I managed to play a couple of cash sessions on Gala (o.o5/0.10) the last couple of days.
On Friday evening I ground it out for 90 mins for a grand profit of exactly $1! yes $1 lol. I only won a couple of hands when I hit a set of 3s on the flop against flopped 2 pair. The other hand was when I checked raised with AK on an AT4 flop and he folded. That was it!
On Saturday afternoon I played the same game. Its always nice to hit a big hand early on and almost double up!
This was a classic case of inability to put AA down when an opponent shows strength on a ragged rainbow flop! I knew he wouldnt have flopped a straight as he wouldnt raise in early position with 97 so I was hoping that he had a big pair when I hit my set. Sure enough he bets $1 and to be honest I would do the the same on that flop. BUT if I then go and re-raised I would have to have serious think about what my opponent had. Still I guess it is tough to lay down AA and he may have put me on KK or QQ. Anyhow it was great to see him re-raise me to $5 and it was an easy decision for me to go all in for the last $3. He turns over AA and I just need to avoid an A to double up which i do and hit a full house with the river 8 for good measure! lol I guess he was unlucky that I hit my set but then again I practially told him I had a massive had with my re-raise and all in but thankfully he took no notice!
