Flopping a Monster
I played a session of $0.50/$1.00 limit on Party Poker Sunday morning and was able to win $16.00. I was dealt some very good cards and hit several flops. I think I made good decisions and folded the hands that I felt were behind.
I was dealt AK four times out of about 100 hands and hit either an ace or a king on all four of the flops and won the hands. The fourth time I was dealt AK, the flop came down AAK for the monster full house. I called a bet from a player in front of me on the flop and then raised after he bet again on the turn. I probably could have squeezed a few more bets out of my opponents by waiting until the river to raise, but I was impatient. I will have to remember to be patient and wait for the river the next time I flop a monster like that.
I think the biggest mistake I made of the session was the very first hand I played. I had watched several hands at another table and noticed a player from that table was also sitting at the table I had selected. I knew that I would have to be careful against that player if I got involved in a hand with him. When I posted my first BB I was dealt A9o and checked after 4 others had called and the SB completed. The flop was 849, I bet and was raised by the multi-tabler(MT). I checked and called on the turn when a 6 came and then bet and called on the river after another 8 was dealt. The MT was holding a pair of fours. I should have just check and called the river, but I thought I might have him beat. I will have to be more cautious the next time I come across someone who is multi-tabling.
