Had a cassy night last night. Went in about 8.45 and got a seat with Brad at opposite sides of the same 1/2 table, in for $140. Pretty standard 7 way limping live table to start with which sucks balls when you run as card dead as I did for the first 2.5 hrs. Fold or limp/fold flop were my only lines. Pick up KJcc in the CO and call Brads EP 2 $12 raise after a call in between. Flop KQx no spades. Flat Brads $30 C-bet, now heads up. Brad fires again on a blank turn and I tank fold the best hand so far. He later tells me he flopped a set of Kings. Top up another $40 to max.
An asian guy (Kelvin) sat down to my right which seemed to upset the rest of the table. He immediately starts raising about 40% of hands and 3betting a bit. This was great as it shook up the table a bit and made the live "regs" spew more by calling shit oop. I pick up AK,KK,KK,xx,AK in 5 consecutive hands. Win two small pots with cbets in the first two v Kelvin then loose two bigger ones on terrible boards 679J5sss etc with river folds. Kelvin chips up to about $800 by hitting the nuts every hand. Top up another $60 (in for $240). Must win a two barrelled pot with top pair to get to around $220 before I call an $8 raise with 69cc OTB after its called 6 way or so. Flop A92cc and checked to me. I stab at the pot and get called by the giant Greek whale in the SB and probably a couple others. Turn Ah, checks round. River some club and bet close to pot. The Greek guy raises AI over the top which I snap off. He happily flips over the 8 high flush. LOL.
Sit on a $400 stack for a while and whittle it back to $320 ish. Brad leaves and I get KJ in the BU which I raise a few limpers. Flop AJJr, asian friend of Kelvin who has me just about covered donks out close to pot. A bit confusing here, its hard to think of a non nuttish hand to do this with. I call. Turn x, 2nd pot barrel, I tank call. River x, Fires all in for close to $200. Fuck it I'm calling. He flips over AQ and I scoop a $650 pot. I'm not 100% on his logic for the line he took but its the easiest 300bb pot I've won. Next hand raise KQo and flop KKx v passive Maori lady and get one street. Lame.
Down to 5 handed at this stage and Kelvin straddles to $6 and I have A7o in the CU. I raise to $20 as I have for any half decent hands v his straddle as he never folds pre-flop. Ever. Flop comes 552r and I check in behind as we are 350bb effective stacks with a relatively inflated pot. Turn is a 7 and I bet $25 into $40 which gets check raised to $65. Kelvin is pretty aggressive but has generally turned up with the goods at show down. I donkishly cant give up TPTK and call. He fires $140 on a K river. At this stage I only beat bluffs with 22, 5x and almost ATC being in his range. Hero folds and leaves. Cash out $500 for about $260 profit. Was a pretty fun table to play at, so much better than the limpathons that you normally get live. The greek guy must have been in for over 1k, jamming preflop with such hands as 87o and 9To twice an orbit. Getting together a better live game but I'm still a nitty tell box. I can't remember the last bluff I pulled at the cass.

ReplyDeletei dont think people at the casino use logic.... Furthermore this is probly a good line against most casino people haha
Yeah I guess you'd get alot of calls from the people who think "I'll call, even though I have 87o, just because I know you don't have a J"
