Congratulations. It takes a lot of nerve to tell your girlfriend you want to double up.

Of course, this is one of those situations where it's easier to double up if you start with a big stack.

I can't imagine what your opponents held, but I have a feeling I know what you ended up holding.

So, does nobody want to do some actual analysis on this hand? I think it's fairly interesting.

You could be up against any number of hands there. Its pretty hard to put a tricky SB on a range of cards here. I would guess he doesnt have a 4, as he would play it slower here. Other than that, he could have a heart draw and two overs to you, something like 910 of hearts. He could have A5, so 65, or 75 or something. The only hands you should be really worried about are 77, 88, very good dude could play them this way. A pure bluff isnt completely out of the question here, if he's trying to push you off perceived overs. I think given that he's a very good player you are ahead of his range of hands here.

I don't care about the hand, but I will say this:

You need to train your GF to not use sex as a bargaining chip for you to come home when you're out with your buddies.

Next time she did something like that, I'd say, "Thanks, but no thanks. You know it's my poker night. I'll see you when I get home."

Also, I'd call her when she's doing her spa day with her friends and tell her she should come home right away because you want to get laid.

Same thing, isn't it?
