Playing 2,3,5 NL with about a $900 effective stack.
I vary my style between TA, LA, trappy, and maniac. I have been on a non-stop winning streak these past 2 months so many regulars are at least wary of me. This particular morning I decided to be a maniac who forgot his lithium.

Early position raises to $15. The player to my right, who is very tight and reluctant to fold (particularly to me), 3 bets to $50.
I look down at 7,2hh and decide to go crazy with them. I cold 4bet to $165. No lithium for me this particular morning.
The woman to my left, who plays like a nit and always raises 10x, snap cold calls. Folds around to the 3 better on my right who looked like he desperately wanted to 5bet shove all in, but given the snap call by the nit simply calls.

Flop 7s,5h,3h

The villain to my right checks.
I have top pair (no way it's good) and a flush draw. With a $500 pot and $700 remaining in my stack I shove all in.
The nit to my left snap calls.
The villain to my right, after quite a bit of frustration, mucks his hand (which would have been the winner) figuring the nit must have him beat if I don't.

Turn brick. River brick.

I tell the nit, "nice hand", and to much hawing and guffawing show my 7,2.

A few seconds go by and the nit hasn't shown. 10 seconds. Is this a slow roll? Then, muck. She had AhQh.

I scoop the $2k pot and have a story to tell.

Another day, another case of the f*ck arounds.

Late in the session of another 2/3/5. I have about $1500

UTG limps. I look at 2c3c and see aces, so bump it up to $40. Call, call, call, call, making it 5 way to the flop.

Flop ($200): Ad2d2h

check, check, check, check, check. I thought at least one person had an ace and would bet the flop. Dang.

Turn: Qs

check, me bet $110, call, fold, call, call.

River ($640): Jc

check, me check, bet $500, call $500, fold, and me... call.

The Hijack instamucks his failed bluff. The button states he can't beat a 2. I show my 2 and scoop a $2k+ pot. :-)
