Re: Confused
I 3-bet the flop if SB is a loose preflop raiser. I think calling the flop and turn is ok if he is typical. I'm afraid of AA-QQ here.
Easy river fold when SB raises. Did you get caught in the middle of a raising war and fold the best hand? I hate when that happens, but without any reads I think you played it fine. |

Re: Confused
Raise the flop and turn. Drive out the draws.
River sucks, big pot, call/fold looks good. |

Re: Confused
Some players won't cap PF without QQ or better. If SB is loose, I like this hand better, but otherwise I'm playing it much more cautiously. I don't think TPTK is good here. At least the turn betting allowed you to see the river for one bet. Reads would help...

Re: Confused
When the SB caps PF, you lose a bit of a read on the CO.
No one's really challenged the CO yet, so he could have AA/KK/QQ/AK/KQ, with AK and KQ taking up a big part of this range. The pot is big enough that you can't protect your hand at any point during the hand. Therefore three-betting this flop is best, for value and information. River play seems pretty standard. |

Re: Confused
The biggest thing for me is that you've got to raise the turn IMO. SB's check on the turn feels like AQ (could be a flush or AJs straight draw with 6 players). Who knows about the other three calling stations...but 2 bets could/should get them out.
If you raise the turn you make it 10.5:1 for SB to call...which would be enough to get a thinking player to fold. His ace would likely be no good (AK in someone's hand) so he'd have just two outs. SB's check-raise on the river would be enough to get me out...too bad it came after you'd invested a bet. Kings up doesn't feel good here...unless you've got a donkey/maniac read on SB or CO. |
