What a roller coaster of a night. I started off my session stuck like 600 then pushed ahead about 1200 playing some limit ring and some heads up then I got in a match with a guy @ 4-8. Actually at the same time I was playing 4-8 I was playing a 10-20 HU , another 10-20 6 max and a 6-12 ring.
This guy was 3 betting and 4 betting every hand @ 4-8 and there were a few 20 BB back and forth in a short period of time. I was getting tired and this was @ 11 PM eastern and it is now almost 6 AM eastern. I didn't really feel like playing him anymore unless we moved up and we moved to 8-16. Same there back and forth and he asked me to go to 10-20. I said ok and closed all of my remaining games.
This guy 3 bet and 4 bet me every hand. Floated just about every flop and would often stick in 3 and 4 bets on the flop with bottom pair or even just pure air. I was fine with that. Guys like this can go on some huge runs but at the same time you can break them down quickly if you know what your doing.
I decided to use a strategy of capping a lot in position and I decided to lay back OOP and not 3 bet too much and get in as many bets on the flop with 2nd pair and I would wait to raise draws.
This worked fine. I beat him up for like 1,500 or so and then he made a huge run and won back 1100 of that. I was still tired and then I said let's play 15-30. He said ok. We move to 15-30 and I beat him for 1k, then another 1k, then he reloads for 600 and he must have won 20 out of 21 hands and most went to showdown. I think he even once made quad kings when I held AA for a huge pot.
We went back and forth for a while and then he went on a monster run and he got back to even. Now my adrenaline was flowing and I said let's play 30-60. I only had 2400 in this account but I thought this was a great opportunity. So away we go for some 30-60
Guy starts off on fire and continues this run but at this point in the match he stopped going animal preflop and on the flop. He started to play more of an ABC game if there is such a thing. He was just doing things I would expect most players to do. So he gets me under 1k and he is running well and I am getting steamed because I am running out of chips and I want to play!!!!
I open my skype and go up and down my list looking for players who play on this network and try and get anything floated to me. My buddy cody says he can send me 1k and I offer him 100c on the dollar then he sees he has reached his transfer limit for the week. ****KKKKKKKK , I am now down below 500. Babar doesn't have any funds there either!!!!!!! ****!!!!!!!!! And then my buddy Jay says sure I can send you 3k for a TDB deposit and I agree. I am now down under 100 HURRY HURRY PLEASE. I stall and let the clock run on every street and poof the 3k arrives!
Now this guy is just hitting everything but he started exploiting me a bit too. Earlier in the match he was very foldy in certain spots that I picked up on but now he started calling down with anything but even when he was peeling with 34 on like q72 he would hit a 3 and then win a showdown vs my aj etc. He was also relentlessly raising turn cards and he was doing well and had me down to about $800. Then I took some deep breaths and did some quick brainstorming and figured out exactly how he was exploiting me and I adjusted.
A lot of times in long matches with a guy you have an edge on and at one point were destroying they pick up on things and adjust in their own ways and it takes a while for you to pick up their patterns. Well I just figured out what this guy was doing to me and then it was off to the races!
We move back over 1k, then 2k, then 3k, then 4k then he starts tilting because what he was doing cannot work anymore because I put an end to it. Then 5k, 6k we get a reload! 7k, 8k and we finish the match with $8830 for a $3500 win. We must have played over 1000 hands and by far the most HU hands I have played in a long time.
