pretty wicked cooler.


And hooray! I was on the correct side of it.

Converting hands till the cows come home
Cereus No Limit Hold'em $0.10/$0.25 - 5 players

Button: $25.25 (Hero)
SB: $44.21
BB: $31.12
UTG: $43.91
CO: $19.91

Preflop: ($0.35) Hero is Button with (5 players)
UTG calls $0.25, CO folds, Hero calls $0.25, SB calls $0.15, BB checks

UTG is a 45/11 limper, I have punished him several times to this point. His stats suggest he will fold to reraises, but he keeps calling me. I decide to change it up on the button and just call with my suited ace.

Flop: ($1.00) (4 players)
SB checks, BB checks, UTG checks, Hero bets $0.50, 2 folds, UTG calls $0.50

Hey, nice flop! Top pair, nut flush draw. And a gutshot to go with it. Let's start betting and pot-building.

Turn: ($2.00) (2 players)

Weee! I hit my flush. Hey look, it happens to be my gutshot card also. That's pretty cool, I hit a straight and a flush at the same time....

(wait for it) ...

HOLY SHIT BATMAN, THAT'S A STRAIGHT FLUSH!
(sorry, it takes me awhile).

What to bet, what to bet? Let's bet small, like we're scared of the flush card...

UTG checks, Hero bets $0.70, UTG raises to $2.40,

thank the Lord, villain's got something. Maybe a smaller flush? 67? set? Not sure, but I'm going to reraise him again. The old minraise - let's hope I don't snap the line...

Hero raises to $4.10, UTG calls $1.70

He calls. Good news.

River: ($10.20) (2 players)
UTG checks, Hero bets $6,

That ace is a good card (especially if he has pocket aces). Otherwise, all the sets and ace-rag two pairs just boated up. Ok, I bet enough to make sure I get some value in case he just calls.

UTG raises to $28.25
,

Well, he's got the boat, or 6d7d, which would make this the worst cooler I've ever suffered.

Hero calls $14.40 and is all-in


UTG showed , Full house, aces full of fives
Hero showed , Straight flush, ace to five
Hero won $48.45
(Rake: $2.55)
