So heres my most memorable from last night. Playing $1/$2 NL ($40 min/max buy in), and my stack (don't ask me how) is around $300. The only other big stack at the table, around $240, gets to be my villian. He's fairly tight, but hyper-aggressive if he senses weakness, and is known to slow play or overbet nut hands. In short, a maniac, who never plays his hands according to "the book," but makes money because other people do play that way.
He's on my left, and has the button. MP raises to $6 (pretty standard for any decent hand at this table). I'm looking down at [Qd][Qh], and raise to $15 (again, on the table this is the normal raise for "I think I'm better than you"). Villian calls, MP folds.
$39 in the pot.
flop comes [9s][Qs][Jc] . I bet $2 (ie, please raise me), Villain raises to $15, I re-raise to 40,and he calls.
$119 in the pot. I'm sweating. He's giving me the look.
turn comes [Jh], I bet $70, villain goes all-in (around $190).
I know I have the boat, but what's going on?
