Here is a group for my Aussie mate Shaun.
Man, did I fancy Blondie in my youth or what...?
And a final song from Bob Marley for me old 'mucka' Nickolai Dillonovich Evansov:
In this hand a Fish limps the button and calls my BB raise. I usually go broke with TPTK, but the Fish let me get away.
I couldn't get away from my hand. I put him on a big pair with the king or queen of spades. C'est la vie.
The villain called my preflop raise IP with a pocket pair and raised my cbet on the flop. I just called and check raised the turn to push him off the pot.
I attacked the BB and cbet the flop. His small raise on the turn priced me in, and I caught my gin card on the river.
I squeezed from the SB and caught the perfect flop. The villain had a big draw and drowned me on the river.
What a sick river. I just couldn't put the villain on a hand.
The villain was very aggressive in position, so my best line was to just call him down.
Here is an excellent tip from Phil Hellmuth. Watch out for that tongue:

It's all about body language, but what does scratching your head mean, Phil?

Today I actually ran good at the beginning of the session, which makes a nice change.
I raised up my suited connectors utg and the BB re-popped me, so I called IP. He is a good player, and can get tricky, so I decided to take a free card river card with flush and gutshot straight draws. The river brought my gin card:
In this hand, the villain had already check / raised me on the flop several times, after calling my raise preflop OOP. His donk lead all-in bet on the turn just screamed weakness, as he is representing such a polarised range, which at this level, he wouldn't play this way, so I called him. Ship it....!
I get coolered on a daily basis, and now have become virtually immune to it's affects.
I started off the session with this little beauty:
This next hand really tested my fortitude. My saving grace was that playing 4 tables, I had no time to get mad lol.
The villain was commenting on my 'rock' image in the chat lol. He then proceeded to donk off his whole stack to me - Sucka !
