If there were any justice in the world...

...this would have been a hell of a motherfucking comeback.



What a brutal fucking game.

Had this guy right where I wanted him. Button was a nitty TAGfish with a 20% steal and an 82% fold to 3bet, thus the cold-call. BB is a decent enough reg. Standard AA vs KK cooler but Jesus Fucking Christ did this come at a soulcrushing time, right when I'm mounting a hell of a comeback.

This one was early. Not technically a beat, as I only had 40% equity in the pot, but I just happened to run into the motherfucker that open limped kings and flopped top set, still had a straight flush draw, and whiffed.

Emblematic of my whole night, really. Although most of the money didn't go in with me as a favorite, my opponent can't help but flop top pair with a dominated hand in a 4bet pot. Even then I don't think my opponent is in good shape against my range on the flop. AK is the only hand I have that he beats here.

Such a brutal, brutal, brutal fucking game.
