Will “On Tilt Nick’s” Semi Bluff Get There?

Let’s look at this hand played at Poker At the Lodge between “On tilt Nick” & T1000 with the blinds set at $5/10. The action was live-streamed on Poker At the Lodge’s YouTube Channel on the 19th of May 2024.

After a $25 straddle from UTG, Nick ($7k) in the low-jack put out a bet of $75 with 76. After several folds, Tito ($26.8k) in the small blind made the call holding A7. The big blind folded, and the action was now on T1000 ($27k) the UTG straddler. He looked down at AJ and fired out a meaty 3-bet to $450. Nick Made the call, however, Tito had seen enough and mucked his cards. Two players to the flop with $995 in the middle.

The flop 105J smelled of potential fireworks after T1000 had flopped top pair, whilst Nick had a spade flush draw. First to act the pre-flop Aggressor led out with a sizeable bet of $700, which was snapped off by Nick.

After the 8 on the Turn Nick had picked up further outs, he now had an open-ended straight draw to go with the flush draw. Out of Position T1000 continued to fire away, this time around with a bet of $1,700. Once again Nick continued to play fast, he immediately shoved “all in”. After a little consideration, the Machine T1000 made the call and was a 66% favorite to win the $13,495 pot.

In the Terminator Films, the only thing that could destroy the T1000 was molten Lava. Luckily for Nick his River was just as powerful, the 9 completed his straight, and it was another victory for Man Vs Machines.
