here's another one i think i misplayed. im in the straddle with AcKs. utg is a bluffy lag who likes to make moves. he opens for 60. the cutoff calls. i make it 260. they both call.

flop(780)QcQh8c
checks around

turn Tc
i bet 320
utg raises to 1000
co folds
i jam for 2100, raising him 1100 more

Yeah that second one seems truly awful.

Edit, to elaborate:

If UTG likes to make moves he could have done so on the flop. If he's any good he's leading out his real hands there as well.
He can't be semibluffing with the Ac.
On the turn there's no evidence for him that CO didn't flop or turn a big hand so him raising half his stack seems a touch on the risky side.
The pricing makes it a shrug call for him a lot of the time even if he thinks you have a hand.

Pretty much seems like you got paranoid and ignored a lot of fundamental stuff about the hand. What did he show up with?

Why do I get the feeling the bigger game is going to be really good?

Right off the bat this session I got 3 pocket pairs so, since I was bored I decided to log all the pocket pairs I got.

99, 66, 55, 22, 88, 22, qq, 88, 88, 99, aa, 77, 22, 77, tt, aa, 33, kk, 22, aa, jj, 55, 22, 33, 44, 44, kk.

Not a single set but I did get paid on my big ones a few times.

some guy was ranting about how everything in the casino was rigged. Not just the odds are with them rigged but how they magnetize dice and have dealers that can manipulate cards.

So, the dealer hand shuffled one hand and this guy sat out because he was sure the dealer was going to do something bad to him.

Started down 1300 and cursed filthy for the runbad he secretly wished upon me. Proceeded to win 2300 for a +1k session.

Also, I'm in NY tonight and tomorrow. Is there any underground place to play post-fight that I would be able to get into?

plan was to play 3/5 unless the bigger game was really good...... 5/10/20 was 3 handed, 2 pros and a winning reg. 3/5 was a bunch of brain dead mouth breathers. ldo i jump in the 5/10/20. at the end of the night i felted the table. i lost 2500 on the session. my best session in a while.

i gotta stop playing so dam bad. it would help if i ran decent at least.

What is your deal filthy? Did you make money in online poker during the boom? Have money via some other means?

Seems like you're in over your head atm. Real talk.
