Logged another nice session just now. Haven't played for a few days because my little sister-in-law just got married last night so been pretty busy. Had a great time and I'm not too hung over.
I played really well for probably close to two hours. Managed to lose small pots and scoop the big ones. Also had one 3bet preflop hand where I missed a near disaster 200bbs deep raising K
Q
on the button. BB defended with a 3bet and the flop came jack high with two hearts three way. It checked around and an off suit ace hit the turn followed by an off suit queen on the river. Checked to me and I made a small thin value bet that was called by the BB with A
6
. I wasn't putting him on the A
considering I blocked most of his A
X
value hands and the J
was on the flop. Could have lost a sizable pot had the third heart hit. Crazy he didn't c-bet the flop or turn with his holding. Dodged quite the bullet on that one. Sometimes things just go in your favor even when you lose. Speaking of things going in your favor...

I elected to just jam the flop over BB's shove simply because there were a lot of cards that could kill my action versus the SB on the turn. People at this limit tend to have a hard time folding overs. The turn was quite the sweat though.
Had another fun hand where I got three streets of value from A
3
versus my A
Q
on a A
3
Q
flop that ran out with a turn T
and river T
. So basically the guy flops top and bottom pair and stacked off on the river for a full buy-in when he at best splits versus all other aces but AK/AQ. Easy money.
Not sure if I will play more tonight or not. However I'm off for the next six days and should get a decent amount of playing time in.
