Hello all [or whomever peruses this site after several years of absence]! Been a long time - been playing on Global and BetOnline. Moreso BetOnline of late because it allows HUDs and I was running in place with the HUD-less Global. Not to say that there's no money to be made at that site; there definitely is! It just takes far more concentration.
Hand of the day is nothing really of consequence but more of a brag post of the villain spazzing out:
Not sure if you can see it, but I steal from the HJ with the powerful 52s. My opponent, who's been very verbal in the chat box, decides to 3bet me to 10BB. Mind you we're around 200BB to start the hand so we're pretty deep... SB & BB fold and I decide to flat and take a flop. Pretty easy hand to get away from if I miss. If I hit, I'm looking at knocking it out of the park given how big he talks in chat and his prior hands - he's complaining particularly about my lack of hand quality that shows down and wins (i.e. QT vs. his T8s, or his witnessed turned set of mine vs. my opponent's overpair...) He's seeing what he perceives as generally fishy play and in his mind he confirms it as he dumps his stack to me...
Anyway, back to the hand: I of course flop magic (would I be posting a folded 3bet pot on the flop otherwise :-) ???). I lead given his strong-ish 3bet and he decides to jack me to all in (WTF???? Couldn't you accomplish the same thing by just raising a normal amount and deciding from there???). Needless to say, by the end of the hand, all he's left with is and empty stack while muttering to himself... At least he'll have a good story!
