I'm not sure if I like my play here or not. I think I might have been a little shellshocked from an earlier session. In the earlier session the villain would minbet his button on the flop after limping. I started calling really light. His cbet on the turn gave his hand away, if he minbet turn he was weak if he halfpot turn he was strong. He was also incredibly passive on my button and semiloose. These reads should have been enough for me to crush him, but... somehow he managed to chip back every time I had him close to busto. It took me 150 hands of utter frustration to finally bust him.
So I think I started this session a little shellshocked. Shellshocked is the term I use when I expect to be outdrawn every hand. I took an early lead in this session until I ran into quads twice. Luckily, I lost only medium size pots each time. I ground back to slightly ahead and took a decent lead when my top two backdoored a flush and I induced him to bluff.

I think he was frustrated here. I float the flop, because he is 3betting 20% and I think his range is very polarized to high pockets (AA KK QQ). Yahtzi on the turn. I am fairly sure I have him beat at this point. I'm a little scared of QQ on the river, but no way I can fold.

I really play the next hand exceptionally nitty. He raises from his button and I flop a full house. I checkraise and he calls. This is my standard play from oop when I flop a full house. I would play it the same with 33 here as well. When he calls the flop I am worried he has an 8. Since the turn makes a possible bigger boat I want to pot control this hand, so I just check. If he bets I am definitely calling down, but I'm not too happy about it. After he checks turn I make a better boat on river. I bet and he pays me off with trips with a very weak kicker. It might actually be better to jam the turn, but when you get reraised it is a very tough position to be in.
