Weekend Happy Thread XVI: That Friday Feeling

Jamougha · #1 08-18-2006, 03:53 PM

"N00bs and rubes, NL is a game where we can be playing for stacks on any given hand. You should find within this thread various methods of getting your stack in the middle. Open to all, post your awesomeness here. Enjoy!

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."

Normally stay out of these threads because I suck at stacking people but I got one today [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

How many times do you guys stack your opponents? It is really rare for me (about once every 500 hands or so).

I'm pretty sure this guy was just tired of me running the table over. I'd been sitting for about 15 minutes and was on a nice heater, playing very aggressively and taking down lots of pots with CBs and re-raises PF. This is gonna be a good weekend [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

This is a nice reminder (to me, especially, after I've had problems) that we don't fold KK preflop at these levels.

My last three KK AI preflops have been done in by aces, but I'll keep pushing.

I'm on the button vs a predictable tight opponent.
I tell him he's beat but he's a non-believer with overs, so I jam the turn.
