Default Couple of 3s

I was playing heads-up at Uni - towards the end of the tournament when there was only 2 people remaining, and I kept getting some pretty bad hands, but my opponents was pushing all in (as she had the majority of the chips) on almost every hand so I assumed she couldn't have had a good hand each of those times. I then got a couple of 3s in my paws, and as I expected, she pushed all in, I had a little think and then thought, "you know, I'm not being pushed around by her - she's taking most of the blinds and I'll have no chips soon enough," so in I went. We both exposed our cards, I had my 2 3's and she had, if I remember rightly, off-suit AK. Not a bad hand, but I had the advantage before the flop. The flop came transpired and revealed a 5, K and a (can't remember exactly), I think it was an 8 or a 9. Not good at all but it was about to come a whole lot worse, the turn came down and it was an ace. Well, I thought that was it, she'd be raking all my chips in - but as she'd had a lot of luck and was looking pretty confident in herself, the river came and it was a 3! You should have seen the huge smile on my face. There was me raking the majority of the chips in. The last few hands I took it to her and ended up taking ~£150 (Uni kids tend to be skint!), but it was a lovely feeling nonetheless !

Too right it felt good! Shame it wasn't a bigger pot but then again University it's to be expected. The great feeling was there though! As well as messing up the girl's hair when she had lost You got to console your competitors, haven't you!?

Playing under the influence is most of the fun! Add in chip, salsa, a good cigar and good friends, and you have an evening!

I love it . Your opponent thought they would push you out on every hand, but you showed that you werent gonna be bullied out of it. This time the bully got bullied and i wished i was there to watch that happen, as i hate bullies
