It's only human to interpret an opponent's bet as representing the strength of hand which would have caused you to bet a like amount, had it been yours. However, this tendency must be corrected for when an opponent reveals, through a showdown, just how meager a hand he's willing to bet big. The only hand I remember distinctly from last night's session was one where I'd been dealt pocket queens, but was forced off them by heavy betting from two opponents. They went to showdown against each other; one of them turned up an ace and a four, and won the pot with two pair, eights and fours. Since I would never have bet his hand that way, it was hard for me to imagine just how much risk this player was willing to bear. This is another case where I would have been happier playing against better players! Nonetheless, I made a nice profit.
During current Hold'em session you were dealt 31 hands and saw flop:
- 2 out of 4 times while in big blind (50%)
- 2 out of 3 times while in small blind (66%)
- 15 out of 24 times in other positions (62%)
- a total of 19 out of 31 (61%)
Pots won at showdown - 3 of 6 (50%)
Pots won without showdown - 2
delta: $11,946
balance: $4,483,944
