once again my memory is hazey. like i could remember every hand if someone brought it up but i cant remember many to write about. i played kinda snug, but not tight as luke would say. tryed to pick my bluff spots better and not play too much junk.
i lost $100 in like 30mins at the start. i cant remember how. i think i 3bet AK in one and gave up after a cbet or got raised. oh i lost a descent one to micha. i 3bet his buton open from bb with AQ. he 4bet and i called cause the stacks were an awkward size. planned to hit the flop or go for a bluff. J24 or something and he cbet $20. i called thinking ill look strong and he will give up + i prob have best hand. turn he bets quite big basically all in. i was so sure he was full of shit but could have been bluffing even though he hit a tiny pair or something. i folded and said i have TT. he showed the air bluff of course :(
i stacked tim twice. on i raise utg w 99 and call his smallish 3bet. hit a set on 89J flush draw board and shove 80 more over his 20cbet to look like a draw. he called with KK. ppl discussed but i dont like the call. at best he is flipping with my shoving range (pair + straight or flush draw type hands) or crushed by 2 pair or sets.
soon after he is tilting quite obviously. raise and 4 callers and i bump it up big with AA in bb. tim calls from sb and check shoves a Qxx flop and i snap obviously and he has 88.
i did some descent bluffs but nothing *huge*. mostley against micha cause he was in every hand. me and luke got in no big hands, i did value bet him alot and dont think i bluffed him once cause he always calls me haha. o i actually did the best bluff, first 5bet bluff of the homegame. i had mentioned it and wanted to whip it out cause im the only person i seen 4bet bluff too (apart from micha tonight)so i must get action if i get a big pair some time soon. anyway. i raise utg with 89o, liam 3bets and micha calls. liam plays *tight* in comparison to the rest of the table but still his 3bet range is huge so im not worried about him at all. luke 4bets from sb and i think he is thinking the same way as me and going for an easy resteal (4bets still get respect haha unlike 3bets). so i think this is a great 5bet spot cause i can have a nice hand utg obviously. i bet $55. its perfect spot because im only risking $55 and if luke wants to play its for stacks (both $300 deep). furthermore he cant reasonably continue without AA or KK. he turns out to have a hand in JJ but has to fold.
i hit 2 more sets but it was against the biggest nit (amon). first i call his 3bets cutoff v button and flopped with TT on JTx. i think this missed him and he wont cbet cause it hits me so well so i donk out to induce some kind of spaz play. but he folds cause he never bluffs haha. then i flopped another one in the same situation but micha is in too. JTx and i have JJ. i check it back to him and he checks too. JTx9 so i have to bet so i just pot it, amon calls. blank river and same again...i pot it and he calls with AA. i kinda like how he played it. most others would stack off to me. he misses alot of value verse alot of my range though. amon is the pro but he never wins cause he is too nitty and misses alot of value and thinks ppl are bluffing him and makes some marginal river calls.
one interesting hand was i had TT in bb and call lukes open along with tim. 854 flop and i check to luke so he can try steal as he does on these flops. tim calls him so i repop it thinking im ahead of luke most likely but he will call me cause i look bluffy stealing tims weak call. luke calls and tim re-raises. this is a really weird move and i think he must have flopped a straight or set. would be the worst bluff cause most ppl in my spot would call i think. what did u think at the time luke?
i liked two of lukes hands very much. 3 streets of value with KT vs micha on a very coordinated low board. then fired flop and turn only to check raise river with 72 was mint.
as usual i start of the blog with no ideas and manage to write a bunch. up $190 for the night.
guna start playing some more after work, the thing i love about rush is its just sit down and go. no mucking around setting up tables. to get 8 good tables going can take me an hour usually. not worth it unless im going for a big session. hopefully i can keep winning at rush though lol. wana start pushing that br up!

Rush is for luck boxes, keep playing 25nl after work so we can build my br.
ReplyDeleteLukes c/r the river with 72 is brilliant. Gotta win that 50c.
Not a fan of Amons play with AA. Most of your range flops some kinda dirty gutshot on the JTx board, Amon can't give you free cards. His play does induce a lot of bluffs though.
I thought you had me beat. But wasnt so convinced tim had me. Its possible he had like 87, pair and gutshot type hand or the nuts. You made the pot 2 big. I wasnt going to call 2 more big barrels.
