I love to slow play. /images/graemlins/grin.gif
I just hate the results. /images/graemlins/frown.gif

I'm very interested into your river push, into a t200 pot... /images/graemlins/confused.gif

He played it like he's slowplaying something or has air. Air isn't calling anyway, and skip has the nuts, so....

I think the push is sexy.

Your call on the turn was wrong.

[microbet]

Yeah, his implied odds suck.

A three-suited board = implied odds? You must be kidding. Who calls a big bet on the river with three clubs? (well, except for this idiot).

You think people fold non-flush hands every time the board 3-flushes?

He just needs an EV of t60 on the river if he hits to make the call good.

Pushing on a paired board on the river - given the betting here - isn't bad. I wouldn't put villain on a set of anything on the turn; so I wouldn't think he had a boat on the river.

Yep, and judging from the turn call, he could also be on a draw that the 7 of clubs made.

I thought about throwing a rock into your window this morning as I drove by. Lucky for you I didn't have a rock.

You *must* be luckboxing today!

I figured that he might "just" think I was overbettting the pot with nothing; turns out I was right /images/graemlins/smile.gif

nothing

[/ QUOTE ]

A set of aces can beat a bit more than that...

But yeah, I like the river shove here anyway.

So, what's for dinner tonight? I figure I'll swing by and raid your fridge, /images/graemlins/laugh.gif.

I would never fold this preflop to a miniraise when I have &gt; 60 BBs, especially if the raise came from UTG. Do people really fold in this spot?

[ace_in_the_hole]

[ QUOTE ]


, especially if the raise came from UTG.

[/ QUOTE ]

This usually indicates a stronger hand rather than an open-min raise from the button.

I like the line, You will get lots of idiots to call here with just an A thinking you are trying to use that flush card as a scare tactic.

Is this a strategy post from sfb??? I thought such things didn't exsist.

[Freudian]

I love the way you played the river here. Villain going from triumphantly calling to feeling like a donkey: priceless.
