Here's a perfect example of why February's been a struggle. A hand where I 4-bet bluffed, was flatted, flopped what amounted to the nuts - but was actually an underdog to exactly one of the 2,162 possible two-card combinations my opponent could have been holding (and yes, he was holding that one combination):
Hero (BTN): $104.05 (104.1 bb)
SB: $120.75 (120.8 bb)
BB: $100 (100 bb)
UTG+1: $125.25 (125.3 bb)
MP1: $100 (100 bb)
MP2: $93 (93 bb)
MP3: $145.10 (145.1 bb)
CO: $261.50 (261.5 bb)
Pre-Flop: Hero is BTN with 7d 8s
5 folds, Hero raises to $2.50, SB raises to $9, BB folds, Hero raises to $22, SB calls $13
Flop: ($45) 5c 9s 6c (2 players)
SB checks, Hero bets $16, SB raises to $32, Hero raises to $82.05 and is all-in, SB calls $50.05
Turn: ($209.10) Kc (2 players, 1 is all-in)
River: ($209.10) Ks (2 players, 1 is all-in)
Results: $209.10 pot ($3 rake)
Final Board: 5c 9s 6c Kc Ks
Hero showed 7d 8s (a straight, Five to Nine) and lost (-$104.05 net)
SB showed 7c 8c (a flush, King high) and won $206.10 ($102.05 net)
Current Bankroll: $15,072.49
Thursday: 2392 hands; down $201.90; EV: -$162.68
