Default Re: USP Hand History 1-18

Yeah. I planned on writing up my thoughts on all of the hands, but I guess I'll do this one now.

I'm pretty sure that going in, Apathy thought I was pretty weak, so I was expecting to get played back at a few times. In hand 21, he repopped my button raise and I was pretty sure I mucked the best hand. So going into this hand, I knew he was likely to be reraising me light. The problem is that our stacks were such that I couldn't put in the 3rd bet without basically shoving. By making such an awkward overbet shove, it would basically turn my AQ into garbage unless he's drunk enough to call off with AT or whatever. And given what I thought his read on me was, I didn't think he'd put me on a play or whatever, so I think his calling range on my shove there is really tight. I was ready to stack off on favorable flops, but I just didn't think putting in the 3rd raise had a ton of merit. But yeah, it was definitely the hand I had the most trouble with.
