A bit of rungood
Just caught a nice stretch of the flipside of variance with a couple of coolers going my way, 2pr holding up in raised pots, and some fortunate spots where I was on the right side of my opponents having good handranges to be up against.

Nothing really revelatory as far as learning about the game goes — I’m doing a better job of keeping pots smaller OOP and limping/minraising with a range preflop that is doing fairly well so far. Less attachment to hands postflop is certainly helping as well.
Hand where I had the most questions but went with it anyway (once I get to the turn it’s clear but preflop I considered every option and on the flop it felt a bit messy):

yay for run-good! I think pf with that at98ds is close but ok against an unknown, and I'm really torn on the flop. My main question is this - what do we gain by seeing a turn?
