So since returning from Indonesia I've been a little busy and havent had too much time to update my sessions so I'm going to bundle them into this update:

September 4th: +338.95, EV +3508

5th: +5221, EV +3516

7th: +10501, EV -675

Obviously the smooth sailing from last month has continued and I certainly seem to have been getting some run good from steemit posting!

I also played what I think is my biggest hand of the year so far. To give a quick bit of background, I had been reraising the opponent pretty frequently and winning a number of midsize pots off him with continuation bets. He makes a standard raise on the button with AQQ4 with three diamonds and I make a standard reraise with my AA. He then proceeds to make a non-standard, but for from terrible reraise. I thought briefly about slow playing but in the end popped it up to a little over 2k and he called.

With 4k already in the middle and about 5.7k each left to play for there was no way I was folding on this flop. When he decides to play so strong before the flop he is quite unlikely to have hit anything much on such a low flop, so I bet, expecting him to fold most of the time. Unfortunately he moves all in and shows a hand with 49% equity. A gutshot straight draw and nut flush draw to add to his pair of queens. Fingers crossed...

Devastation. My opponent turns the straight immediately and I'm basically dead. I throw up a little and prepare to watch him gather up the 15.4k that could so easily have been mine. Only the three non diamond fours can save me
