Cash game report

I am uber proud of myself. i feel like i passed a bridge in my career.


so the game was hot, i bought in for 400, had about 400 when a few hands in a row happened

i had 6h 8h in the sb folded to me, i raised the big blind to 6. bb called. flop


9c 3s 7h


i bet 7, get a call, turn

10c


bingo

i check

bb checks

river

2d


i love my hand, theres about 25 bucks in the pot, and i decide to check

he bets 12 bucks. this is what i was waiting for, the big blind is a station, who always thinks i am bluffing. so his stationness is doubled when im paying. i make it 90, he insta calls and mucks his hand.


he starts screaming at me "you suck man, your so lucky"

now i could have explained to him that the only time he put in a bet was when he was behind but i decided to keep it to myself. i beat him a few more hands, and he beat me some, then it came down to this


im bb, were 5 handed. 2 people limp, i make it 10 total with Kh 8h. what im looking for is tilty bb to call and others to fold. i get exactly that, dream flop

8d Ad 8c


i bet 25, about the pot. dan has 240 left and i have him covered. the reason for this bet is, he can either think im bluffing, or have an ace, or have a draw, and all of that hell play strongly, i really wanna get all the money in right here. no point in letting cards come off. he makes it 70, perfect

im all in.....

he instantly calls me and shows

Js 8s


turn card

Jc

river blanks

now this guy, the entire time, berates me, gives me shit, calls me names...

and i show incredibly maturity, counting out my chips as if i was supposed to lose that pot. gave it to him


he states

"that was a bad beat"

and finally he says
"sorry about earlier (the hand i showed where i had a strait) , i made a set on the flop and i had a good board, thats why i was mad"


the game went on very friendly, i got down to 160 bucks, then this happened


i have 6s 7c, were 3 handed. button bets 8, im sb and call as well as the big blind.

flop Ad 8s 9c

i check, bb checks, button makes it 18 and i call, and bb raises 69 more. sb moves in

lets play math, as it turned out i had 130 bucks, and was sure bb was playing


24+63+69+69= 225, i got 130 in my stack, and i know dan is calling, but even if he doesnt, im still getting odds on the button player (barily)

so 225+69(mine) +60(his) +60(mine) = $414 is in the pot so it cost me 130 to win 284. meaning i have to be 31% or better, which i am...

now the kicker

dans 60 he will owe the pot if he calls (which im sure he is)

now its 130 to win 344 meaning i have to be 27% or better.

so i moved in. both players also got all in which i expected. and everything blanked, so that was the night for me. im still very happy how i handled myself when things went south.

thanks for reading
