So as you can see I am doing quite well. In fact I have just lost a big pot earlier to double up elliot when I floped the nut str8 after raising preflop in position with x67T and hit a 589 rainbow board and he check-raised me all in on the flop with 9TJx only to hit a 7 on the river. Other than that I had no info on the guy as he just sat down a bit earlier, so the reason I reraised here was to isolate Schlachter cause he was prty terrible and tilting to boot. He had about $80 at one point and rebough about 4 times since, so even if I was worng and ran into a monster I figured i could get it back easy, as about 2 of the buyins I had were already from him. What I didn't want the call from elliot but here is how the hand went down...

End of game 1548760942

As you can see my attempt to isolate Schal was right as he didn't have A's and probably little at all, but Elliot did have them. Given that it is quite suprising he did not reraise preflop, and from there on the play got worse. Once i hit that flop I am not sure what else I could have done. Given most players at this level will push there with any flush and even a set if I check, I can't possibly justify folding to a guy that had just chekeraised me with only an opended draw, and am thinking he will call me with a lot of good hand I have beat. That said he did have the Ad , but does he really think I can fold $150 pot to a $10 reraise. So he is essentially just calling me on a pair of aces... but hey, at least I didn't go broke this time.
