effective, Button $20 with AKs, I limp/reraise to $75, he shoves. Meh, he doesn't know me, he's only been at the table for an hour where I've only won one hand by tabling one J after my river shove isn't called on a K443Jr runout where I had JJ).


WTF:

1) Guy hasn't been doing nothing crazy. $450 stack. Knows all about the casino and rules. Has been cashing in peoples money and adding chips to his stack. The only time in 2 hours he's gotten big money in postflop he flopped a set. There's a raise, 55 calls (covers, and is aggro, not sure if history between them), he calls with 88, so relatively small pot to J75cc flop and they both get in stacks (WTF?!?).

2) $500 effective. Stacks go in by the river with AK vs JJ on AJ3hhA7r runout (meh, imo).

3) $400 effective, raised, 3way to KT9hh flop and AA gets it all in vs QJ (lol, imo).

4) Same guy as hand 3 AA idiot, he gets in $300 by turn with 86hh on T84hhTr, then lol turns his hand face up thinking hand is over (hits and obviously doesn't get paid off, lol).

5) Same guy as hands 3 and 4 idiot, this time barrelling off $550 (against the aggro guy who was in defensible big hands), by calling off $35 preflop with 84hh then barrelling for stacks when checked to HU on QJTr6r6r vs aggro guy's lol calling station A6 (backdoor flush draw on flop).

6) An aggro guy comes to the table, $300 effective, raises A5o in EP, 7ways (lol) to AKJhh, and gets in in vs a EP's donk with world behind (and is good, lol).

7) Saw $400 stacks go in with turned nut flush in raised pot versus raising opponent who claimed a flush (but didn't show so suspect).

8) Massive fish gets in $300 postflop with TP versus baby flush who shoves turn PSB.



CLIFFS:

- 100bb+ stacks went in 12 times in 25 hours (about once every two hours)
- 8 of these times were fairly to totally lol, and 3 of these were by the same person in like a 2 hour period (i.e. eliminate this guy from the mix and you have 100bb+ stacks going in just 5 times over 25 hours in a lol fashion)
- however, I didn't keep track of medium sized pots, and the final game I played in had like $200 pots every hand / every other hand (no one getting in stacks, but way too much money going in often)

GsorryforcloggingupyourthreadwiththeseHHsMike,butI feltIhadtotabulatethemsomewhere,lolG

#1 and #4 in your first list are NOT defensible in IMO. At least not for the 2 guys with AKs

17 wins in a row and counting. I got handed some money today.

1) 2 EP limps. Cutoff raises to $15. I make it $65 AsKs SB. Cutoff calls with a total stack of $545. I cover.

Flop ($145) Ah7s7d. I check. He bets $80. I call
Turn ($305) Qs. I think he probably has AK also so I plan to crai and free roll him. I check. He bets $100. I shove. He calls with AhJh. He has 2 outs and misses

2) UTG limps. Im UTG+1 and raise to $25 AJ. He calls HU

Flop ($55) AJJ. He leads $30. I call
Turn ($115) K...he shoves $350. lol

He had AQ

Yeah, but at least they aren't completely lol ******ed.

#1 is a tough spot as the 3better with AA is the probably the most active player at the table apart from AKs, so from the AKs perspective I understand the 4bet in a pissing war and then at the end he's getting close to 3:1 to make a sigh call. Obviously if people only end up with AA/KK here then bad, and in my game if you're getting in 200bb preflop with AKs you're typically way behind, but I thought this case was a bit of an exception.

#4 is likely bad if you know my image and my likely range there. Having said that, I have a wider limp/reraising range than KK+, and the only hand he's seen me partly show kinda looks like a massive bluff / overvalue.

In the end, they've got AKs. It's obviously not fistpump, but I didn't consider it quite lol either, so I gave them the benefit of doubt.

18 in a row. The streak is still alive. Today was a much tougher up and down session though.

1) 2 EP limps. I limp 9c7c in MP. Insane guy on my left raises to $25 and all of us fishy limpers call.

Flop ($100) Tc7s6c. Checked to me. I lead $75. Raiser insta calls. The other guys fold.
Turn ($250) 2h. I check. He thinks and checks.
River ($250) 9d. I check planning to call any bet. He bets $220. I call and he says "A high" and mucks without making me show.

2) I open $20 QhJs. Maniac calls in the BB.

Flop ($40) Qs7c7d. X/X
Turn ($40) Tc. He checks. I bet $25. He check raises to $75. I normally fold here but this guy keeps doing crap like this so I call.
River ($190) Kc. He shoves $275. I want to rip his throat out but politely fold instead.

3) Couple hands later. I open to $20 AA. Same guy calls
Flop ($40) KT8. I bet $30. He calls
Turn ($100) 3. X/X
River ($100) K. He bets $50. I call. He shows a T and mucks when I show.

4) I open $20 Js9s OTB. SB calls.

Flop ($45) Ts 4s 3c. He checks. I bet $25. He min cr to $50. I call
Turn ($145) Kd. X/X
River ($145) 8h. He checks. WTF? Min check raise on the flop is almost always a big hand but now he seems afraid of the K on the turn. I bet $100. He calls with AA. UGH!

5) UTG nit limps. EP limps. MP raises $30. LP calls. I call 44 BB. UTG and EP call

Flop ($150) Qd9d4c. I check. UTG bets $45. MP and LP call. I cr to $300.

UTG is a nit of massive proportions. He shoves $345. MP calls. LP folds. I call.

Turn ($1230) 2s. Im almost certain UTG has 99 and I need to make some money in the side pot but Im not sure how much MP will call. I have $475 left and he covers. I decide that betting anything less than all in with a pot this big is kind of stupid so I shoved. MP instacalled.

River was some brick.

UTG QQ

I won the side pot. MP didnt show but later said he had JdTd. I got set over setted and still won $100. I'll take it.

I only won $130 today but the winning streak is alive and well.

18 in a row? damn bro gj. keep it going.

Get it to 20 and gg said he'd upload an avatar!!@@!!@1

Challenge accepted!!

Do I get to choose the avatar?

On a non poker related note....my son graduated last summer from the high school where the mass shooting occurred yesterday. He saw the murderer every day at lunch but never talked to him.

Wow thats crazy

Ha, I did actually wear an avator of the victor's choosing for a month. Quite demeaning when you consider I'm the president of the Avatarless Club (tonight's special guest speakers at our weekly Thursday night meeting: the Canadian Team Figure Skating team!).

Can't honestly remember if the prop bet has expired now or not. But good luck going for 20, insane, I can't even comprehend that!

Ggogogo,imoG

Wow.

As you know, Parkland,FL last year was named FL safest city.

Talk about variance.

Parkland has to be one of the richest suburbs in the Country. Definitely the richest in S. Florida.

2 EP limps. I limp 88 in LP. 5 to the flop

Flop ($25) A98 rainbow. SB bets $15. EP calls. I raise to $40. SB calls.
Now EP reraises to $100. I call. Now SB rereraises to $240. We are all $1000ish deep. EP folds. I fold putting SB squarely on 99 and he shows .....of all things AA. Nice hand Sir.
