Weekend Happy Thread 8: dbitel's diary

ajmargarine · #1 06-23-2006, 04:10 PM

If you hadn't noticed, it's the weekend. If you haven't noticed previous happy threads, db pretty much pwns them all, and so these threads turn into his personal blog or diary; hence this week's subtitle. [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

Read up folks. There were some real decent hands in the last happy thread. Learn to stack and stop going so much for "value." I'm going to play alot this weekend and hopefully will fill this thread with some tricky/trappy creamy goodness.

Here's da rules.

Requirements for posting hands in this thread:

1. Hero believes he played the hand well.
2. HERO MUST WIN AT LEAST 80 bb's.
3. Post only converted hands and remember to post results.
4. It's also very nice of you if you can take the results out of white, so we don't have to highlight to see them.
5. If it's not obvious why you played the hand the way you did, give a quick reasoning.

So, if you play a hand that qualifies over the weekend, post it here and share the joy.

Per usual, I'll start:

Not sure if I played it well, but it definitively made me happy [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img].
Pfr with this hand is something I only do very occasionally. The turn I was afraid of JT of course, especially after the c/r. There's no way that he puts me on the straight though, so he could easily have a set, top pair or a semibluff. That he only had 3 outs to a tie after he called was a nice bonus.

Nothing fancy here. Pretty much textbook.

Still, I've been running so cold for the last week I'm making icebergs look sweltering. So this hand was a nice change.
