I had several really weird hands during my sessions, the strangest of which I'll post below. Villain is a ~15/12/4 reg who seems pretty aggro. Note that I probably play the hand pretty badly, I'll try to analyze it street by street in the HH.
Keep in mind that we are 185bb deep.
Poker Stars, $0.50/$1 NL Hold'em Cash Game, 7 Players
SB: $186.90 (186.9 bb)
Hero (BB): $237.15 (237.2 bb)
MP1: $198.80 (198.8 bb)
MP2: $100 (100 bb)
MP3: $154.35 (154.4 bb)
CO: $69.30 (69.3 bb)
BTN: $100 (100 bb)
Pre-Flop: Hero is BB with Th Qs
5 folds, SB raises to $4, Hero raises to $14.50, SB calls $10.50
Villain likes to steal blinds, so I bluff 3-bet. He should be very reluctant to call here since we are so deep, and the deeper the stacks the more position matters.
Flop: ($29) 9s Ts Jh (2 players)
SB bets $25, Hero calls $25
One would think that a big pair would have 4-bet preflop given the stack sizes. Thus, villain's hand looks very much like a set here that doesn't want to peel a card. That said, we have deep stacks and an OESD + pair, so I'm just not ready to fold with my implied odds. That said, trying not to be results oriented, folding may actually be the correct play here.
Turn: ($79) 2s (2 players)
SB bets $50, Hero calls $50
I pick up a flush draw as well. If villain has a set, then my flush outs are good and I have a 14 out draw, getting 2.5:1 on my money with solid implied odds as well. He could also have some 2-pair hands I have Q outs against. I probably don't have much fold equity (people always prove to me I have more FE than I think I do however), so shoving doesn't seem great. Shoving is probably better than calling here though. What an ugly spot. I play bad and call.
River: ($179) Kd (2 players)
SB bets $97.40 and is all-in, Hero calls $97.40
Gin card for us, snap call. WTF on villain's part, way to bluff off 185BBs.
Results: $373.80 pot ($3.00 rake)
SB showed Ac 6c (high card Ace) and lost (-$186.90 net)
Hero showed Th Qs (a straight, Nine to King) and won $370.80 ($183.90 net)
