Empty Victory

$243 win, but should've been a lot less. I won a load of flips, then made at least ridiculous bluff without considering a) my opponent b)what I'm repping.

I don't hate this one:

I rep Qx pretty well, or KJ. So, I got owned in one sense, but in another he just lost the right to successfully bluff barrel overcards VS me.

Raise too thin? I'm trying to rep nothing, obviously.

I felt happy shoving this, even if the risk reward stackswise is a little skewed. Basically, I don't feel he's even loose enough to flat the 4 Ace-Up combos PF, my line is obviously FOS, and he's not good enough to raise call AJ+ for value (and would've 3bet ak anyway). Backdoors FTW.

Hate everything (esp 86) but the Gogators hand. Certain things he does that are guaranteed FOS. Still takes balls to go with your read. Did you show?

I can't believe you hate the 86.... no flush on board so no flushdraw there, my hand is an OESD or a pair, or a floated GS, or a slowplayed set or 2 pair.

I don't know villain well so it's not like he thinks I'm crrrazy. Of the above range, I float KJ,KQ more than 86, so most of my floats made a turned pair even if J8s didn't get there. To hero call anything here you'd have to literally put me on 87/86 and discount all those other hands.

I like the gator's hand much less because of stacks.... but yes, I felt pretty sure at the time. didn't show, I'm more grown up these days :)
