He's either limping a monster or spite calling with an A enough of the time that I really don't like the play.

Even the worst players wont limp a monster in LP - I take this pot preflop 70-80% of the time.

3825 at second break. What an odd, odd, hour.

I'll recap because I pretend you care.

Started hour at 1795.

10:17 - Lost about 350 chips calling a huge raise PF with AK and then folding to an all-in. Showed AA/QQ.

10:21 - Jumped back up to 1700 taking down the pot on the flop with JJ after calling a raise PF.

10:23 - Doubled up to 3400 after flopping a set with QQ against AA. QQ will be a recurring factor it seems.

10:30 - Drop to 2550 after a terrible play with 44. Wasn't paying attention to stack sizes and called a minraise when a shorty was almost destined to push after limping. I didn't hit a set and had to fold after investing 25% of my stack PF. Dumb dumb dumb.

10:36 - Raise 3BB with QQ in EP. Call a reraise/call from the blinds. Flop top set. Stack the caller. Rejoice. Up to 4650 now!

10:38 - Jump up to 5000 after calling a big EP raise with AK and taking it away from him on a 4-heart board. I don't have a heart. Pun intended. (I know, not that funny. I'm not a great writer [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img])

10:44 - Complete in the SB with Q6o after a limper. Flop top and bottom and take it down. Back up to 5000 after raising and backing down from pressure on earlier hands.

10:47 - Blinds 75/150. Raise to 400 with TT and call 525 more from a guy in the blinds. Fold to his bet on a Q-high flop. Down to 3500 now.

10:52 - Raise to 400 with KQs. Shorty pushes for 900 more. I call and don't hit on his QQ. Guess it's ladies night. Down to 1500.

10:55 - Didn't work the first time. Let's give it another go. Push with KQs in the BB after two limpers. They fold. I build to 1900.

10:56 - "Ladies love me" Round 3. I push after a big stack raises with QQ. He calls and his AQs doesn't hit. Double up to 3800.

10:57 - And as good as I've been with QQ, I've been bad with 44. Drop another 600 chips after calling a raise. Implied odds my ass. I'm getting a beating here. Down to 3200.

11:00 - How fitting. CO raises to 400 at 75/150. I shove in the SB with...take a wild guess. He folds. I jump back up to 3900.


Anyways, I've never had so much action in one hour. I usually play the "fold until I get a monster and push push push" game. It's not as fun as it sounds. This was much better, but I also got some excellent cards.


Currently, I'm sitting at 3173 at 150/300. I'll probably just fold into the money like a pansy as usual. GL everyone!

So let's say 70%. 70% of the time you have 2000 chips. 21% of the time you're out, and 9% of the time you double up to 3500 or so.

Eh, I still don't like it. Different playing styles I guess.

Pwnage.

Couple reasons for my push.

1. Felt SO much like a steal on the flop. I guess it could have been an enticing bet with something like KQ or so. But given our stacks, I think he stabs at this pot 90% of the time whether he has anything or not.

2. My stack. I have 10BB and we're nearing the bubble. I want him to think that I'm not ready to put all my chips at risk without a monster. I'm really curious if he calls if Ms. AA doesn't push in.

So, we like?

I have really big cajones

edit: [ nevermind- you have big cajones too] - sucking out is KEY!

QQ again. That makes 5 times this tourney. Just got the blinds this time.

Oh, pokerstudAA. I'm outdrawed in case you didn't pick up on that. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

[kyro]

Bubble time. Up to 13000. Had the awesome 72d hand and then doubled up again against a loosey-goosey with AQ against his QJ on an AQ6 flop.

[pokerstudAA]

got 9600 and am folding in to the money. blinds real big
