Rough session with a happy ending

Tonight was a fun one... Rollercoaster all the way. Early on I was racking the cards, flopping sets, getting paid here and there. Then the wheels came off a bit.

Ran AJ into 55 on A54J two sooted 150bb deep
Ran KQ into 99 on KQ9xx 250bb deep (somehow managed to only lose 100bb)
Shipped AK into AA vs a guy running 36/29 over a decent sample

Fun stuff.

This one was by far the most sick though...

It's not so much that he back-door flushed my flopped nuts, its the fact that he had ~normal stats and somehow he shows up with this hand after preflop/flop where there's no way he should be calling in either - in my opinion. Whatever.

My saving grace that somehow made me profitable today:

- 66 > AK value owning a fish on J6AQ5
- A3cc floats and hits a backdoor flush and I get a reg to spaz on the river (he check/raised 80% of his stack and folded when I shoved)
- 88 flops a set (84K) and gets a limp/caller with K8 to stack off on the turn
- AQ vs QT on QJ3Q vs a reg that called my squeeze in position preflop. A river for good measure.
- 99 flops a set vs a bad player's AA and he stacks off easily

Those are most of the big pots. This one was fun too. Sick turn for this guy.
