I wish I could sit out after this [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Usually proceede into dumping another couple BI to random people. But thigs got better, before it was not uncommon for me to go on a 10BI downswing after a couple good suckouts [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

[Chomp]

May the Lord strike me down if this is a word of a lie: These hands happened back-to-back against the same villain. The only thing that happened between Hand 1 and Hand 2 is that villain sat out, reloaded, posted blind dead and then came back to get hero.

Cliff notes are the bits in blue. Falling for it once, whatever. But falling for it twice in 2 minutes? Really.

Going over big-ish losses, and this is the only one Im not feeling great about... but I think it's defensible.

It is fine .. tho I'd be worried about aces actually !

(Edit: I wouldn't threebet KQ ... no way Jose)

[Manchild84]

No 3B w/ KQ? I hate calling in that spot, because you're kinda like, "OK.. where the eff am I on the flop?", but I guess since he called the 3B, Im kinda like that anyways, but with less cash in my proverbial pockets. And then I get raised.
Noted. No 3bing KQ.

[Gelford]

I dunno if you should note it .. it is just my opinion, there was a Samo post (back in the day, where he posted other stuff than diagf and HU4ROLLZ posts), where he and empiremaker where at eachothers throats over a hand, where EM2 3bet QJs from the blinds.

Samo argued that you don't want those kinds of hands, as you ... as you say ... dunno where you are when you hit tptk due to domination and rio issue.

So Samo argued that you should 3bet the good stuff and utter trash .. but none of those in between hands.

[Vyse]

And optimism leads to slippery slopes

I 3bet KQ all the time, and if I get into tricky spots post flop, whatever. I'll learn from it. At uNL they'll let you know readily enough if you are dominated, and since only one hand, for the most part, dominates you (AK is a lot more common than AQ because AK is one of the few hands donkvillains actually get aggressive with), you still have more hands YOU dominate and that extra TP value is worth it.
