On the 2+2 table tonight .50/1 Tight pretty darn aggressive. Normally 2 people seeing the flop for 3 bets.
EMP opens, folds to me in the BB and I simply call the raise with 66 (suits don't matter)
(4.5 SB)Flop 7 2 3 r
My assumption is that the flop completely missed my opponent. So either I'm still way behind or I'm the favorite for the hand.
I check, emp bets, I raise, emp calls
Turn(4.25 BB): 6
I bet, call
River(6.25 BB): J
Now I have a quandry, do I check to try to induce a bluff or bet out and hope to be called? He called the turn so perhaps he has showdown equity?
I think I play this wrong and bet, I'm called.
My set takes the hand over KJs
EMP asked what mistakes were made, and as I look at his hand play I'm not so sure he made any terrible ones considering the table.
He raised KJs on a table were a raise likely steals the blinds. He did make a mistake in raising my blind because I will defend it with a lot of hands getting 3.5 to 1. I think the raise is a little loose from EMP but a couple hands later and I'm raising it.
On the flop I checked to him and he bet, that's reasonable. I checkraise and to be frank I do that a lot in blind defence. I also get a lot of free cards and pick up pots cheap on the turn, so it's very hard to put me on a hand here. K high may still be good and since he's getting 7.5 to one on a 6 outer it's correct to call.
Turn: I bet, he's getting 5.25 to 1 on a 6 outer. I think this call is wrong. In heads up play though versus an aggressive big blind is it worth calling? In this case I don't think so and I'd likely fold, or if my opponent may fold a small pair I'd raise.
River: I bet, emp has caught Top pair pretty good kicker versus a random hand. I'd raise and call a reraise. It would suck for me in this hand but heads up top pair is worth a raise.
Thoughts?
