Default Weekend Happy Thread 2.0

We had a happy thread last weekend. Alot of it was brag and "see how the donkeys run." But, there was some content within the thread as well. It mainly showed the advantages of playing big hands fast. Many of the hands will be basic, and not worthy of a thread by themselves; but, what many find basic, a few might find profound. And so, back for a limited engagement, here is this weekend's happy thread.

Within this thread, post hands you think you played well and where you WON a big pot. Stackings are preferred, but if you take at least 80 bb's off your villians, that qualifies. Only post hands played from now til Sunday night. Bonus Sklansky bucks for anyone who pulls off a successful b3b AI with a big draw. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Only post converted hands and remember to post results. If you're smart enough to take the results out of white so they show without highlighting, that would be nice.

I'll start with a hand I just played. My read is that I am ahead of his range, and that he can't fold a Q here, nor JJ/TT type hands (seriously), that he'll put me on a draw if I push. I was ahead of his range, just not ahead of his particular hand. Fortunately, my luckbox works goot sometimes.

opponent has been crazy tilty aggro versus me, he has pushed over the top of 1 of my HU SB/BB PFRs and has donked like 4 flops into me. well now this is happening. he stacked off RIGHT when I sat down (to someone else) he had AA the other guy had AKs and flushed the river (all in pf) so he was MAD steaming.
