2021 Poker: Raising Covid with the nuts!

[TXSooner518 2438]

Triggered!! That is way too similar to my 2018 River bust in which we each got 150 bb in on the flop of J97 my 99 his AQ (no flush draw either just no pair no draw for 150 bigs in a $2500 bc why not) and it ran T-K.

[dirtonia 269]

Ouch, that’s a rough one.

In for $900 out for $3,850 tonight (I’m still up fuccc).

Sssshhheeeeeeessshhhhhhh.

Up in DC for work and went to mgm with a coworker who was drunk as fuck. 
 

they were running 5 card plo high only so that’s what we played. Coworker had not played plo before and wasn’t sure or coordinated enough to look at his cards with showing other people so it was a shit show. 
 

second hand I get AAQQ9 double suited with clubs and diamonds. I raise Preflop, get 5 callers and the 6the pots it to 95 and everyone calls. 
 

flop is j72 with a club. Someone goes all in for 150 and I’m getting about 6-1 so I call along with two others. 
 

turn is 4c and now I got a flush draw so I jam and two others call. River is a queen giving me the nuts of top set as there is no strait or flush possible and it’s a scoop for around $1400. 
 

I play a few rounds but don’t feel like getting banned from mgm by his actions so I tell my coworker we’re leaving. He ends up hitting quad kings and had one other memorable hand. 
 

he had KK and a few clubs. Flop is QsJs7x. He bets out and a guy calls. Turn is KS and he jams. Other guy asks wtf are you doing I have the As and shows it along with the 10 of diamonds for a strait. Coworker slams his cards down and says “I have a boat” other guy is steaming and says “you don’t have a boat you dumbass”, coworker “oh, I meant flush “, other guy “you don’t have one of those either you have clubs in your hand”

at that point I had to get up and leave and told him to get up too. He says one more hand, I go cash out and he of course wins that hand too and comes over to cash up, with a nifty $250 profit after being drunk as fuck and not having any idea what was going on.

I’ve played at that MGM in DC a few times. They started out downstairs and then moved to a bigger and nicer space upstairs. Haven’t been in awhile but think they were setting up for a cool sports bar area next to it.

[dirtonia 269]

Saturday in for $1500, out for $532. Womp womp womp.

Tonight in for $500, out for $980.

Wife is back tomorrow, so pokerthon is over for now.

There's a nice bar and the horseracing stuff is next to it. No signs of a sports bar but I may have missed it.

Damn. Bet there will be a shit ton of whales

[chitwood 155]

All in preflop for $700 pot. I’ll let you guess what the river card was.

Was watching the TCH Live stream last night and saw this interesting hand:

Guy opens 6-6, Bart Hanson three-bets K-K, button calls and original raiser decides to set mine.

Flop is 6 of spades, T of clubs, K of clubs. Check, Bart bets about 1/3 pot, button folds, and there's a check-raise to 3.5x. Pot is now $1,100, and effective stacks are $7,100.

Bart just calls. What's the theory on just calling on such a wet board? Bart has the nuts, and it seems to me there are lots of worse hands that are calling a raise there. 6-6, T-T, K-T, flush draws, and straight draws. Worst-case scenario is the guy has Q-J of clubs, and you're 60/40 against that.

A club came on the turn and it killed the action.

Here's the video:

I’m comfortable both ways. By not 4betting he induces a bet from opponent on (non-scary) turn. Definitely missed out here though

[TXSooner518 2438]

Agree w Lurch. It sucks when an action killer peels, but you have to play against their whole range. When Bart 3b, he's really narrowing his range to KK, TT, and two broadway clubs. Part of it is a function of being so deep. If you are less deep, that widens both ranges some. But when you are announcing "I'm cool getting over 1000 bigs in on this flop" that is gonna be pretty damn narrow. 

It's also opponent driven. If your opponent overbluffs or if they are one of those people who bet-bet-bet unless there is a raise, he should def be just flatting the c/r and allowing opp to barrel his barrels, whether they are bluffs or value.
