Formulating a plan against a passive pre, agg post player.

Entity · #1 07-13-2005, 06:20 PM

I raise 77 UTG. Everyone folds to the loose, semipassive SB who 3-bets. I haven't seen him raise yet. I have seen him limp AQo UTG. 54/6.5 preflop, aggressive postflop. BB folds and I call.

The flop is Q24, rainbow. What's my plan for this hand?

i'd just call down against this player I think. FOld if an ace comes. Or maybe if a K comes on the turn.

Seems like a good spot to call the flop and raise the turn, planning to check behind on the river. Its unlikely but there's a chance he'll fold AK which would be great. If I'm counting right, he'll be getting 7.5:1 where he would need 7.66:1 if he thought he had 6 clean outs which he would be silly to give himself.

A 54/6 player just doesn't think about odds this much.

He doesn't raise often preflop. He like his hand. If it's not a pocket pair, he will (probably) not fold until he hits.

Since he is agressvie post flop, it's better to just let him bet. Check/call-check/call-bet if no A or K falls.
