(Q2o) Catwhisperer (92s) and hammer8822 (KJo) are proving to be the table stations. On several hands, CW has called pot-sized flop bets with no pair, no draw, and a single overcard, or with gutshots on paired, flushy boards (5s4s, here). I’m actually betting the deuce on the flop for value. Turns out I was behind, but in true station style, hammer failed to raise the flop and let me catch up, then continued to pay.
(AKo) I decided if catwhisperer called the reraise from noserider like I expected, I would push and take my chances with the extra dead money. Brutal board ensues. I get a nice note on noserider with the reraise and pf all-in call with TT.

Wow, catwhisperer is bad. Always hate to see that fish money heading elsewhere, but she bought back in.
(64o) So wrong. Oh well, dust off, add on, make some player notes, back to it.
+$2.41
No, CW! Leave some for me! Funny, CW adds on before the hand as played out.
I wonder if I can pull my latest trick of falling behind early in the session when nothing holds up, and then grinding back out a profit. Work with me, CW! Pay me off!
(JJ) “No ace, no king, no ace, no king,” I said heading to the flop. Thanks!
(KQs) Almost worth a v-bet on the river, but “random ace” is soooo in CW’s range that I checked behind (She had Q2o). It’s a start, CW, now give me the rest.
No! She leaves shortly after. Sucky. Oh well, plenty of other fish in the sea.
(99) hammer is a station, but I just kept getting more and more uncomfortable about betting because of it.
(86s) Too many draws to play it slow, and I knew if hammer had one of them, he’d be calling anyway.
(AQo) No OOP tricks for me, his tiny bet screamed “king.”
(77) Weird hand. Tested the water on the flop, then misclicked and min-bet the turn instead of pot-betting it as intended. He’s such a draw chaser that I like the river, but had to bail to the raise.
(spainR) I just didn’t believe he made a gutshot on the turn (he had 96o), and that if I wasn’t outright good, I at least had a ton of outs. spainR gets there, again.
I'm annoyed, I lost the hand history to a session-defining hand against the big stack noserider, where I had QhJc on a flop of T93 all clubs. Had the button, and raised noserider’s $1 lead out (he raised pf in SB which he hhad been doing all session) to $3.50. Really, I thought he was on a c-bet and fold because of his stack and my tight play (we’ve both been at the table forever). He called, though, and pushes on a blanky turn. I have too many plausible outs for the odds I’m getting on the push, and he didn't reraise the flop so he doesn't love his hand, so I call. He shows AcTx for top pair, nut flush draw, and I hit a random J to win.
This is interesting because bugjiang mocks me as a donk in the chat afterwards. I don’t usually even have the chat window up, but I happen to see it this time. VictorRangel chats, “The house always wins” or something like that, so I know he’s paying attention to the chat. I resist my urge to chat back, and it sets up this hand shortly after:
(JJ) I play this with my previous showdown and subsequent chat in mind, although I’m not really folding JJ preflop at .02/.04 without a solid read on the reraiser. This apparently is even worse to bugjiang, who gives an “OMG” to the chat. Now I’m really looking to get solid holdings heads up against bugjiang, since he’s not going to believe me. Unfortunately, he takes off.
Well, I cam back for the profit, but it took some patience and luck, and then I lost a $4 chunk of that profit to that last hand. Table shrank, so I bailed.
$7.41 --> $9.02
