Haven't played in a couple of days, college is back on and I'm catching up with friends who I've missed for the past three weeks. I had a quick look at my PT database tonight and found a hand that I think really demonstrates the improvement in my play and how I am thinking more and assigning ranges better.

Opp is a 7/5 nit over 2k hands. He's a half decent player and a heavy multitabler but tight as fuck.

My preflop is "meh" obv. It's not something I make a habit of but sometimes I see pretty cards and want to raise. Table was pretty tight though and the blinds were supernits so it's fine I think.

I just know for sure that in the past I would have bet that turn as it improved my draw and OES+FD looks very pretty. However, I knew that my opponent wouldn't fold enough of his range, and that my hand couldn't really stand up to a CRAI so I took the free card and made him pay for his mistake in checking to me. I felt really good right after this hand was played because I knew I would have fucked up the turn last month.
