I saw this hand played last night in a 40/80 game by one of the regulars in the game.

Hero comes into game and raises AK in EP on his second orbit. Fishy BB calls.

Flop Q33 two clubs
BB checks, hero checks

Turn: 8
check/check

River: K
check/check

BB tables K9, hero wins with AK having maximized value.

Live 10/20 I haven't played many hands and decide to mix it up by raising 7h6h after 2 limps. 3 or 4 players decide to take a flop. J43 no heart. 2 checks I bet 3 calls, turn 4 I bet 1 caller seated to my immediate left. River brings a K I look left to see if I should fire 1 more time but decide to give up. He checks, I almost say "you got it", I almost instamuck, but decide to table my lagginess and you guessed it MHIG.

So far September is a lot more to my liking than August.

NO.

Hit my first bad beat jackpot tonight, except for it being in 20 game where there is no bbj. And yes I had the losing hand.

Hero has AA
capped 3 ways pf

flop A Q 7

2 bets 3 ways

Turn Q

6 bets 2 ways

river 4

2 bets 2 ways.

I get the silver metal.

Pick up AA again 3 hands later the old old old man in the 5 seat calls 2 cold twice on the flop of KTx with AJ and hits his gutter ball on the river. Grand total of 3 outs in 2 hands (UTG says she folded QQ on the turn)

bout 7 hours later I pick up the blinds with AA.

an hour after that AA snapped of with another gutterball on the river, 74o this time.

Played with Howard Beale for a few hours and we both won a total of about 4 hands in 2-3 hours.

After all of this I end up winning 2 racks in 10 hours to put me down only $200 this month after having my best month ever in August.

I wanted to talk to you about that hand. The guy who beat you w/ the quads plays very conservatively even though his starting hand requirements won't impress many people on here. If he goes more than 3-bets at any time he's got the nuts.

Ya I know and there were a few reasons why I put in 8 bets. They may have not been good enough reasons but at the time thats what came to mind.

REASONS FOR LOSING 8 BETS:

1. I have aces full.

2. he has lost about 3 racks of chip in the last orbit.

3. If he shows me AQ after I stop raising- killing some one is an option.

4. One time I saw PQX a good high limit player almost fold in the exact situation. And I remember thinking I would never fold there unless they showed me their hand.

5. How often do you have aces full right? I mean does it really matter if I go 5-6-7-8 bets here?

5. I HAVE ACES FULL GOD DAMNIT!!!

Another proof of the certitude of the verbal tell 'You RAISED?!? I RAISE!'

Bunch of limpers w/ me in late position holding 2 9's.

Flop:

A-J-9. Ugly details omitted.

On the river I get that remark as yet another bet goes in and I know I'm holding a losing hand but it was waaaayyyyy too late to fold for 1 more bet. Yep, I get shown the pocket Aces.
