If Only Every Session Could Be Like This

I woke up a little earlier than usual and had about a half hour to kill so I fired up Party and sat down at three tables. I sat out until my blind on each table and the first thing I notice on one is that this one player has won every hand. They raise and re-raise pre-flop, do the same on the flop, and on every street until the person folds. Seeing as how they played 5 hands in the row the same exact way I was taking a wild guess that this person was just an a-hole instead of blessed with great cards. I, however, ended up being blessed with good cards. First hand in the BB I get AKs. Everyone folds to Mr. Raiser and he . . . raises. I re-raise and he comes over the top to cap. Flop is ace high giving me TPTK. I bet, he raises, I 3-bet and he caps. This goes on for every street and at the showdown he flips up K3o with no pair. Ha!

A few hands later I get AA, same story. All the way to the river, betting and capping and he flips up some small pair. A few hands later I get ATs, I missed the flop but just check-called it down and won.

But the luck (and the stupidity of my opponents) doesn’t end there. On another table I get KK in LP. It’s raised to me, I 3-bet it and he caps. Four players see the flop which is all low cards. He bets, I raise, he 3-bets and I cap. Wash, rinse, repeat to the river. Showdown is three players:

Me: KK
Bettor/Raiser: QQ
Guy along for the ride: 44

The pot was over 30BB!

I decided I have tested the poker gods enough this morning and I needed to get moving anyway so I logged off after 20 minutes with nearly 60BB. If only every session could be like this 🙂
