Very sorry for double post, I was logged in for my wifes nickname...so the post above is from me, cant delete him somehow.
A4o hand
I don't think his turn shove is too good on the biggest brick, once you raised pre bet flop and called his raise...
What is he repping other than the flush draw - A3/AT, but I doubt he is flatting with A3o and he is maybe 3betting AT pre, so I think you played it very good.
I need to take example from that - I usually just give on flop in this spot, because don't think too much, which is a mistake obv.

EDIT: I guess he can repp Ax of hearts as well, so it is a bit thin I guess

This would be tougher if villain were decent. Fortunately he's losing. Fortunately we're dominating.

Same villain. Shoved a few hands previously and got 88 in pre as above. Think it's a snap call. Win our flip.

Arrgh! Tom, I'm really sorry. MrsTim64 and I had a rare argument and I had to go out for a walk to try to clear the air (epic fail).
Let me know when you can reschedule.

I will tell you how I did it but I'm not taking any responsibility if you mess up your HEM.
I think you solved one of my main mindset problems.

I do what I can.
Logged onto hotmail just now. And first thing I see is an email from Amazon needling me about losing 3/4 of my bankroll:
Just how sick are these guy??? I was going to email them in disgust when I noticed that the promo starts on a Monday. Somehow the irony of that cheered me up enough to let it go.

btw, thanks Tampaloeres81.
@LgWz, I think so. But despite the 50:50 odds, I never seem to cash in those.
$400 down today. A year ago I would have had palpitations and felt hopeless about this. These days I just reload the account and continue on. Feels like a rlly positive thing to care this little about losing what is quite a sizeable chunk of dough.
Interesting hand of the day:

Villain is a top reg and we are on the bubble. Lately, he has started to get out of line vs me, inc min3betting me and calling widely to mess postflop. I had shoved a couple of hands recently with around 15bbs to counter this, including the last bvb hand and one from the BU too. Here he levels himself into calling K9s. I really hate this. Nash is KTs and for that he would have to know (or have good reason to belive) that I would stick in 15bb with hands like T4s in this spot - i.e. 53.5% - to make even that a good call.

Villain is a fish, obviously. He's very often bluffing in this spot, trying to rep either the Tx or rivered flush. When ppl pot it here, when you yourself have shown no strength in the hand, you should always question their motive.
Potting it here makes no sense without history. Hero has no hand so how could he call such a big bet. Villain will always bet his value hands smaller here, to try to eek a call from Ace high or w/e, knowing the board is scary. So potsz makes no sense for value. Ergo... bluff.
And the funny thing is, if he makes it $1000, I'm snapfolding.

One of the things I love about Party is that certain words have to be typed like the title of this entry, i.e. with_a_space_between_each_letter. Apparently it's because they don't like you discussing their competitor sites while playing. Not that you'd have much to say about FTP right now, of course. I don't tilt very often but hands like this send me spinning:

And the really sick thing is that I wouldn't give a flying f* if this was a fish. I would just say "Nh" and wait to pwn him in a few hands time. But no, it's this guy:
(A genius who basically plays variance-free poker because he's so flipping good.)
And what I hate most of all is that this guy can call any two cards against me (an objectively strong reg, if that's not too immodest), heads up, and still find a way of getting paid off, right down to his trademark River overbet with massively polarised range.
