Idc who you are, 90 hours in 7 days is rough as hell. Sorry OP, but hey at least it'll be a nice paycheck.

Yeah, it's rough. Obviously I usually don't have to do that. This will be the 3rd time in my 4.5 months on, the first of which was to get extra training before I was put on by myself, the 2nd of which I was covering for someone sick.

It really is awful. 1st day I think to myself, okay, pace myself, I can do this. 2nd day np, 3rd day getting tired, 4th day omfg when will this end, 5th day seriously hating life, 6th day super crabby, 7th day sore/tired/angry/pissed/come home and sleep 16hrs straight.

Jeez. Most I have ever done is probably 70-75 in 5 days, my old boss was a Sri Lankan guy who was in his mid 40s and he'd be at the office by 6am each morning and would still be there when I would leave (6-7pm), plus he had a 1 hour drive each way. God knows how some people do it.

Yea, I don't miss those days in public accounting when I had to work crazy hours. Hopefully you get a big paycheck.

Props man, Can't imagine doing 16 hours of physically demanding work a day.



105 hours in public tax accounting this week... Fortunately my most strenuous activity is filling up my water bottle.

Yeah, I'm very exhausted right now. 4 more hours of work

very cool thread, gl! I haven't played online in quite awhile but am interested to follow some of your HHs (more overbet river shoves plz ty ty)

Sure man, I'll find some hands from my last couple sessions to post.

Here's some hands from this month so far at 100nl


This hand was gold because fish-reg at the table was saying villain here played this super bad and villain here was talking smack at table previously or something (I wasn't really following it prior to this). Anyways, fish kept talking bad about this guy then this reg says his play was good and that I played it awfully and am clearly a fish for calling and that his range is, "obviously" only QQ+ otr... Clearly not the case sir. I purposely snap checked flop and tank-called turn to appear weak/like I had AK

I don't really like my turn call vs. the jam here.... villain x/j 3-way is nasty. Kind of whatever I think, though. Guy can still have a lot of combo draws that can play like this.

Lol @ the table talk in hand 1. Table talk on Bovada cracks me up.

Played about 35mins 2 tables 100nlz. Ended the session with a super annoying hand, wow! +$43 for the sess

I open 87 from MP for 3bb

CO 3bets me to 9bb, and has around a 90bb stack.

Folds to me and I flat

Flop comes Q54

I check to him and he c-bet 9bb for half pot. I make a light float vs. this sizing and call.

Turn comes 7

I check and he bets half pot again, I call.

River 7

I check hoping he ships it on the flush coming river and he does. I call and he shows

47

WP sir.

lol 47ss what a genius

unlucky

Played 100nl reg for around 1.5 hours. +$82.

Had an unreal run of good preflop cards, but ended up having to fold a lot post flop due to bad run outs and playing vs lol-i-have-a-good-hand sizings. Couple bluffs didn't go through unfortunately. Could have been better.

haha 47 hands is great
subbed
David Jimenez from rio

hey @Clanty added you on skype

AJo I dont like your 4b sizing here,i think this is kinda way too big, 22-23 should be more than enough
QQ i x/f turn and definetly x/f river
54hh i think is wayyyy too lose to defend MP vs BB but maybe u had some good reads on the guy
AQo on Q758 im never stacking there 3way ott unless i have 88+
rest seems like wp!

I agree with QQ/AQ. Although with the AQ I was thinking in game that he could check turn with some pair + FD hands and then when other guy bets and I call he may decide to ship those. It's likely a fold vs. the population however, but that's what I was thinking at the time. The small donk is often going to be a draw-heavy type of hand in this spot as well, as that's been my read over the thousands of hands I've played vs. the population. He did infact have a draw, but I never put him on that hand (obviously)

54s is whatever, probably close to breakeven or slightly +EV since he's going to have a very strong range and I can just play it well post flop. If you're calling with stuff like KQs/JTs etc. here 54s is honestly better since villain is more likely to get it in on board run outs that favor that exact hand. Post flop is standard

AJ 4b sizing is fine, he made it to 10.5bb pre and we're 111 deep and I'm OOP. It's around 2.5x sizing so if he had made it 9bb my sizing would have been around 22-23. Going to 22-23 is too small vs. this sizing OOP though unless I'm playing a very nitty 4b strategy. Turns out the sizing was still too small because he 3b/called 57s, so what a donk.

The QQ hand is by far the worst hand I played. Turn call can be close vs. lots of villains, and river is kind of awful. His flop bet was atrocious though, so wp by him to bink the 2 outter.

the hand with the 2 black ladies why are you checking as opposed to leading the flop especially after 3 betting and taking control pre? as played after checking the flop based on villains sizing id personally be check raising with basically any2 as opposed to check calling all the way down

X or c-bet with QxQc there is fine and either play likely has similar EV.

X/r is obviously spew, but turn is where I started to (arguably) make mistakes, and river is clearly bad as I've said. The reason I called was due to blocking AQ and him not really wanting to shove many hands and I've seen many people spew off with middling pairs when checked to (see flop, case and point). It still ends up being a rather bad call though.

we'll agree to disagree on the hand which is part of the fun of discussing hands, GL

I would've played QQ hand the same way without calling the river jam. Obviously board runout sucked, but I would've played the flop and turn the same.

There is no enjoyment if you don't actually discuss it.

Why do you think I should x/r 2nd pair?

So, I woke up at around 1:30PM today and usually I wake up right after 5:00PM to get ready for work. (I work nights if anyone forgot). So, I woke up about 3.5 hours early today which will make today quite awful. Anyways, decided to take advantage of it and grinded a couple hours of poker -- two tabling 100nl zone. I ran well overall, but also thought I played close to my A-game. I only made a couple mistakes which were "meh" spots to begin with.

+$410

Not enough for you in my thread?
Flop is 100% a check-call. I mean, if you said "List all your combos in this spot and then rank them in order of how likely you are to check", QQ with a club would literally be top of my list. Turn is also a call. River, you know you should have folded, although your point about blocking the straight is true. But you've got enough combos of better bluff-catchers in your range at that point (e.g. KQ and maybe some AA) and also some monsters (AQs, KJ), that the queens can safely be folded.
Villain's flop bet is, as you say, terrible.

I would for sure weight QQ to a significantly higher checking %, but I really don't think the EV changes much there (though vs. the population it likely does, TT? seriously?). What's snowie's awful EV ratings say? Rest I agree with.

Worked 14 hours today and I have been up for the last 20.50 hours as I'm writing this. As I said in a previous post I'm covering for someone's vacation so I'll be working the next 6 consecutive days. INB4 90+ hour work week.

I looked at it briefly yesterday. If I recall correctly, it only c-bets about 55% of its range in that spot, with all combos of QQ and JJ at 100% and tons of mixing with most other hands. Betting supposedly burns 2bb of EV, so it's a blunder. I think the river call costs you about 6bb. As you point out, these EV numbers go out of the window when villains are playing stupidly. I wonder what villain would have done if he hadn't binked his 2-outer.
