PP $1/2 - Now I remember why I don\'t play online...
So, I buy in to the PP $1/2 game and I'm getting killed with a run of hole cards that I'd gladly take to the final table at the WSOP main event.
Anyway, here's a couple hands from later in the session - I forgot to grab hand histories from a couple others but these 2 pretty much say it all. These 2 hands were about 5 apart and all the players so far seem pretty reasonable. Nothing strange has happened that would make me think anyone I'm in a hand with at this point is out of line. I'm playing my usual tight and aggressive game, but not having much luck... Hand 1: I'm UTG+4 with TdTc. UTG +1 and +2 call and UTG +3 raises. I decide to bump it up here and knock the blinds out and get this thing shorthanded - hopefully 3 way or less. All fold to the original raiser who calls. It's heads up. *** FLOP *** : [ 8c 9c Js ] Not a bad flop for me - could be worse... UTG checks, I bet and he calls. *** TURN *** : [ 8c 9c Js ] [ Ac ] Didn't really want to see the Ace, but I can't slow down now if he checks to me?? He checks, I bet, he calls. *** RIVER *** : [ 8c 9c Js Ac ] [ 5c ] I'm not sure what to think at this point. I'm not sure what the guy is on here - I'm hoping he missed his draw and that he doesn't have any clubs higher than my Tc. He checks, I bet and he check-raises me. At this point I'm sure he has a bigger flush than me but make a crying call. Thoughts? Hand 2: Same table just a couple hands later...I'm on the button and get AdKd. 2 limpers to me and I raise. The blinds call as do the 2 limpers. 4 to see the flop. *** FLOP *** : [ Ac Kc Jd ] Not bad for me. blinds check to the UTG player who bets. I call as does UTG. The more I think about this - I should have raised here. I'm not sure why I didn't though. I was sure I had the best hand at the time - but for sure should have raised it here...ugh. *** TURN *** : [ Ac Kc Jd ] [ Qd ] Why do I play this game? Can my opponents possibly have any better draws against me when I flop 2 pair with big slick. I wanna see where I'm at here. BB checks, UTG bets and I raise. Both call. sheesh!!! *** RIVER *** : [ Ac Kc Jd Qd ] [ 9h ] BB checks, UTG bets, and I raise again here. Once again, not sure why - I guess I was just cranked that I had just played 2 hours and had been dealt starting hands we all dream about and hadn't won a single hand. I know I'm beat when they both call behind me... Flame away! |
