Really had a brutal session last night going to do three threads for three hands. Mainly looking to see if I've just lost the plot poker wise since my father died a few weeks ago, or just a case of run bad, preety sure its just run bad though. But being emotionally out of balance never helps.
This one is a pure cooler, just wondering if any of you guys take a different line. Bet sizing/though process etc.
Hand 1.
50/£1 (25p ante). Very active table.
Readless player opens button for £5, LAG calls in the SB I call in the BB with 8s9s
£17 in pot. 567r I have around £200, LAG has about £240, button doesnt matter.
SB LAG (looses aggressive player) opens for around £25. He'd be betting a draw to the idiot end of the straight or an 8 in his hand here with no real intention of lead folding. I feel like I'll get a call if I jam here. I really dont take many slow play lines, I dont want a card to come that'll halt the action on later street either.
So I jam. Button folds, SB calls with 10's. To save you asking I am well known for being a pure nit in this game, people play very badly. So its not profitable to get involved too often as its insane play as standard. No value in bluffing, making many moves.
I say I have the nuts and jinx myself by saying that opponent needs runner runner clubs or the board to trip.
567 5 5. Yuk. (could someone run the numbers on this please? think its 0.4%ish)
Am folding river if I slow play it. But if I feel like I'm getting called off the flop for 200BBs happy days surely??. My heads a shed.......

if he is overly aggro and spewy i would just raise small to induce
Honestly felt was best route vs this opponent, as a filler comes on turn/river its likely to kill action, him knowing my range is slimmer than most so would be difficult to get paid with a value bet. He often likes to play with the cards in the air so felt he'd call after his lead. He loves betting draws strong OOP on the flop, see him do it all the time. He's much more likely to put his stack in off the flop with the draw than at turn, or shutdown on a brick @ turn.
I know this guy well enough to know he wasnt going to fold after leading out strong OOP, having played with him many many times.
Against a different customer I play it hugely different, but raising to induce wouldnt work here at all, he'd flat, then check fold a missed draw at turn.
Simple knowledge of player bud. No luck involved, other than hidious bad luck for me
I've said it before and I'll say it again. There are loads of cash games out there. Hotels mainly.
