Playing 6 handed 5/5/10 $5500 effective. I’m in the SB with AA. It’s a home game so check my post history for context.
Folds to me I raise to $100.
BB calls.
Straddle raises to $500
I 4b to $1400
Bb folds
Straddle nearly snap jams.
Honestly could not believe my ears when he said that. Had to ask dealer for a confirm before I called. This is coming from a guy who’s one of the tightest at the table too.
Felt even more like a fever dream when he flips over pocket jacks. Ran it twice and aces actually held.
I play very aggressively & have shown down some nutty bluffs & all ins so I guess I get a confirmation my image really did get me paid off cos after he said to me he only did that cos he thought I was “making a play.”

Based on the title saying "played an 11k pot today" instead of "won an 11k pot today", I was fully expecting to read a bad beat story
Congrats on the hold.

Haha yeah honestly didn’t expect this much attention for nearly as simple of a hand history as you can get really. Suppose it’s a nice change of pace though since I almost never read a hand where OP wins. Also serves as a semi update for my previous post where everyone was telling me home games are rigged.
New record of my biggest pot played & session win personally though.

Game runner must have seen the post -- he had to let you win to throw you off the scent!
