30/60 Halftime adjustments

[J_V]

My main opponent in the hand is on the button. Ive played with him many a time. He's a thinking, aggressive player. I'm not sure if he wins or not. He's been around a while, so he probably does ok. I'd put him in the usual category for this game...aggressive raising standards, probably too aggressive, loves pounding from late position. He actually was on tilt at this time although I didn't know it. I was playing multiple games and I wasn't privy to this yet. At the time, I had only gathered that he was playing more hands than normal.

EP/MP raises early. I don't know the guy, so I'll just assumed, slightly looser than normal standards. Button cold calls. I have black AA. I 3-bet. Both call.

Flop comes a healthy 9-7-2 with 2 hearts. My roommate is watching and asks me, "Is this is gonna be a 1000 dollar pot." I tell him, "only if i lose," and we both get a good laugh. Anyway, the action goes I bet, call call.

Turn is a ragamuffin. I bet..EP folds his drawing dead crap and Button calls.

Now here's what I know, the button could easily have a pair (probably does), he knows I have a strong hand but also that his pair is good. He's not gonna give me excessive action with one pair, because I'm just too likely to have one pair beat. The button also could be on a hand like J-10 and maybe even a flush draw. But I don't put anyone on a flush draw ever. Why? Cause they never have it.

Either way, I am gonna try and screwplay the river. If you can't find this screwplay, you're not trying. This one's setting up well. Might as well be teeball. Anyway, I'm all set to c/r the river when the last card is...

10h completing the flush. Do you still try to land the screw?

I made a halftime adjustment and bet it out, got raised...and called. The dude had 10-9. Good for him. I wonder if I woulda lost 3 my way? I could always fold if he three bet.......eh, F@#$ that. I'll leave that to the West Coast boys, we don't play that way in the Midwest.

Tilt? Not just yet, I just picked up (Ac-2c)-5c in stud8, I've got some gambling to do. We'll talk tilt after this hand.
