Is Live Poker Rigged?

“Make me move, get bluffed out of a pot, then I have to move again? Live poker is rigged”… or at least that’s how it feels when you keep losing chips. 😅

I open 10♦9♦ from the lojack and get 3-bet by a familiar opponent, Big Huni, in the hijack. With a hand that plays well postflop, I take a flop in position. The board comes K-K-3 with two diamonds, giving me a strong draw in a growing pot.

The turn brings another diamond and suddenly the hand gets spicy. With multiple logical value hands in his range and my equity shifting, the pot starts to balloon and every decision matters.

Then the river hits, we move all-in, but will Big Huni pay us off? Or does he have the better hand?

Big pot. Big decision. Poker humor included.
