well the 50nl heater continued, currently up 24 buyins this weekend (starting thursday). I quit after i got flopped flushed over flopped flush and then my 22 on a 234 flop didnt improve vs fishies 56. I dont even know how I played, it was just a blur of profit, when youre hitting it makes it a lot easier to let go of the hands that you should.

i feel like this one I maybe should have got off of, the guy was pretty nitty and is never bluffing. I dunno if i can put AQ in his range to make this a call. Ive seen him check like every flop he has hit and then either bet out turn big or c/r flop.

i check flop because jj/tt fold and KK/QQ/AA own me. maybe i should fold pre? b/f flop then check behind turn? maybe just fold river? river is a call if he can have AQ but I dunno if he ever does...

(hand converter not working, I'll convert later)

edit: there was a good thread on SHNL discussing this hand and ill speak to it a bit for anyone who may read in the future. Basically the river is a fairly easy fold, villains bet is never a bluff, both from reads and generally wouldn't be from any reasonable player, villain makes a psb for 100bb into 100bb pot on the river where he has to expect me to call fairly often. if villain has AQ (which he has to have in his range sometimes for this to be a call) then it makes no sense to bet 49.5 into 49.5 because he can only get called by better, AK/AA-QQ so he would much more likely bet smallish to get value from AJ or KQ. if he cant have AQ and cant be bluffing then i cant call, easy fold.
