Location: Hollywood Casino, Columbus Ohio

9-handed table

Villain 1 UTG+1 (700) raises to 7. Hero has observed that this sizing is weighted towards his medium strength hands and is likely to fold to a 3-bet. This middle-aged recreational player has also been very loose over the last hour and a half of play and has been on a heater.

Villain 2 (700) calls OTB. Observed to be a very good player for 1/2, bought in for the max (400). Called Hero down light before and was good.

Hero in the BB (600) makes it 30 with A4s. Villain 1 folds, Villain 2 calls.

Flop (61) J4J

Hero check calls a bet of 45.

Turn (151) J

Hero check folds to a bet of 140.
