tequila and/or jager makes me feel that way a lot. moderation is the key.

as for the hand, I think three betting the river is excessive, but up to that point I like your play. AA/QQ are unlikely for many players, AQ probably plays this way but you never know...some players three bet it PF. either way, if he does have AQ he probably thinks he pwned your AK. I can't put him on AA/QQ enough to not play the flop and turn the way you did.

also there's no flush draw like KTs for him to be pumping on the flop.

anyways when he raises your river bet I would just call. the fact that you can't be capped and it's just 3/4 of a big bet more means it doesnt matter as much, but I think you are beaten too often here to 3 bet unless this dude is a nut

He didn't have QQ, AQ or AA... To be accurate, he had Q7o.......

That also made me sick... I did overbet it but the opponent only had better second pair.... sucks. I think I was tilting in this one - should I have left in time ?

Um. You way overplayed this hand.

DMBFan23 · #5 08-01-2005, 05:02 PM

on which street? you c/call the river?

RunDownHouse · #6 08-01-2005, 05:04 PM

The turn and river. I was referring to the second hand, btw. The first is fine.

DMBFan23 · #7 08-01-2005, 05:04 PM

oh. crap. nevermind.

Tropex · #8 08-01-2005, 05:20 PM

Yea noticed but they would've capped 100% to the river, should I have folded when action got heavy ?

Tropex · #9 08-01-2005, 05:24 PM

Also, I am not quite sure, but I've had a ROLLERCOASTER day. I mean first I start by going down about 45x BB (is that a lot btw), then got up to +3x BB, then came these hands and after that, turn or river set or runner runner flush for the opponent after another and another. I'm sure we've all been there. Just one of those days - Soo my question is

How big swings can I expect to see in these limits ? I might've been tilting a bit today though so the 50x BB I went down is probably partly that, but is this a lot, moderate or little ? (I'm quite new to $1/$2 and $100 feels like hell lot...)
