Out of the red...

Just put in a $225+ session in about 900+ hands, to bring me $100+ in the green for the month! Boo yah! Most of the hands I won were from opponents river bluffing and flopped / turned sets. Here are some interesting hands of the session:

Standard set vs. AA (super TAG) vs. TP (donkey):

UTG: $10.79
Hero (UTG+1): $74.49
UTG+2: $31.86
MP1: $21.29
MP2: $25.68

Pre Flop: ($0.35) Hero is UTG+1 with 5d 5c
1 fold, Hero calls $0.25, 2 folds, MP2 raises to $1, 2 folds, SB calls $0.90, 1 fold, Hero calls $0.75

Flop: ($3.25) 5h Qd 3d (3 players)
SB checks, Hero checks, MP2 bets $2, SB raises to $4, Hero raises to $15, MP2 raises to $24.68 all in, SB calls $7.54 all in, Hero calls $9.68

Turn: ($64.15) 6c (3 players - 2 are all in)

River: ($64.15) 9c (3 players - 2 are all in)

Final Pot: $64.15
SB shows Qc 9s (two pair, Queens and Nines)
Hero shows 5d 5c (three of a kind, Fives)
MP2 shows As Ad (a pair of Aces)
Hero wins $25.17
Hero wins $35.98
(Rake: $3.00)

Villian is SUPER tight here, so I'm afraid that he/she has flopped a set of Queens, based on the the turn HUGE bet. I don't know if I should have called this, but I made the call FTW (for the win) and it held:

BB: $25.00
UTG: $6.79
UTG+1: $9.49
MP1: $5.00
MP2: $28.86
CO: $5.00
BTN: $40.08
Hero (SB): $32.52

Pre Flop: ($0.35) Hero is SB with Ac As
UTG calls $0.25, 4 folds, BTN raises to $1.25, Hero raises to $3, 2 folds, BTN calls $1.75

Flop: ($6.50) Qh 7h 2s (2 players)

Turn: ($24.00) 7d (2 players)
Hero checks, BTN bets $11, Hero raises to $20.77 all in, BTN calls $9.77
So this is one of those way ahead, way behind situations. Calling does nothing here. Either I'm all in, or I'm folding. I thought about this long & hard. He raised a LOT on the flop, and he's continuing the press on the turn. Either AQ, QQ or KK given the PF action. This is a guy who would be folding all other lesser holdings - OR AT LEAST I THOUGHT SO...

River: ($65.54) Jd (2 players - 1 is all in)

Final Pot: $65.54
BTN shows Jh Th (two pair, Jacks and Sevens) - WOW! I misjudged this guy! Stacking off with a flush draw and one card to go? Hmm...
Hero shows Ac As (two pair, Aces and Sevens)
Hero wins $62.54
(Rake: $3.00)

Loose call vs. tightish player results in a flopped straight vs. AA:

3 barrell bluffer holding AQo vs. my 33:

BTN: $31.52
SB: $10.64
Hero (BB): $20.00
UTG: $25.89
UTG+1: $5.35
MP: $13.44
CO: $44.30

Pre Flop: ($0.35) Hero is BB with 3d 3h
2 folds, MP raises to $0.85, 3 folds, Hero calls $0.60

Flop: ($1.80) 2c 5c 4h (2 players)
Hero checks, MP bets $1.80, Hero calls $1.80
Drawing to the straight, plus an Ace will get him all in, no doubt.

Turn: ($5.40) 8h (2 players)
Hero checks, MP bets $5.40, Hero calls $5.40
He's still pressing, with no overcards; what is he pressing so hard for?

River: ($16.20) Js (2 players)
Hero checks, MP bets $5.39 all in, Hero calls $5.39
I've reached the point of no return, here, so I make the additional all-in call - if he had a hand, he'd likely be checking here because he has no idea where he is in the hand.

Final Pot: $26.98
Hero shows 3d 3h (a pair of Threes)
MP shows Ah Qd (Ace Queen high)
Hero wins $25.64
(Rake: $1.34)

And two quick mishaps for my detractor's pleasure:

Turn: ($14.50) Qd (4 players)
Hero bets $5, UTG+2 folds, MP2 calls $5, BTN raises to $6.94 all in, Hero calls $1.94, MP2 calls $1.94
Continue to represent the check / raise set or QQQ.

River: ($35.32) 4d (3 players - 1 is all in)
Hero checks, MP2 checks
LOL - He checks Queens full on the river? I'm not calling no matter, but LOL! I love checked nuts!

Final Pot: $35.32
MP2 shows Qh Td (a full house, Queens full of Fours)
BTN shows Qc Ah (a full house, Queens full of Fours)
Hero mucks Jh 8h
MP2 wins $0.00
BTN wins $0.00
(Rake: $35.32)

And finally, this doozie. Fourth hand in for this guy; no history:

BB: $5.00
Hero (UTG): $107.64
UTG+1: $9.84
UTG+2: $13.55
MP1: $41.00

MP2 posts a big blind ($0.25)

Pre Flop: ($0.60) Hero is UTG with Qc Qd
Hero raises to $1, 1 fold, UTG+2 calls $1, 3 folds, BTN calls $1, SB raises to $6, 1 fold, Hero calls $5, 2 folds

Flop: ($14.50) 6d Ah 4c (2 players)
SB bets $10, Hero raises to $101.64 all in, SB calls $9 all in
What is he betting 2/3 pot here? That is what screwed me up for the hand. I would think he wants me to hit my hand - does he think I have 53 or 75 with the PF action?

Turn: ($52.50) Kh (2 players - 2 are all in)

River: ($52.50) Qs (2 players - 2 are all in)
LOL - I hit my set on the river. Useless!

Final Pot: $52.50
SB shows Ad Ac (three of a kind, Aces)
Hero shows Qc Qd (three of a kind, Queens)
SB wins $49.88
(Rake: $2.62)
