Review of Some NL Holdem Hands $400 + Pot

avatar

Its been awhile since I hit the poker tables as I been mostly focused on Splinterlands play and collecting as many Reward Cards as possible but today I fired up the old poker client and my first venture was in an Omaha hi/lo tournament. I finished 9th out of 191 players but was disappointed with my play as I was chip leader most the tournament and could have made it further.

After my blunders in the Omaha game I decided to hit the NL Holdem $0.50 / $1.00 tables (6 Handed) and had some success. Two of the key hands I played are below. I uploaded these hands to an online hand replayer with the intention of sharing them on battletube.io but the video isn't compatible so I will leave a link to the video + give a text breakdown of two key hands.

The below hand was my first double up and I went from $120* to $240


I was dealt

PreFlop Action
: I'm in the big blind / First 3 players fold / 4th player raises to $2.50/ 5th player re-raises to $10. I pop it up to $40. First raiser folds and the second pushes me all in and I call. They have me covered and get some funds returned to them. The board then runs out .....

The Villian had pocked QQ and I rake in a pot worth $239*

The second key hand in my session: I'm up to about $260 at this point and pick up AA on the button.

PreFlop Action
: It folds around to me and I raise to $3. The small blind folds and the big blind re-raises to $12. I think for a little and decide I didn't want to slow play and raise to $32. Villian then proceeds to push all in for a total of $214, I snap call. The board runs out ....

Villian shows QQ and my AA hold and I rake in a pot worth $426.

Great run, that is some decent profit for a few rounds of poker.
I'm playing myself but still at NL1-2$ levels. Never could get into the groove with Omaha though.

Have you tried playing on Lucksacks yet?

I played on coinpoker a little when they were doing all the freerolls. The hands in the topic are NL Holdem hands. I started with playing Omaha today and then went to NL Holdem ..... Currently I'm sitting at a RAZZ table.
