Isnt it funny how playing a hand wrong on almost every street can pay off so handsomely?
After reading on the forum that in 6-max you could/should open raise with any suited connectors, I decided to try it out.
I did mostly everything wrong of course.
The table seemed very tight-scared, with three players with VP$IP under 20 (something I thought was impossible at this level).
Whenever I missed the flop, the continuation bet usually did the trick.
So I decided to open raise UTG with T8s.
And check my flopped trips.
And min-raise the turn with a flush draw on board.
And win a nice big pot.
And gloat like only a real donk can.
Villain was the most loose player at the table.
Just wish I could have seen his face at showdown.
LMAO as they say.
