Take Two

Today's Results: +$25 in 2 hours

I started off well today, over-limping KQo the first hand I was dealt.  Flop rolls out QT7r and I lead $10 5-handed (3 checks in front).  One caller, who check/folds to my $25 turn barrel on a Kh, which put two hearts on the board.

Next orbit I find AQo and raise to $11 from UTG +2 8 handed.  One caller in the CO, same villain who called my KQ flop bet.  He folds to my $20 c-bet on KT7tt.

An orbit later I'm sitting on about $115 and pick up black AA in UTG and open to $11.  UTG+1, a competent but somewhat weaker female TAG flats, and the table hyper-LAG in UTG+2 squeezes to $31 (was probably playing close to 50/35).  Table folds around, and I could call, but we would go to the flop 3-way.  I probably should be ok with that and hope someone hits TP on the flop, but instead I elect to 4-bet, and the only option there is to ship.  Two folds later and I'm up to almost $160.

I reach my peak of about $180 about an hour into the session, and then I open once with AKo, flat a couple opens with AKo and 66 and miss all three flops and drop down to the $135 range.  Blind down a little further and decide to call it a day with a modest win so that I can prepare for the annular solar eclipse that will happen a few hours from now here in ABQ.

Hope next weekend treats me a bit better, but I do need to play a bit more aggressive during my sessions; this session was hampered significantly by the LAG two to my left.  I would have liked to take advantage of his style more, which a couple people who had position were able to do.
