Episode 5: Pocket Fives On The Button

Episode 5

Location: Maryland Live!, Hanover Maryland

Stakes: 2/5

Time: Wednesday December 16th, 2:45 am

Hero (2600): Zach, younger male. Has been playing about 20 percent of hands. Playing very aggressively pre and postflop with kind of a crazy image due to being on a recent heater. Has shown a few semibluffs that have all got there by the river. A lot of people are adjusting by limp-calling instead of opening with most of their range.

Villain 1 (1000): Early 30s male. He's been playing about 35% of hands, opening around 15-20% of that range and limp calling the rest. Hero and villain have within the last orbit played two huge pots where hero stacked him for 700 and then I doubled his 600 rebuy up the very next hand. Since those two big pots hero has also won two medium pots off him and he seems to have been getting more fed up with Hero.

Villain 2 (800): 60s male. Looks like a standard weak tight reg. Has not gotten out of line thus far, and has almost never opened, limping about 30% of hands and folding most of those hands to an open unless he's gotten very good pot odds.

Villain 3 (800): Early 30s male. He has been fairly loose passive preflop, but has shown down bluffs and floats postflop.
