Bitches Di'int Know It Was My Birthday

Brag: ISS MAH BIRFDAY, as established in the title.
Beat: It's Monday.
Brag: There's a birthday package waiting from Mom.
Beat: If I don't pick it up by 5pm, I won't get a chance to until Wednesday.
Variance: I work an hour away from home. And birthdays w/o presents are like gutshot straights -- SOMETHING IMPORTANT IS MISSING.

So I charge home at 4pm, grab my present (thanks Mom), and get ready to go to the gym for a leg-busting session of the Rock Hard Challenge. HURRRRRR!!! But Alas! My exotic, ultrasexy girlfriend has been preparing me a birthday dinner! and you know what comes with birthday dinner.

BIRTHDAY SEX.

Therefore, the gym might not be the best idea...need mah legs. With the interest of the cook in mind, I decide instead to find some donkeys on the UB...and the GodSwitch was thrown on me. :D

----------------------------------------------------------------
The player had been Cbetting a decent amount prior, and I liked the 8 as a good card to bluff. when he called the turn, I figured he had a good Q, and so my river bet sizing was much too small when my 2 outer hit. lol. I am glad I bet out, as I don't think he would have bet the river with his hand after I C/Rd. My image is now SHIT.

this really pisses me off. right read, and awful card on the river. I can't bet again here. Look what he shows down. I stand by my river check, though, to be there is spewtastic...except maybe against this opponent. This was 20 hands in, and my first real hand with him, and I didn't have the stats I had by the end : 67 / 10 / 1.5 over 100 hands ( <3>

Then I get into another hand with the Villain from Hand #1. (33/7/1.7)

villain didn't strike me as particularly adept: 33 / 7 / 1.6 . saw him come to bat with 2nd best hand more than a few times early on.

Looking back at this hand, I kinda don't know what to think. His UTG minraise could mean a lot of things. He floats me, but he's capable of that on the flop. What I really think is shit is the CRAI on the turn. What could he possible have here that wouldn't want to see a river card and maybe extract another bet? Does he think I'm drawing (I RR'd him PF!!).

It basically looks to me like he doesn't want me to see the river? That's what I decide, and I think TP2K is good enough and call him...and he made a terrible play when his card hit. He SHOULD have raised me, but not all in. I can have AK too easily here, too often. I fold on the flop to a raise here as well, and check/fold the river when called on the turn. A pretty marginal spot, I think I'm only slightly ahead here in the long run.....

And then the villain from Hand #2 comes back: 67 / 10 / 1.5 over 100 hands

I note that in previous hands, he has shown down T7o and T6s, playing these hands for bluffs on all streets with multiple bets. definitely a loose cannon. No respect + large stack = high variance situation...

This was the 1st 3bet I'd seen from him, and it didn't seem especially large, so I decided I could see a flop. I hit a monster (for a 3bet pot). If he were a standard TAG, his range would be JJ+/AK+, but his range is way larger. Instead, I love my river shove, given that he's made no effort to protect a hand by this point. He tanked on the river and nearly timed out before calling. Book 'em, Dan-O.

I continue to play strictly ABC tag, and pick up ~7 pots in succession with Cbets/dbl barrels w/ no showdowns. Multitabling TAG villain shows up on my right. We have history, he's very aggressive (20/6.7/2)

wow QJ again. both players are around 35/10/1.2. I check in BB.

Really dangerous flop. I should be raising to isolate one player, but I'm greedy. This is not a board to be greedy on. Both players stay in.

crap turn. I can put V1 on a K, what is V2 minraising with? If it's a set or 2pr, I'm in serious trouble now. Especially when he calls me on the turn. That's pretty much what I put him on at this point, but I'm also representing a flush draw with my flop play (+huge stack +superaggressive postflop play).

I recognize that he's committed on the river (nearly 2/3s of stack), and think I'm better than a coinflip vs his equity. Shove it. Wow, awful minraise, man. Thanks.


wow. way to start being 29.
