Fnord is an unknown quantity at this point

1 very loose/fishy player limping in front followed by another player that looks a little fishy. I decide the water is safe enough for busting out KJo, then the 3-bet pre-flop slows me way down. Put her on AA/KK/QQ or AK.

The 3-bet on the turn was no surprise. Was a good chance to drive out MP2, so any solid player with a big pair might make that play.

The 3-bet on the river concerned me, I figured a big pair would just call my value raise, so I was thinking set.

I've actually made a return to Limit and its not going great, i'll post some stats once i gather a few hands together but at present my biggest loser is . . . *drum roll* Ace Ace.

I've played 6 win% 0% ($25.00ish) at around ($4.50) a hand. In, theory my stats should even up and this stat should turn around, KK isn;'t to far behind it. Overall I'm up about $5 haha.

MY big money spinner is the AKos, which doesn't surpise me as its my biggest tourney chip winner too. AKs, isn't as much of a money spinner and i think i know why, its because its suited i trick myself into thinking i have the odds to chase 3 flushes and overcards with it.

Allthough in tourney my aces are undefeated at 100%. I dare not slow play them to much, T100 in the early stages is the lowest ill go, KK is higher at T150.

Same here, I'm thinking AK is way more powerful in limit. AKs just recently got above water.

The other funny part of that hand is they both tried (and failed) to check-raise me on the turn and in the process gave me a free draw to the stone cold nuts. FPS!
