backing off and then firing again...
I get Js-3h in the big blind.. 5 limp FLOP: 8s-Jh-Jd i check, all check to button, button bets, i check raise, a middle pos. player cold calls(ruh-roh shaggy!), button calls. TURN: 8s-Jh-Jd--Kc I bet, middle raises, button folds, i call. Here I figure he's on 8-8, maybe J-9s,J-T, or J-Q... big J's he probably woulda raised with pre-flop, and I don't think he'd play J-8s! So, on the river I will pound if I hit a 3, check and call anything else. I have probably 4 or 8 outs to a split, and 4 winners. RIVER: 8s-Jh-Jd--Kc--3d YES! i bet, he raises, i re-raise, he caps, i win and drag a 20 BB pot! He had (an overplayed) 8-8. I thought the fact that I bet out on the river after backing off on the turn screams "YAHOO! I JUST HIT MY 3-OUTER!". Apparently not. I have seen this many times, another example from the other night. A whole buncha people see the flop... FLOP: Q-7-Q my buddy(who doesnt understand relative hand values, and will go to war with a 7 on a board of A-7-7--A) so he and some guy go to war and my buddy caps the flop... TURN: Q-7-Q--x the guy checks and calls the turn. RIVER: Q-7-Q--x--8 the guy now bets, my buddy raises (my stomach turns), guy re-raises, my buddy pops it again(ugh!), guy raises again, buddy finally gets a clue and calls... I thought that it was obvious he/I just spiked the kicker given the action. What do you think? |

P.S.
buddy had Q-7 guy had Q-8 (and slow-rolled him only showing the 8, and then spreading to show the Q) |

Re: backing off and then firing again...
I think a lot of times someone will fall in love with their hand and put in so many raises that you would think either A) he's got you beat; or B) he's fallen in love with his hand and isn't thinking too clearly. You see B a lot, even in big games. |
