Ive been playing fairly well the past couple of days so I decided to see what would happen with an opponent I had some HU history with. There are a couple of fun spots in here where I learned quite a bit about his game last time we played in 3 bet pots.

2nd hand of the match (always fun to start this way)

Full Tilt, $0.25/$0.50 NL Hold'em Cash Game, 2 Players

2nd fun hand. Thoughts at the end of this hand:

This will look so spazzy, but JT is a true position call against 80%+ of his 3 bet range. I know the pot is mine when he flats the flop raise. His range in most of these spots are 44-88 and cant call a turn shove. My c-bet% on the flop against this guy is ridiculously high, therefore he has shown a tendancy later in the match to only 3 bet suited connectors, gappers, and low to mid PP (up to TT)
He is almost never flatting an A against me on the flop (i suck at poker but i understand patterns well so just trust me that 4 out of 5 times this is a profitable play, obv very opponent specific) He will always raise an A or Q on the flop on that board texture, but more likely he will lead an amount closer to pot. If he bet an amount like $8.5 to $9 this hand is a fold.

Hand 3

This hand is interesting to me. Maybe not to you all, but I find it curious:

BTN: $111.30
Hero (BB): $83.55

Pre-Flop: T A dealt to Hero (BB)
BTN raises to $1.50, Hero calls $1

Flop: ($3) 2 5 8 (2 Players)
Hero checks, BTN bets $2.50, Hero raises to $7, BTN calls $4.50

Turn: ($17) 7 (2 Players)
Hero checks, BTN checks

River: ($17) 2 (2 Players)
Hero bets $8.95, BTN calls $8.95

Results: $34.90 Pot ($0.50 Rake)
BTN mucked T J and LOST (-$17.20 NET)
Hero showed T A and WON $34.40 (+$17.45 NET)


Flop I ch/raise, repping straight or flush draws, the turn completes both (If u cant see the suits its the 3rd spade, I have As) Given our history if he checks behind on turn, Im legit almost always ahead with A high and Spade redraw just in case. If he has a hand this opp. will ALWAYS value bet turn. The day he doesnt, I'll be fucked trying to figure out what he is up to for the next few hands. When I thinly bet the river, honestly I thought out loud his most likely holding was K6. I was wrong and wondering what the J high call was for

Hand 4

Like I said about hand 2, if its 8-9$, its a fold

Results: $25 Pot ($0.50 Rake)
BTN showed 3 4 and LOST (-$12.25 NET)
Hero showed K K and WON $24.50 (+$12.50 NET)


I missed value on the river badly, after he checks behind on turn. Just a mistake, as really think he may time down and call with a 4 putting me on QJ type hands.

K thats all for now Im tired of looking these up but there are a few more I may post tomorrow. GL everyone
