I start with a good hand on 3rd, so I complete it.
On the 4th i get a brick, if I had given up then I would not have taken down the pot.

If you complete a hand you really need to see it to the 5th street. If on the 4th you get a less than desirable card just limit the amount you put at risk if able.

On the 5th my main opponent bricks and my board gets scary for him.

On the 6th another brick for my opponent who chooses to fold rather than chase even though I have paired and am sitting on a 9 high, but my opponent could not know this. Thus I played by representing strength. NO checking here, had I checked I could have easily caught another brick and my opponent hit the river for the win.

Interesting hand here...I start out (9A)4 I decide to play at least to see the 4th, the antes are still small. Luckily for me everyone just calls the bring in and does not complete....

The 4th is good to me, I get a good draw, everyone else bricks or pairs,
Much to my surprise two stay in, a pair showing and a Q showing.....

On 5th street I now have one scary board, anyone staying in would be crazy IMO. Yet one does... in the end We find out that he was holding most likely on 3rd (34)6 but his board gets bad and instead of giving up the hand he trys to hit. Now if he had hit....

6th street I get my first and only brick on the board, my opponent is showing a pair of bricks on the board. I am ahead and he is at the mercy of the draw.

I draw good on the 7th and he pairs his 6's
He could have won if he had caught an A on the 7th or an 8.
I betted the whole way and if I had lost then so be it but while I was ahead I kept putting in my chips. I did not start out ahead but quickly got there by the draws that I could see.

And then this hand, I ended up losing.
I get a nice starting hand other than having my highest card at the door.
I pair on the 4th showing. But i stay for one more.
the 5th brings just what I need so I stay
The 6th gives me a perfect 7! But my opponent is showing a possible wheel.

This is the thing, I know my opponent needs and A to complete his wheel but I believe he cannot have it. Already that I have seen, three A's have been burnt already.

The bad thing, no 6's have been burnt at all that I can see. I should have folded but with a perfect 7 and the chip lead I have to see what he has.

Oh well, win some lose some.
