The beauty of the overbet

I was down $5 and was on tilt so I reviewed some hands and shut poker down.

But I suddenly felt an urge to play and felt super focused. Sure enough, I went back and made $45 more yaaay.

This hand sure helped. I nearly forgot about my old friend the overbet.

Pre Flop: (pot: $0.15) Hero has J♥ K♥

fold, fold, fold, Hero raises to $0.30, MP+1 calls $0.30, fold, BTN calls $0.30, fold, fold

Sort of loose open but there were several fish at the table and it plays well if suited.

Flop: ($1.05, 3 players) Q♥ A♣ T♦
Hero bets $0.50, MP+1 calls $0.50, foldt

Flop the nuts vs more than one opponent. How wonderful! I bet half pot since I'm not scared of anything at the moment.

Turn: ($2.05, 2 players) 9♥
Hero bets $1.80, MP+1 calls $1.80

Beautiful, basically a blank by my books.

River: ($5.65, 2 players) 2♠
Hero bets $14.00, MP+1 calls $13.08 and is all-in

Another blank. Now he quickly called the turn so I know he's strong. He literally insta-calls this river with his hand. I loved every second of it

I love you overbet ♦
