kettle - glad to know I'm not THAT spewy haha. Actually the first match vs Marshall ended pretty quick, and he won that one. I called a 3bet IP with 88, and 160ishbb effective. He had been 3betting a TON and I had been folding a ton.

Flop was KQxhh. He bet and I called (figured he'd bet his entire range on this flop, including all lowerpairs, AJ,AT, AQ etc). Turn was a 9x. He bet again, and I figured this was prob a really good card in the deck for me to shove and get him off better if I was behind (instead of.... you know... being a normal humanbeing and folding when I have no equity when called). I ship 88 over his bet of $87, for like $280 total and he calls with 999. gg first match.

I think losing the first match really tightened me up hardcore for the next two, which were pretty good. GG Marshall!

Round 2 here we gooo.
