71

Nailed down 4 solid sessions today playing uber solid though I got coolered multiple times and misplayed a few hands too. Overall it was a great day in my book. I played nearly tilt free poker though I faced several spots which would have rattled me in times past. I am not sure but having become a gym rat may be helping my mental game. I wake up everyday at 6am now and hit the gym for 30min of cardio. Anyways enough BS how about some hands? Well wait let me just say I have been 4-6 tabling again but staying in control though I think I am at my best playing 4. I am not getting as many hands as I thought though and will most likely have to play a few extra sessions as I am going to limit my tables to 5 max for the remainder of the month. 3.6k hands thus far.

Missing value?
~ This guy was a super mega donk and I get the KK yeah. Flop is terrible by me as he peels vs a small bet or crai where the jam may scare away worse pairs and obv folds out all his air. I was thinking villains has something and hopefully will put me on AK if I jam. Truth is there is really no point in jamming. 1/2pot would have been tits.

Are you trapping me?
~The villain who flatted the flop jam is a laggy 27/24 reg who seems to be owning the game. His hand looked alot like the nuts or 2p and I didnt think there was much value in an overcall. Curious what others think?

Mini raise?
~Curious about this one as well. I think most will agree that flop MR are generally weaker then turn MR and usually include TP,MP and draws a ton. In this spot villain is quite loose and kinda aggro. Calling is ok but I dont think there are a ton of turns I love and I hate checking the turn to him and giving him the lead IP. I therefore apply the Dodgy theorem? I 3bet and he jams, bahhhhhhh lol. Best part about these beats is I do just that and move on. All we can do is get it in good, end of story.
