Heads Up against a LAG
UB 2/4 Kill It was a very fishy game, but the fish have left and the game is breaking. The remaining players are tight except for a new player who sat down the previous orbit and was betting and raising nearly every hand. This player is a maniac, but is not automatically going to the river with every hand when someone else is betting.
Kill Pot: Folded to me in LMP (2 very tight players to my immediate left) I raise A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] K [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] T [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 4 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], folded to LAG in the SB who calls after posting the kill blind, tight BB folds. Flop 8 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 9 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 9 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] Lag bets, I raise, Lag calls. Turn: 2 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] Lag checks, I bet, Lag calls. River: K [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] We both check. Results in white: <font color="white"> LAG had 7s 6s 6c 2s, I sucked out on the river with kings up </font> |

Re: Heads Up against a LAG
If he had bet on the river would you have folded?

Re: Heads Up against a LAG
Why would you fold to a bet on the river?
The king couldn't have improved him to a better hand than we have unless he has KK. |

Re: Heads Up against a LAG
The OP acted last. Why not bet if he would have called a bet? He might have won without a showdown. I wasn't recommending folding, I was thinking about betting myself, especially against a lag who's lost the initiative.

Re: Heads Up against a LAG
I’d have checked behind on the turn. You have nothing but hope and LAG/maniacs don’t tend to fold a lot, particularly if they have both bet into and then called a preflop raiser.
Once you get to the river like you did, I’d have bet the river since he’d check-called twice and I’d probably fold to a raise. The chances he has a better hand than you are pretty slim since it would have to be 82/K2/K8 the way he played it. --Greg |
