Why don't you raise at the turn ?
I don't understand theses strange calls. Do you put him on a set ?
So he checked at the turn, and you flat call at the river ?

Ok, not so clear ...

[microbet]

I think it would be a bit wierd for him to make the smallish raise on the flop with a draw and I think it would be wierd to just call your reraise with a set or better.

I put him on another 2-pair or TPGK. Possibly he has 33.

I think I lead out on the turn and barring that, raise.

If I have to pick a hand for him it would be A3 or AT.

[freemoney]

if your gonna 3 bet the flop make it bigger.

[Apathy]

I don't believe A3 is in my opponents limping range, A-10 is a possibility.

Give me a number.

[microbet]

Do you think he limps big hands? AK,AQ,AA?

[BDarch]

I like how you played the hand except the raise you put in on the flop. Why did you make this raise? Why make the raise so small?

I dont think your raise was BAD, but I think I would have popped it to around 300. If he going to call that much, Id be almost certain he has trips. But once again, this is read dependent.

theres like 260 in the pot and i make almost 200 more to go why doesn everyone think thats so small? This isn't deepstacked poker you know.

IDK first time playing with this person I think.

[Ryendal]

The call of your opponent means what ?
I really don't understand that ...
I would push at the turn and if I lost, well ...

[microbet]

Well, just for guessing what he has, he put a huge chunk of his stack into the pot on the river, when he could have checked. It would be a pretty dumb bluff, so I think he was pretty confident in the end.

Maybe a flush. Maybe he was being deceptive on the flop.

[Apathy]

I think the hand should be played differently on the turn though, ignore the river action because I was not privy to that information when acting on the turn.

[freemoney]

i make it 400 and if he calls i make a bet on the turn that commits myself like 325, alot of times i dont 3 bet when i should though, i guess im too fancy sometimes.

[johnnybeef]

hes either on a set, A3 or Ax hearts, the most likely being Ax. You really need to lead the turn for more information as the flop call is a sign of potential weakness. if he pushes overtop once a non heart shows up, you are likely beat unless he plays ak in a very wierd manner.

Im still at the 10s so take this fwiw,

I like the flop. I think ppl misread your flop raise, he raised 245 on top of the 55 he already bet, so thats 300. Villain has to call 190 into a ~450 pot. (hmm, mabybe it is too small)

I would see a minraise as a flush draw at the 10s, but here i think he has anything but. Or maybe he wants you to think that and he really does have a draw.

The turn is too tricky for me, that bet can mean alot of things in my mind. I might checkraise him allin and hope he doesnt have the flush but believes you do. Maybe you can get him to lay down a set. /images/graemlins/confused.gif

[microbet]

Well, with the info up to the turn, it looked to me like his call at the end of the flop was a surrender. I think I'm ahead on the turn, but not so far ahead I want to play slow. I'm not confident he will bet for me either.

[Ryendal]

Strangely I could put him on AQ. You will tell me, that he didn't raised preflop...

[Iamafish]

I was thinking bet the turn...no one mentioned it, so what are the thoughts on that?

Well actually I think microbet is talking about betting the turn also, I posted this hand kinda hoping people would all say bet the turn. i feel like that was the proper play.
