$0.25/$0.50 No Limit Hold'em Cash, 7 Players
MP1: $14 (28 bb)
MP2: $48.75 (97.5 bb)
MP3: $48.85 (97.7 bb)
CO: $47.45 (94.9 bb)
Hero (BTN): $63.20 (126.4 bb)
SB: $50.45 (100.9 bb)
BB: $52.69 (105.4 bb)
Preflop: Hero is BTN with Q
T
4 folds, Hero raises to $1.50, SB folds, BB raises to $4.50, Hero calls $3
3-bet is small, and we're both over 100bbs, so going to defend with this hand. Lots of flops I can steal on.
Flop: ($9.25) 9
5
8
(2 players)
BB bets $6, Hero calls $6
If this person raised with AK-AJ, etc... type hand, they are going to slow down on the turn once I call. I have some outs and a nice gutshot = call vs raise.
Turn: ($21.25) J
(2 players)
BB checks, Hero bets $11.62, BB calls $11.62
Sweet... hit my gutshot, I'm such a luckbox. Trying to size my turn bet for an easy river shove and allow for the illusion of fold equity against me.
River: ($44.49) J
(2 players)
BB checks, Hero bets $41.08, BB calls $30.57 and is all-in
Not a bad river. Could have been better, but going to go for max value and hope my opponent has something, which I assume is somewhat so/so based on turn and river checking.
Results: $105.63 pot ($3 rake)
Final Board: 9

Hero showed Q
T
and won $102.63 ($49.94 net)
BB mucked A

and lost (-$52.69 net)
He had a little something. Another note too, I'll call with a lot of hands in position for when my opponent does have something like this too. I hit two pair or better, and you can usually stack people at these stakes with big pairs a lot.
