Weekend Happy Thread X: Runnin' Hot

ajmargarine · #1 07-07-2006, 03:30 PM

Friday, Oh my beautiful Friday. How about we seriously own the weekend? It's time for a bunch of SSNL'ers to run wickedly hot and double their bankrolls. [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img]

What is this thread? Well, it's become a tradition. It's a thread where you can post the hands you play this weekend where you win a stack or two and brag on yourself. Some of the hands are pretty straightforward: AA ai PF or stacking with sets. Sometimes though, there's a uniquely played hand where we can all learn a thing or two. So, have at it.

Requirements for posting hands in this thread:

1. Hero believes he played the hand well.
2. HERO MUST WIN AT LEAST 80 bb's.
3. Post only converted hands and remember to post results.
4. It's also very nice of you if you can take the results out of white, so we don't have to highlight to see them.
5. If it's not obvious why you played the hand the way you did, give a quick reasoning.

So, if you play a hand that qualifies over the weekend, post it here and share the joy. Weekend starts now and runs through Sunday night.

Per usual, I'll start with my latest stackage:

Villain is a maniac, and as soon as he smooth calls pf, i'm looking to get it all in.

Gooch: Don't forget results (villians hand) and I don't think that c/c'ing turn and river in hand 1 is the best way to get it in.

My favorite hand ever, maybe. Take a look at what Villain called the push with. PP NL 200, 6-max, 6-handed.

Reads: Villain is worst in history of poker. He won't fold AK until, well, never.

Preflop: Hero is BB with $218; all others cover except Villain on Button, the donkey with $200. Hero is dealt 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].

Three limps, Button raises to $5, SB folds, Hero calls, three others call.

Flop: ($26) 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

Hero checks, three others check, Villain bets $45, Hero pushes, three others fold, Villain calls.

Turn: Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

River: A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]

Villain shows A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], a pair of aces.

Hero wins $213.

because of your position (having to act immediately after the inevitable c-bet from the pf raiser, with the field yet to act), i don't like the pf call.

I was in the blinds; PF raiser was Button. And take a look at results; implied odds against this Villain are SICK.
