Solid and a Milestone

Four tables at $10 tonight for an hour. A decent night. Mostly because I doubled up on my first hand with QQ vs. KJs for $10. I had a bunch of hard decisions tonight, but I think I did pretty well – I really trusted my reads tonight – I laid down KK on the turn when an A flopped and I think a guy had AK. I also made a strong all-in push against a heavy better on a possibly scary board –

Pre-flop:

aggro calls. TAG folds. another rock folds.
15/2 ROCKraises to $.45. me calls.
not sure folds. not sure folds. decent TAGfolds.
rock folds. aggro calls.

Preflop I figure the ROCK has AA, KK or JJ, or AK. He never raises. I don’t think he has QQ, because that’s what I have.

Flop (board: Jh 5d Js): (good flop for me, but aggro could have AJ, KJ, QJ, JJ, or JT.

aggro bets $1.50. 15/2 ROCKfolds. I think Aggro guy slowplays a big hand. Why push anyone out. When Rock folds, I know I should be good to go.
me calls.

Turn (board: Jh 5d Js 2c):

aggro bets $4.50. me goes all-in for $4.50 is a ‘let’s take this thing down now’ bet. He’s got a PF rating of 5.00. He doesn’t have the hand.
$15.49. aggro folds. me is returned
$10.99 (uncalled).

I won’t make that play against many people, but I had a tight image, he’s a bluffer, I think it’s a pretty easy shove. If I’m called, I’m probably still ahead, but I expect a fold with a hand like AT or 99 or something.

Hand #44593825-620 Summary:

$.67 is raked from a pot of $13.50.
