HU duel



I sat down to play with some fishy villain who was also from Russia. he had some luck in the beginning but he played awfuly. after about 100 hands he went on monkey tilt and started yelling at me, giving me names, whining how online poker is rigged etc. I was kinda fed up but he was a fish so I invited him to the 2nd table. I've lost some pots and he went nuts. i should have reported his abusive behavior but I wanted my money back and I was quite confident I could've outplayed him. some crazy 4-bets and werewolf moves(flips in he middle), I beat him with a couple of "gus hansen hands" tilting him even more:

$0.25/$0.5 No Limit Holdem
2 players

Stacks:
BTN
($209.20)
Hero (BB)
($80.45)

Pre-flop: ($0.75, 2 players) Hero is BB

BTN raises to $1.50, Hero calls $1

Flop: ($3, 2 players)
Hero bets $2, BTN calls $2

Turn: ($7, 2 players)
Hero bets $6, BTN calls $6

River: ($19, 2 players)
Hero bets $15, BTN raises to $55, Hero goes all-in $70.95, BTN calls $15.95

Final Pot: $160.90
Hero shows:
BTN shows:

Hero wins $160.40 ( won +$79.95 )
BTN lost -$80.45

the next hand almost killed him(althoug the pot was small, note stack sizes!)

$0.25/$0.5 No Limit Holdem

2 players

Stacks:
Hero (BTN)
($216.75) <- !!!
BB
($80.40)

Pre-flop: ($0.75, 2 players) Hero is BTN

Hero raises to $1.50, BB calls $1

Flop: ($3, 2 players)
BB checks, Hero checks

Turn: ($3, 2 players)
BB bets $2.50, Hero calls $2.50

River: ($8, 2 players)
BB bets $7, Hero calls $7

Final Pot: $22
BB shows:
Hero shows:

Hero wins $21.50 ( won +$10.50 )
BB lost -$11

at some point I was sitting with ~$250 on each table..a couple more hours and that'd be "hu4rollz" :) I could have won much more from him I believe but probably I was also tilted(no wonder). that was a good exercise for tilt control :)

in the end he turned into a passive fish(flips didn't work well for him) and just left both tables.
