I sat in a 2/5 NL game yesterday and felt like I was on a card rush. In the first ten hands, I flopped top pair, top kicker twice and had Aces. All three fell to a staight and I rebought for another rack. Hands were not going my way at showdown, so I elected to just play poker and take down the majority of the unwanted smaller pots. $40 by $40, my stack built all the way back up when the big hand of the night came. Having $900 in front of me, villain A has ~$500 and villain B has ~$500.
We are five handed at this point.
Villain A, B both limp, I call with 5,5 from the button, SB completes, BB checks.
Flop comes Ks, 5x, 3s
It checks around.
Turn brings offsuit 9.
Villain A leads for $20, Villain B calls, I raise to $60, both blinds fold, Villain A calls, Villain B raises $110 on top, I move all-in, Villain A folds, Villain B calls.
He shows 3,3 and this time when somebody flopped a set it was YAPPY DAVE who had the bigger set!! Villain A announces he folded Q,T of spades and the rivered offsuit jack nuts him. Thank goodness Villain B reraised instead of called, because I’d have lost that pot instead of winning it!
I bought into the HH on the last hand possible and flopped trips, but fell to a turned flush. A few hands later my top and bottom pair were no good on the flop against top two.
Off to the Rio I go for some 2/5 NL
