I had a pretty good session so far today, up almost 6 buyins.

I've established that Alexos and I get involved in waaaaaaay too many hands together, especially when we both get deep. Its kind of a pain in the ass!

These are all hands against Alexos.

Hand 1
-checked the flop to mix it up abit, he probably expects me to bet the K always here. He prob puts me on nonsense here.. I prob shoulda bet more on the river to polarize my range better and get a call from a weaker hand

Hand 2
-really wasn't sure what he'd call PF OOP and now lead into me on THIS of all boards, but I gotta figure this board hits my range harder than his. After he pushes I'm getting like 2:1 so I have to call
-he had a set of 2's and is getting pretty unlucky against me in big pots

Hand 5
-I think I played this hand decently. Didn't wanna lead this flop and get raised by a ton of hands probably so I don't mind c/c and lead turn when any draw's equity is cut in half
-river bet is debateable, c/c could be better if his range is mostly draws but I was lucky he had JT
