Poker Source


So far so good, UB bet softwate is good, the fact i need too use gametime+ to grab hand histories is annoying though. I have played about 400 hands(only have 200 logged on PT though) and so far i am up 4 buy-ins which is great. I was a bit fearful of playing NL 10 with just the 10 buy-ins. If i dropped a few at first it could of been a struggle. If i get it over $170 before i hit a downswing i'll be very happy. Anyway here's two of the bigs hands i played tonight.

The first there isnt much too it. Bascially all you need to do is flop middle set, hope opponent has bottom set and the other donk has played his Ace's like an idiot.


Ultimate Bet No-Limit Hold'em, $.10 BB (8 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: HTML)



MP1 ($8.64)

MP2 ($3.42)

CO ($14.20)

Button ($10.25)

Hero ($16.18)

BB ($10)

UTG ($9.85)

UTG+1 ($4.26)



Preflop: Hero is SB with 4h, 4c.

UTG+1 calls $0.10, MP1 calls $0.10, MP2 calls $0.10, 2 folds, Hero completes, BB checks.



Flop: ($0.50) Qd, 3c, 4s (6 players)

SB bets $0.35, BB calls $0.35, UTG+1 folds, MP1 raises to $1.9, MP2 folds, Hero calls $1.55, BB calls $1.55.




Mp1 is a clown who c/r me before then led out on the turn so i decide to flat call his raise and CRAI on turn.

Turn: ($6.20) Ts (4 players)

Hero checks, BB bets $3, MP1 raises too $6.64, SB raises too $14.18, BB calls $5.




As soon as BB lead out i got an erection, and then when donk shoves i came in my pants. I knew i was ahead and only a bad river card would do me.


River: ($18.20) Kc (4 players)



Final Pot: $185.20



Results in white below:

Hero has 4h 4c (three of a kind, fours).

BB has 3d 3s (three of a kind, threes).


MP1 has Ad Ah (one pair, aces).

Outcome: Hero wins $15.20.



Ship IT!!!!!


The next hand isnt enjoyable. Lost a stack with Ace to some knobs deuces. I was busy on another table going up against a guy with 170bb's compared to my 240bb's so i was pretty distracted.

I should of put UTG all in with my 3bet, or i should of just shoved. The flop shove is standard i think.

This was pretty much the last hand of my session which was very annoying too lose but i had a great day overall so cant complain. Clear $5 of my bonus too, gonna try work out tomorrow roughly how long it will take too clear, i've got two months which should be definitly do able but the quicker i get off UB the better, something i dont like about it..

FlopTurnRiver sucks.
