Fun Hands

I've gone to the movies the last few days. I saw Angels and Demons last night. It was good, better than I expected. 7/10. Then tonight I saw Star Trek, based on numerous recommendations. It was very good, but maybe not as good as the amazingness other people said it would be. 8.5/10.

I've played a decent volume of hands in May, but I'm not playing really well. Tonight was a beacon of hope-- I played nearly flawlessly and finally had a good session. Here are the two biggest pots I played tonight-- the first is against a friend of mine and the second was against the "spot" at the table. After those hands is a graph of the month.

Enjoy.

lol @ hand 1 - at 25\50 when you flop a pair you just never fold it? what was your thought process?

gross graph, may the EV gods be with you

question about hand 1 though : SB is using relative pos. by leading into 3 others, do you think his most likely hand is a flushdraw or 77 22 given the depth of the stacks and as it's hard to make a hand you call ? Also on the river when UTG shoves when checked to, assuming he's a good 25/50 player shouldn't he know how bad of a card it is to bet on and thus not be bluffing as often (+ only halfpot) ?
Also are these the ante tables and what is your experience so far playing with antes if you have played any ?

play- Im guessing the guy who was leading for more than pot on both flop and turn was prob the fish, therefore it makes very little sense for Aej friend to overcall something on the flop and turn that he can also bet for value on the blank river vs 2 people, except for like 54hh, 56hh type thing. It also makes a lot of sense for him to flat his draws on the turn, since he prob has not much FE(if any) and hes getting good immediate odds

sick hand nonetheless. I think your turn call is a lot ballsier than your river call, but I suppose that depends highly on how fishy/bad the guy who is leading is

yeah, i was curious more about the turn call, would be interesting to hear Aaron's take on that

but it makes sense for utg to have sets too, dunno if he can have AA/KK on flop/turn, though

So why is it good for this guy to be bluffing the river in an all-in pot with king high?
