Here are a couple of hands that I played last night, where I wasn’t very happy with my play. It must have been the TV show that I was watching. Typical 5/10 PP that was moderate on both the tightness and aggressiveness scales. Flame away folks.
Hand 1
I open raise UTG+1 with J /forums/images/icons/heart.gif J /forums/images/icons/diamond.gif , only CO calls. This is the 1st time I’ve played with CO, but so far he seems loose, (likes to play any A or any suited cards) and is fairly aggressive.
Flop is J /forums/images/icons/spade.gif 7 /forums/images/icons/diamond.gif 7 /forums/images/icons/club.gif /forums/images/icons/smile.gif – I bet, CO raises, I call, intending to checkraise the turn. Many times I would 3 bet here, but with no draws on the board, I don’t see this as a raise for a free card.
Turn is K /forums/images/icons/club.gif – I check, as planned, of course CO checks too. Damn.
River is 8 /forums/images/icons/diamond.gif – I Bet, he calls.
Hand 2
We are 9 handed here, I look down to see A /forums/images/icons/spade.gif J /forums/images/icons/heart.gif in the CO. UTG+1 limps, UTG+1 is a pretty decent player, but he has shown down some strange hands before and has limped from EP with some weak hands, I raise, BB and UTG+1 call.
Flop is T /forums/images/icons/heart.gif 8 /forums/images/icons/heart.gif 6 /forums/images/icons/spade.gif –Lot’s of draws here. BB checks, UTG+1 bets, I raise, BB folds, UTG+1 calls.
Turn is 4 /forums/images/icons/diamond.gif – Shoot, I have promised to not get too aggressive with big A’s that miss. We both check.
River is K /forums/images/icons/club.gif – UTG+1 checks, Hmm…, I bet (please fold your busted draw), he calls /forums/images/icons/frown.gif .
