Villain 1 is new to the table, but bought in for $400 and isn't young so he prolly sucks.
Villain 2 has been at the table a bit longer. He is younger and bought in for $1000. However his play has been pretty suspect so far (Roy feel free to chime in if you disagree with my read). He has limped a bit too frequently, imo, and also min-raised once or twice. One hand he min raised the cutoff, I made it $70 OTB, he called and led the AT3 flop and folded to my raise. Imo that's a terrible line with anything. But he has talked to Roy and I a decent amount and he's going to the Aussie Millions next year, and allegedly visits Vegas every summer and plays a lot (he lives in Vancouver). I would say, if he didn't have me directly to his left, and Roy directly to my left, he would be a winner in the game, but not by a big margin.
Roy and I have been raising his limps a LOT and have both been getting the best of him.
Villain 2 limps in MP and I make it $50 next to go. Villain 1 calls in the BB. The flop comes down 332 with two diamonds. Villain 2 immediatly checks. Villain 1 checks, and villain 2 checks again (since its now actually his turn to act). I bet $120. Villain 1 thinks for not very long before shoving for $410.
"Diamond draw?" asks Villain 2.
Villain 2 ponders for about 50 seconds - 1.5 minutes and says
"Let's gamble," and calls.
The action is on me. Effective stacks to start the hand were about $1200.
Boy, you got me confused with a man who repeats himself.
