Blind Stealing hand

[djoyce003]

Ok, I was occassionaly stealing the blinds with a great degree of success when I attempted it and I was shooting for that here again. I think I have a leak in not getting away from hands when I try it and it fails. Critiques on all streets are appreciated. My opponent here was only 20% VPIP and only went to SD 23% of the time so he seemed like a prime candidate. In retrospect over the 58 hands I have on him in my database he has folded the BB to a steal 0% of the time.

I'd play it the same, the flop call can be any number of overcards so firing another barrel is certainly reaosnable, and here you are against an opponent who can make some folds. The preflop and flop are standard. You river goot.

Do you mean 58 hands or 58 times whenr someone open-raise form steal psotion and he was in the BB. If the former, your stat is meaningless. If the latter, his vpip isn't 20.

No...just 58 hands, so he's called a raise in the BB like 5 times out of 5

What's so good about the river card?
