So Wednesday went ok.
Started with my usual wednesday bowl of rice comp, mashed a lot early and was v healthy after 2nd break on about double average. Only one real problem at my table who I was IP to for once. Then got a king and another king and made a raise, got min-raised by a "splashy player" and decided to wager all chips, he called with an ace and a jack and we did not win.
Sat down on a v good 1/1 and played like an absolute mentalist for 3 hours and won a lot of pots. Problem, I was OOP to two stations who love to press the middle button. Solution, make/have a pair a lot.
Notable hands I open OTB
over a limp to £6, both stations and limper peel
, checks around.
, first guy leads £15, we flick it in. Riv
and obvious bluff becomes very obvious. £57 gets donated to me as I pretty much beat him in the pot and he proudly shows
..
Later we get dealt
again, just peel a raise from a nit, both stations peel.
, checks around.
Guy from earlier bets small, we call. He pots a
river, once again feel like he's massively FOS here, he also weirdly would bet a 5/7 here for what he thinks he value. We station and here "one pair". Normally I just whip my hand over but I've done this before and been shown
, so we wait, see a 7 shown and just whip dem eights over.
Pick up
, how can this EVER win? Nobody wins with the beltons, Villain from above calls which was really surprising.. He's losing prob £200 at this point so I expect him to get very wide especially pre.
board and I c-bet £8, he calls.
turn. Bet £14 he calls. Basically decided I'm checking all rivers bar a Q, feel like I can't get 3 streets from a ten and he's never ever ever folding an ace. We check-check a
river and lose to

And now for the most hilarious hand of the night. Whale limps with £5 chip and I iso
OTB to £5, station calls. Dealer puts a very disappointing
flop out, then the whale pipes up that he's not called the raise pre and wants the floor called. Floor rules that the board is completed face down and the flop is re-shuffled. We get a much better flop of
and the whale pots it £15! LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. We make it £44 and now station pipes up he wants his money back and folds
face up while other guy hasn't acted! SIGH. STOP FOLDING WHAT HE THINKS ARE HIS POTENTIAL OUTS FACE UP PLZ. Anyway he's quickly all in with
, club on turn for a sweat but we hold.
Work related news now to please all the non hand history lovers. So normally I work Sun-weds+sat and rest of time is poker time, yesterday I was given 4 hours notice that my shift was changed and to deal with it. Obv wasn't happy. Got to work and was given a very condescending lecture about how I should think about giving gamblers anonymous a ring. I mention about my rights regarding notice of shift changes and changes to unsociable hours and quickly ushered out before they realize I might have a case. Yawn, think my time at Tesco is gonna come to an end pretty soon, been looking for a new job for a while but realistically I don't want to take a side-step so it probably means quitting and re-training into something better suited for me. We'll see and keep y'all updated.
Heading up to Dusk tonight to calm my addiction GOD I NEED TO PLAY SO MUCH..
Hopefully see y'all there.
