I've noticed not a lot of people have been three betting in these stakes. Usually they have a strong hand when they do. Also I'm not burning money on draws like I use to. I would try to go for runner runner type hands in desperation of winning a pot. That's just pointless.
Huge leak there.
I have been playing poker for over ten years or so. I have the experience but not consistently playing like some of you guys. I'm sure there are really great players out there and they might be sitting at my table. I don't dream of going pro or anything but I really want to improve. Love this game.
Had a good hand for stacks. Was dealt 99 on the bb. UTG+1 raised to .35, the button called, and I three bet to 1.25.
UTG+1 called the button folded so it was heads up.
Flop came J 5 6 rainbow.
I bet about 2/3rds pot and he called.
Turn was 7 rainbow giving me a gut shot.
I checked and he shoved for about $5. I insta-called and he flips over 88 for a OESD.
River was 10.
That one felt good.
As I was typing this I got AA and just doubled up against JJ. Running well tonight.
May all your flops be monsters!
