Sometimes a player just has your number...

Yeah, same thing happened to me yesterday. Met the biggest and most aggro whale I ever saw in my life. Cracked my KK twice, my two pairs with higher two pairs, etc etc. Then again, I remember I was up like 4 bi on a 50NL reg b/c we had aggressive LP dynamics and I always had AA when it went in lol.

Btw, please don't tell me this is your standard game. A lot these hands look spewy. Were you on tilt or something lol?

Same was for me yesterday, some fish was winning like every pot vs. me, he was sitting at the other side of the table. It was a nice juicy table and i was running pretty good but not vs. that guy. I kept playing there, was patient, picked up AA and got it in vs TP no kicker on a drawwy board, it held and i finished cleaning his stack the hand after

LOL, I wish this was my standard game. No the other player and I had been playing 3-handed for a couple hundred hands and he had been getting owned pretty hard by myself and the other player. During this time he showed some habits that are evident in the above hands. One big one was shoving a lot of draws on the flop/turn (as well as calling with any draw)... and he would never fold a pair or a draw... not even for stacks. Against him, I was willing to stack off with Any top-pair hand... and also the second pair hand with the open-ended straight draw (4th hand).

The 3rd player, the SB in the first hand here, was also a spewy mess and they got in 3-4 times before the third guy left... up a bundle -- sad thing, the SB in the first hand started with a $2 stack... so he ran it up to 20x what he sat with playing the villain. When the villain's shoves weren't called, he would show his hand... so it was pretty obvious what was going on. At this point I started to see that the villain was playing the same way against me... so I just went with it. I am not afraid of a little variance. Although, 4 times in a span of 8 minutes was a bit rough.

Anyway, you might notice that between hands 2 and 3... (these are in order the way they happened) the villain lost a buy-in. He was spewing money all over the place, I just couldn't seem to get my hands on any. He ended up spewing all the money he won from me and whatever he brought to the table in rebuys and he left shortly after the 4th hand here because some tard on the table started asking me why I was staying at the table if "[villain] had my number" all the time... and then looked at the hand histories and stated in chat that of course I wasn't leaving... villain kept putting the money in bad and would lose it back eventually. The fact that this happened right after villain spewed off 300xbb in half a dozen hands... probably caused him to reconsider rebuying... and he left.

Or, maybe, he would have been done anyway after losing all that. But I was pissed... the idiot tapped the glass and scared away my fish.
