Well that was nice.... actually the longest session I've played all year, primarily because I had position on some unbelievably spewy and bluffy deepstacked fish. It was swell.

I actually started the session down around -$1800, first big hand thus:

So for this particular fish it could have been goodnight after just a few minutes, unfortunately he then doubled through me again for $800 when I made top pair vs his set that I just weren't ever folding, meaning he was now sitting pretty with a stack of $2400 and me raging at the injustice. I say raging, I was actually mad but super determined to play solidly and patiently waiting for an opportunity.

Around 5 hours later, I had been doing pretty good on other tables, making some good folds I think and some good calls, this from a good 17/14 reg who plays up to 50-100...

Maybe a standard call dunno, but seemed really tough at the time as he'd been losing several pots, and I thought he'd be on the level where he 'knew' that I'd think he'd start bluffing. I give too much or too little credit obviously...

And on 6 hours, I finally break the fish when he shovels ~500bbs into a pot with 2nd pair and no redraw. weeeee!
