Early Morning Ramblings after a Good Online Session

blah blah blah...

I played a lot longer tonight than I wanted to, but here's why:

won't lay down QQ on AK flop with max heat
capable of river raise bluff w/nothing
4 bet A9s BB
cap OOP light
3 bet J7s
weird turn 3 bets

Those are my notes on this opponent on two of my 15/30 6max tables. For those of you who know the HUD, he was a 53.6/48.5/2.67 (thats voluntarily put $ in pot, pre-flop raise %, and total aggression factor). I got into one of those moods that happens every once in a while where I'm stuck in a game that so good that I just say, "I'm not moving until I'm up x amount." Anyways, this amount was over 1k, and I just quit at 6:30am Montana time up $1500 for the day. Nice. This is the first four digit win that I've had since that day way back in the first week of the five diamond last month. Wow... that's a long time.

Due to popular demand I am bringing back the quote of the day. Today's: "Why'd you quit doing the quote of the day?!?" - Nick Reget on the quote of the day laziness. OK... that was lame, I know. Unfortunately the real one involved fellatio and cunnlingus and isn't appropriate for the general forum. Hehe...

Played an interesting hand yesterday. Battle of the blinds with a guy that I have a LONG history with, going back to my propping on True Poker days last winter. 15/30 6max, he opens SB, I 3 bet K K from the BB. He calls. It comes 9 7 4 . He bets, I raise, he 3 bets, I call. Turn a blank. He bets, I raise, he calls. River comes A , he bets. Now, on the flop I put him on the A9 and had it further confirmed with the turn action. He doesn't pound draws too hard heads-up, and never like that. Also i've never caught him bluffing a busted draw in this spot, but he is a good player and is capable of realizing my range (TT-AA, 99, 77, 44) and how scary that river card is to most of the likely hands. So, there's 11 big bets in the pot and it costs me one to look him up, but I am almost certain he has A9, but is online. Easy call, marginal call, or marginal fold? Post thoughts in the comments.

Heading back to Vegas on Tuesday. Until then I'll enjoy Montana.

Peace and good luck y'all.
