    finishing up another 2nl heater-ride tonight. down to playing one table where i'm 400 effective deep to the immediate left of a 73/68 spazz. just posting some of the hands that stood out from tonights session so as to keep this operation thread remotely alive, and to remind myself that running good doesnt mean i can start to loosen up or play any different to the best i can in a given situation based on my current level of understanding of poker (i noticed myself opening A8s-type hands in EP "for the image" or for "metagame" when this is quite simply a -EV play vs these guys with my current postflop skills etc etc)

    my HUD stats werent aligned for this one, villain was actually 14/10 over a 60ish sample, but my HUD lead me to believe he was 8/4 over 200+. anyway i call because 2nl lets us buy in 250 deep and my misguided read was that this was exclusively KK and AA. i'm checkraising this flop 100% because i never expect him to have 99. and i expect him to bet all overpairs with or without a spade, with 1/2 of them containing a spade and never folding. so yep i ran good and dodged 11 cards twice (he had AsAx)

    villain here was 40/5 over 100. i was pretty lost here and wasn't really forming ranges during the play of the hand, but villain was terrible so i felt he was calling with any 8,T,9,Q for one pairs and gutters or two diamonds, as well as the obvious Jx and straights. i gin the river, he calls and shows Jc4c. i really have no idea what to think about how i played this hand because villain was terrible and took such a ridiculous line which threw me off. i guess i can't really not raise the turn on a wet board vs such a bad opponent.

    this one is against the 72/66 (his stats may have changed slightly but you know the guy) i mentioned in my first post in here tonight. his aggression frequencies are as follows:
    flop: 87%
    turn: 72%
    river: 63%

    he cbets 95% of flops, and cbets 82% of turns.

    because this guy was a fish who i had position on, i paid him a decent amount of attention throughout the night. he typically minraises pre (yep, 67% of the time), he compulsively bets 5 or 10bb on PFR'd flops (seems if pot is more than 10bb he bets 10bb, if not, 5). i have seen him barrel three streets with bottom pair, and he has been caught bluffing river cards two or three times. i call the flop because i'm probably marginally ahead of his range, and if i improve he is likely to keep barreling. plus he overvalues one pair hands, so if i do bink the turn, he has a real hard time folding Jx. river call was pretty easy call based on how aggro he is i think, his barreling frequencies and general aggression make flushes or full houses a pretty miniscule part of his range. he showed up with Adtx here.
