I got absolutely crushed by the deck today at Gretna. I really think this was the worst board runouts I have had ever. We're playing 1-3 nl and I stay around 1k covering the table adding more when I lose pots, which I did often. Could have been a huge day but instead I was a 2k loser in the game.
Hand 1: I button straddle to 6, sb complete, bb completes, utg+1 makes it 18, 4 callers, I call on button with T3off, blinds call 7 to the flop. Flop comes T32 with two spades, checks to utg+1 who bets 80 with about 400 total, folds to me I call, blinds fold. Turn is a nonspade 7. Utg+1 shoves for approx 320. I snap call. He has AsKs. AsKs spikes a spade in a 700+ pot.
Hand 2: 2 limps to me with Kd8d and I raise it up to 25 in the hj. Button calls, bb calls, limpers call. Flop is 842 all clubs. Checks to me I bet 75, button folds, bb folds, the first limper raises to 150, other limper folds, I reraise to 300, limper reraises to 550 total and I call. He tables 86 no spade. 86 spikes runner runner straight for 1100+ pot.
Hand 3: I button straddle and get 3d4h. Sb calls, bb calls, folds to me I check. Flop comes 346 two diamonds. Sb leads 10, bb folds, i raise to 30, sb reraises to 100, i put him all in for 280 and he calls with AA. The board runs out T, T and AA makes better two pair in a just under 600 pot.
Hand 4: 2 limpers to me I open AJ off to 25 in the cutoff, button calls, blinds fold, both limpers call. Flop comes A52 two diamonds. Checks to me I bet 100, button folds, first limper folds, second limper shoves for 355 total. I call. He shows 4d7d. 4d7d makes a flush with the Jd on the river for a 800+ pot.
I felt like I was playing decently well. Yeah I could have avoided a bunch of these spots by simply folding preflop. The most questionable hand was the Kd8d in my opinion. His range there is crushing my hand, but my read on the guy was that he could be making this play with a wide range of hands, which he did. Im not going to sweat it because its counterproductive I just wanted to vent by posting some of the hands here.
Thanks for reading.
PS: I did manage to win two all in pots. One was a guy who button straddled to 6 with a 100$ stack. 4 people limped, and I raised AJ to 35, the button shoved for 100 total and I called. He had QQ and I flopped both the A and the J. For a 200+ pot.
The other was a tricky play on my part where I had opened AcJs on the button, the bb called, and three other players called. The flop came AT3 with two diamonds, it checked to me and I checked for deception. The turn brought the third diamond and it checked to me again. I bet 100 and the sb shoved for 350 total. Everyone folded and I called and tabled AJ and it was good as the sb mucked his hand when a blank hit the river. That was good for a 800+ pot
