Just finished up a Sunday night session up +1500 in 4 hours salvaging the week I suppose. Biggest pot was over $1500 dragged with 34o!!!  I elected to steal the blinds from the button with my monster 34o. This was a game-flow play where I was going to steal with any two there. My plan was to show a bluff and steal a small pot with the right texture. Big blind calls.

Flop: 5h 6s, 7h

Hey it's a straight! I pot bet the flop like I'm stealing, villain calls. Villain is a middle aged Asian male who is not afraid to stack off with 2nd best. Turn: black king

Villain check raises and then it's a shove fest. I wasn't folding. I thought he never smooth calls the flop with 89 here and I picked up a classic tell where I thought he was weak. After he check raised the turn huge I shoved all in. The crazy SOB snap cold called the last $400 without a made hand.

River 6d Villain shows 4h 6h. 34o to save the week!!  I enjoyed not getting sucked out for once.
