Fairies Wear Boots

I'm not a big re-raiser. I think it's to do with the nature of micro-limits. In most pots there's a tendency to blow pots beyond their value and quite often I find myself battling to hold to the river with marginal but possibly best hands.

I think this hand is a clear case for re-raising on the flop and after the session this hand I was pleased with.

Trasher hasn't been at the table long but is yet to play a hand. Tutu is the soft spot at the table I'm targeting. On the flop I figure noone has raised so I must have best hand unless I'm coolered to quads. Yes, it did go through my mind....so call me Forrest Tilly. In reality though, from the SB it wouldn't be that hard to put Trasher on the case 3 and I honestly would lean to folding to a 3 bet shove from him. There's also the possiblity he's got 88-99 or has played a high pair a little funky.

When Tutu calls and Trasher then folds I was very happy with my spot now. The rest of the hand wasn't so interesting - basically just pot control but planning to see the river.

Overall, I've been happy with my play and seem to be making good decisions. One thing I've noticed that that the games seem to have really juiced up since the reload bonus over Christmas. Hopefully the trend continues.
