Well played, MrSmith! It's amazing how much more sense the betting makes when you can see someone's cards lol. Nice comeback from 900 chips and good use of the small and then large stack. The only two things I would quibble with (and it's going to cost me money in future Roland's Room games so it pains me to say this!) are (1) being so aggressive pre-flop with weak aces (but checking the ATo!), and (2) folding the button so often when heads up (unless the BB is attacking your button limps aggressively or there are other special factors at play like stack size or table image, any two cards are worth playing heads up from the button getting 3:1 odds).
Interesting that the Hand Replayer is so fickle. Thanks for sharing, MrSmith. (An unfortunate ending for you, Roland, in what looked to be a split pot.)
Lol, checking the ATo is "mixing it up" or a variation to the AI's with the weak A's protecting my BB. I remember u limped with the the AA from SB earlier. Anyway, protecting the BB with weak A's has worked for me in the turbos (once I have estabished the tight image), but you are right, one has to be careful not to overdo it. HU never lasts long for me, I like to get the chips in once I have a hand I think is 50/50 or thereabouts. I put you on pp in the last hand, so I used the timebutton and thought about my weak kicker. I would have preferred an A9+, but what the heck!
