i punted. punted very badly. embarrassing. was less than 60 hours ago i got stacked. can't sleep, fell sick overnight. feels like covid again. writing this w a min to go on the at home test. negative. thank goodness.
anyway, the hand.
been playing since 10. it's 5:10. we'll hit the money by 6. mincash is worth plus 300. meh. play for a run. have almost 500k in chips. blinds are 3k/6k/6kbba. at same table all day. villain got moved here 4 hours ago. post flop pattern recognition is to thrice take initiative when checked to with top of range value hands, playing for stacks. no delays. right there, immediate street, barreling all streets. top two, set, and nut flush. anecdotal info, obv. when shown down had it, except when missing streets. only one who has me covered. ok.
pre...utg1 opens to 12k. mp calls. i look down at black kings in the hj and make it 66k. big ol 3b sizing. btn villain who covers calls. opener folds. loose passive mp player calls. 3 ways to the flop and there's 225k in the middle.
flop...q84, club diamond diamond. mp checks. i down bet to 60k. btn calls. mp folds. 305k to the turn.
turn...is another 4, the 4 of clubs. q844, club diamond diamond club. w a perceived pattern, decided to check. btn checks back. 305k to the river.
river bricks out w the 5 of spades. q8445 rainbow. feeling v safe w kk now. i bet 180k. btn goes all in. i call. villain has pocket 8's for the win.
nhgg, well played. feels idiotic whenever you punt it off, but i make mistakes. he broke pattern and is partly why it felt nonsensical. even in a vacuum it doesn't make sense and is bluffs or worse value a lot. pot odds made calling feel mandatory. had to be best just 20ish %. remember similar spots in lots of games and having stacked tons of v's w the over pair. in a vacuum, v much dislike the turn check i made, but in the hand thought i had a read. nope. at the end it felt like the one hand to fear most was the one he had. the part that you question a lot is how much of it was your own doing. started w 485k and voluntarily put in 305k, before ever getting played back at. maybe it's just a cooler. maybe i'm a moron. either way it hurts.
