Last night, for the second session in a row, I hit the felt before turning my fortunes around. The more times you're able to do that, the less scared you get of going all in. I won a monster pot of $130,100 on hand 68. I'd been dealt 3s 5d, and the flop came 2d 3d 3h. Incredibly, three players got into a raising war at this point. I was thinking to myself, "Last time I checked, there are only four 3s in a deck of cards". I called all the raises until the other three were each all in; at that point, only $1,100 of my chips were not in the middle. One of my opponents turned out to have flopped trip 3s like me, but had a better kicker. Another opponent hit a straight on the turn. The other opponent had no business being in the hand. I got incredibly lucky, and hit a full house on the river. The opponent who'd made a straight commented on how lucky I'd been. I ran the numbers afterwards and it turns out I was a 9.02% dog after the flop. Sometimes it's better to be lucky than good!
