---------------
Late Registration Table Reads (table 3, right by the TV):
1 middle aged player
2 Hero
3 young European guy, asked a lot of questions about Big O (as I had bumped into them at Rio day before
4 middle aged lady
5 woman with glasses
6 older guy?
7 older guy
8 middle aged guy (possibly with hat)
---------------
Hero arrived fairly late (as usual), but a little too late. After waiting 5 minutes for a seat to open, Hero started at the 400/800 limit (level 5). 18 bets is a little shallow, but definitely a playable stack.
---------------
LO8:
Hero dealt in MP: Ax 7d 3d 2x
Preflop:
2 players limp
Hero limps
Hero folds a high flop when facing bets.
Analysis:
Preflop: With a couple other players, this is an ok hand to peel in a MW pot (3+ wheel cards + counterfeit protection). Hero fit/folds on 2 high/3 high flop.
---------------
LO8:
New Reads: Vil1 annouced he's a fish in both games and was showing down/peeling light when drawing thin and getting half and/or scooping.
Hero dealt in UTG+1: Ax Ks 7x 2s
Preflop:
Vil1 (UTG): limps
Hero: raises
(folds to SB)
Vil7 (SB): calls
Vil8 (BB): calls
(4 players - 4 small bets in pot)
Flop: Jc Ts 8c Td
Vil7: checks
Vil8: checks
Vil1: checks
Hero: bets
Vil7: folds
Vil8: folds
Vil1: raises
Hero: calls
(2 players - 4 big bets in pot)
Turn: Jc Ts 8c Td
Vil1: bets
Hero: folds
Analysis:
Preflop: Standard isolation play against fish.
Flop: This is a bet/call HU. Villain's range screams 2p-set-straight given Seat 1's tendencies.
Turn: Sadly, this card hits a ton of Vil1's range. Hero could try to bluff-raise and river bet with a gutshot to try to bluff a straight, but boats are never folding.
---------------
Stud 8:
Level 8: 800/1600 limits
Hero didn't write down dead cards, but they are likely neutral (mix of high/low cards and Hero didn't see any live flush draws)

Vil1: shows (Td Kd) (9d) for flush
Vil7: mucks
Hero: mucks
Analysis:
Note: 6th street was a high card, but not sure if it was a T.
3rd: Hero's ahead of villain has low draw or underpair. Unfortunately, high hand comes along.
4th: Standard bet to knock out low that may have bricked with pair. But, there probably wasn't much fold equity in this spot because villain's a loose passive calling station.
5th: Hero should have continued to bet on 5th, tbh.
6th: Hero can't bet brick on 6th
7th: Hero thinks villain may be betting a naked low. In reality, this is a thin call b/c vil1 is rarely betting anything less than 2p in this spot (even if they're horrible). Hero could see villain value betting worse 6s-4s up, but it's only a little bit of villain's range. Given pot size, it's close. If pot had a big bet or 2, then it's a sigh-call.
---------------
Hero's stack at break (level 9): 4200 @ 1000/2000 limits
---------------
Level 10:
Limits: 1200/2400
Hero didn't write down dead cards, but they are likely neutral (mix of high/low cards and Hero didn't see any live flush draws)

Vil1 shows trip kimgs
Vil5 shows 765xx low
Hero sweats out and gets 2 pair (aces up) since hero couldn't make better low. (Hero doesn't remember exact low cards or if it was the 5/6/8 that paired).
Analysis:
3rd: standard isolation. Vil1's a fish so not surprised to see a call. Vil5 likely has a low draw.
4th: Hero's AI with likely best hand. Unfortunately for hero, villain never folds.
---------------
Hero out around 98th.
Side notes:
One of the dealers was a floor I had met briefly in Chinook Winds!
She was making a conversation with person in seat 5 regarding Big O in Portland area.
As we were playing, eventually figured out that seat 1 was a huge fish in both games and admitted to it too!
