Ouch! Not really a bad beat but this hand would have more than doubled my profit for the session. I still ran crazy good overall and finished 900+ hands playing 6 tables at a ridiculous 27.5 BB/100 but my All in Adj was 52.76 BB/100. I got a little out of line and played this hand super fast but V literally played 10 hands in a row and raised 3 and three bet one. I really felt like I had the fish on the hook even though it was only 10 hands in. Got it in as an 80% favorite for a 300+ BB pot so I guess I shouldn't be results oriented.

Hello there dear friend c0rnBr34d, good to see you are playing 10 NLHE! Shall we take a look on this hand?
The Preflop Action
I like the size of your 3-bet here, because allow us to have a 3-bet range for
bluff. Ever since we will get many combos of AK, AQ, AJ, AT, A9, A8, KQ, KJ, KT, QJ, QT, you name it, the smaller sized 3-bet would work more and we can control a little more of the SPR postflop, for not to be commited with 100% 3-betting range. This is positive side.
I see many regulars varying their opening raises and 3-bets for smaller sizes when they perceive that they need to start to 3-bet for bluff, but even so with a logic and strong range for the micros.
The Postlfop
The Flop
We really crushed this flop. And you send a hammer of nearly 100% pot and Villain mini-raises? Sweet or what?
I don't know if I dare to say it but against this type of player we are going in no matter what. We don't expect a "Tom Dwan" to be sitting at 10 NLHE, to be all creative and raising and 3-betting 100% range (perceived range).
However, we expect that this Villain is just out of line. We must punish it for try to bluff on every single spot and I can't see a better flop than this where, no matter what if Villain has or hasn't anything we have pretty good
equity against all of its non-sense range, for example:
Case 1: Villain already has a flush with, whatever,
Qd9d for example, or worst, Villain has K7, K4, KT, or even better, Villain could have some spaz made flush with Qd9d plus K7, K4, K9, KT and we look down to Hero's equity and it has 65.76% equity against this range. Awesome!
Case 2: Villan already has made hands that we don't expect it to have very much (it is not the case but good for range illustration) KK, 44 and TT, but in the case it has we still have pretty decent 30.65% equity. Great!
Case 3: Villain has no flushes/draws, straight/draws, but it has only the off-suited combos of KT, K9, K7 and K4, on which on a flop like this we have smashed with 76% equity or more. Fish on the hook!
I think you played this hand as best as possible versus this kindda a player. No matter what it had or hadn't it is very profitable going in slightly deep stacked versus a tilted one or aggro donkey spaz.
In the worst case scenario (case 2) we still have 30% equity to hit turn river and when you go all in, only a mad one would be calling with second nut flushes, dominated top pairs, sets, anything at all. If the guy is calling you here with sets on a deep stacked pot good for him/her, because given preflop line and 100% c-bet flop you are only representing the nut flush, which Villain never has.
These case are the worst possible cases! We really believe that this type of Villain can shows and bluffs with absolute air.
