Day 29-5: +$42.50 (+21 BB at $1/2)

Level: +$75.50 in 616 table minutes (+38 BB at $1/2)
Overall: +$178.65 in 4263 table minutes

I had an interesting session, with one table playing a crazy-LAG game and the other table playing weak-tight-passive. The play was pretty straight-forward today, as far as I can remember.

Hand 1: Yes, I slowplayed a flopped boat. This was at the crazy-LAG table, but surprisingly he didn't bite on it. I was ready to check-raise him and expect to be 3-bet. The river was just unfortunate, but I had to check-call to give him a chance to bet a worse hand.

Preflop: Hero is BB with 8c, 5s.
3 folds, Button calls, 1 fold, Hero checks.

Flop: (2.50 SB) 5h, 8h, 5c (2 players)
Hero checks, Button checks.

Turn: (1.25 BB) Ah (2 players)
Hero bets, Button calls.

River: (3.25 BB) Ad (2 players)
Hero checks, Button bets, Hero calls.

Results:
Hero has 8c 5s (full house, fives full of aces).
Button has 3d Ac (full house, aces full of fives).

Hand 2: Maybe I could have let this go on the turn. Villain was aggressive, but he has shown himself capable of giving up when he's bluffing.

Preflop: Hero is SB with Jc, Jd.
2 folds, Button raises, Hero 3-bets, 1 fold, Button calls.

Flop: (7 SB) 5h, 6h, 9d (2 players)
Hero bets, Button raises, Hero 3-bets, Button calls.

Turn: (6.50 BB) Ac (2 players)
Hero bets, Button raises, Hero calls.

River: (10.50 BB) 6s (2 players)
Hero checks, Button bets, Hero calls.

Results:
Hero has Jc Jd (two pair, jacks and sixes).
Button has 5s Ad (two pair, aces and sixes).

Hand 3: Here's some interesting OOP play at the crazy-LAG table. I think I will post this one to the forums.

Preflop: Hero is SB with 4d, Ad.
2 folds, CO calls, 1 fold, Hero completes, BB checks.

Flop: (3 SB) Ac, 6d, Kd (3 players)
Hero bets, BB calls, CO calls.

Turn: (3 BB) Kh (3 players)
Hero checks, BB bets, CO raises, Hero calls, BB calls.

River: (9 BB) 2s (3 players)
Hero checks, BB checks, CO checks.

Results:
Hero has 4d Ad (two pair, aces and kings).
BB has Td Qd (one pair, kings).
CO has Js Jc (two pair, kings and jacks).

Hand 4: I wasn't watching my stack, but it turned out to be for the better. I might have folded on the turn if raised with only a T-high one card flush draw.

Preflop: Hero is SB with Td, Ts.

UTG calls, 2 folds, Button raises, Hero 3-bets, 1 fold, UTG calls, Button calls.

Flop: (10 SB) 7h, 7d, 6d (3 players)
Hero bets, UTG calls, Button calls.

Turn: (6.50 BB) Ad (3 players)
Hero bets $1.25 (All-In), UTG calls, Button calls.

River: (8.37 BB) 4d (3 players, 1 all-in)
UTG bets, Button folds.

Results:
Hero has Td Ts (flush, ace high).
UTG has 4h Ah (two pair, aces and sevens).

Hand 5: Standard suckout hand against an aggressive player. The flop peel is standard and doesn't even qualify as a loose peel.

Preflop: Hero is CO with Qh, Ks.
UTG raises, 1 fold, Hero 3-bets, 3 folds, UTG caps, Hero calls.

Flop: (9.50 SB) 4h, Js, 7s (2 players)
UTG bets, Hero calls.

Turn: (5.75 BB) As (2 players)
UTG bets, Hero calls.

River: (7.75 BB) Ts (2 players)
UTG bets, Hero raises, UTG calls.

Results:
UTG has 9s Ad (flush, ace high).
Hero has Qh Ks (flush, ace high).
