So yesterday I just took it easy until the live grind. I sorted some stuff out, as I got my religious wedding on November but that was about all.
At night I went to the casino, tried to give the papers of my proof of income but it wasn't enough for them. Anyway, played for about 5 hours and a little win.
This is my chip stack from last night, nothing spectacular...
Here is was one Vegas this summer, my second biggest winning session ever.
Last but not least, a couple hands!
HAND 1.
HERO (SB) 2.5k£
JAKE CODY (CO) 8K£
I get dealt Q
K
on the SB and Jake raises on the CO to 50 in the 5/10/20 game. I'm on the BB (but there is a straddle) and 3b to 225, he calls.
Flop: (475£) 9
9
8
(2 players)
Hero bets £175, UTG calls
Turn: (825£) 7
(2 players)
Hero bets 650£, Jake calls
River: (2125£) 3
(2 players)
Hero checks,
Jake goes all-in,
Hero folds
Not to sure about that hand, I felt it's okay and the hand depends mainly on what villain does with his TT/JJ on the river to decide firing or not. At the moment I thought he wouldn't always fold those hands so I checked and gave up.
Hand 2.
HERO: BB w/ 7
7
(2.3k£)
MP: Fish limps with short stack
SB: Reg overlimps
HERO: Complete the straddle (can obv be a raise, but I feel like most of the time I'll just play a MWP OOP which isn't ideal, but it's the boarderline hand, i'd raise 88's for sure.
STRADDLE checks.
Flop: (80£) 6
7
J
(4 players)
SB
SB leads for 75£, I decide to raise to 250£ as I see the fish grabbing his chips to call before I act, so I never expect a raise but expect him to have a hand. On the other side I lost like 2k in a couple hands and I raised like 6 of the last 9 hands so they might think I'm tilted. Straddle calls my 250£, fish in MP folds, SB calls.
Turn: (830£) 6
(3 players)
SB checks, and here I was undecided, I think I clearly check is SB wouldn't have calles, as straddle range looks quite strong and I would give up many times, but as both call I end up betting 550£ and straddle folds but SB calls.
River: (€90) K
(2 players)
SB check, I shove my around 1.3k and SB calls and I scoop the pot.
So that's about all.
I'm gonna study now, then have coaching, and then will probably skip my online grind and go to the casino, give my paper stuff, cashout my deposit and go to the other casino as they close the poker room during the weekend and I'll play at the other poker room meanwhile. But not 100% sure yet.
