WOW. I made sure to instantly put a note on this player before he left the table. I would have surely been on tilt if that A didn't come on the river and I lost to something I had completely eliminated from being a possibility. Thankfully it didn't happen.

Standard continuation bet. I have TPTK, but also two backdoor flush draws. I get called

UTG+2 checks, Hero checks
River: ($13.25) 8 (2 players)
UTG+2 bets $13.25, Hero calls $13.25
He bets pot and I make a stupid call thinking that I'm not going to let him push me off half the pot. I don't know why I didn't think the hand over more thoroughly, he called the flop, he can't have naked A2, and he obviously likes this card on the river. So it should be no surprise that he rolled over...
Final Pot: $39.75
UTG+2 shows K 2 8 A (HI: two pair, Kings and Eights; LO: 8,7,5,2,A)

Table is playing somewhat tight, somewhat passive. There's a raise and I pick up this huge hand. I decide to come right back over the top. Of course, some fuckin clown who limped UTG+1 calls $7.50 more like it's nothing.
Flop: ($24.75) 9 6 5 (3 players)
UTG+1 checks, MP2 bets $6.70 all in, Hero raises to $13.40, UTG+1 calls $8.15 all in
Great flop for me, nut flush draw, nut low draw. MP2 bets right into me, obviously the rest of it is going in. Of course UTG can't get away either.

Our friend UTG+1 scoops a huge pot with that piece of shit hand. Might be a nice hand to see a cheap flop, but not for this price. So it's a bad beat, but I didn't necessarily deserve to beat MP2 though. Ran the numbers and he's actually a 55-45 favorite preflop. I should have been able to put him on AAxx too, there weren't too many preflop raises so I think that was a mistake by me. I have a good enough hand to flat call there, and if we go 3 ways with a smaller pot, maybe I'm able to at least get MP2 off his aces.

I took it like a champ though, didn't berate. Obviously want that guy to be as comfortable in that game as possible.

A little tilty this hand. I reraise against the late position player and he comes right back over the top. I figured he probably has AAxx at that point, but with a blocker and some good low cards plus suits, I go with it. I'm only a 48-52 dog, right? FWIW though, with the folds up front I think my low cards are very live.

Fortunate there to get 3/4ths, probably need to stop coming over the top in this game, especially where the hands run closer in value then hold'em (where I actually like taking a flop). FWIW was actually a 3-2 dog going in.

Hero bets $1, BB calls $1, UTG+1 folds, BTN folds
Hero bets $1, BB calls $1, UTG+1 folds, BTN folds
I am fortunate enough to flop trips with the best kicker, I lead here for $1, in retrospect maybe should have led for more but people were playing decent enough to fold to big bets. I do get 1 call.
Turn: ($4.00) J (2 players)
Hero bets $2, BB calls $2
I again bet 1/2 the pot, don't want to lose him. At this point I'm putting him on a low draw, can't see him having anything else. Maybe 35xx.
River: ($8.00) A (2 players)
Hero bets $8, BB raises to $8.55 all in, Hero calls $0.55
Ace comes which is a good card if he's sitting there with A3 or A2. I time down thinking about what to do, didn't think he was going to bluff at it, would probably just try to get to showdown. Maybe he calls with an ace, perhaps though he could have AJ2x or AJ3x and call with that. I pot it, surprisingly he puts his last $8.55 in and I am of course happy to see the raise.
Final Pot: $25.10
Hero shows A 8 4 K (HI: a full house, Fours full of Aces)
BB shows K J 3 4 (HI: a full house, Fours full of Jacks)

I think I broke even for the session but I honestly don't know. I reloaded a couple of times so I can't say for sure. Still ahead $88 overall, incuding $25 in bonus money. I have $25 more to clear. Good job yourpokercash.com for staking me though, I don't know what the arrangement is with Full Tilt, but I'm sure you at least got your investment back.
