Blind round 1 - Limit Hold'em

I decide I want to play tight in this blind structure, mainly because Hold'em is such a marginal game and I don't want to be risking my chips in pots early. Nevertheless, the guy at my table is blatantly stealing blinds from all the Sitting Out players who are late, so I decide to start reraising with a wider range of hands.

My hole cards: Ad Kd

Cutoff (thief) raises. I three bet. He calls.

Flop is A J 4. He bets. I raise. He calls.

Turn is J. He bets. I call.

River is 10. He bets. I call.

He shows KQ. Motherfucker rivered the straight on me. I was so worried about trip Jacks. Anyway, next time.

Next time he tries to raise me. I have 77. He calls my three-bet.

Flop is 6 9 9. He checks. I bet. He calls.

Turn is 8. He checks. I bet. He raises, I call.

Turn is a 9. He checks. I check. He shows A8 for the turned pair. GODDAMN THIS GUY.

Those are the two main hands I played in hold'em, and I've moved tables for the Omaha Hi-Lo 2nd blind structure, away from this douche. Thank god.
