Curtains Hand #4 (Degen)
 

SB was quite loose and pretty much of a donkey. He showed several hands that were uncalled (further adding to the donk theory).

Looks like A7o enough of the time here to call.

SB has a nice stack for this stage of the tourney. He MUST be a donkey.

Re: Curtains Hand #4 (Degen)
 

maybe im a coward, but i never like my chances with an ugly pair no draw for an allin on a small pot :/

Re: Curtains Hand #4 (Degen)
 

My gut reaction was to fold. But with both the straight and flush draws out there, I agree with the others in calling.

Re: Curtains Hand #4 (Degen)
 

I think if you're gonna call PF, you have to make this call on the flop. I guess. I don't really like it. You're either behind or he has at least 6 outs. That's why I would have folded PF against a player like this who won't play extremely straightfowardly post flop.

I like the call PF against a guy like this. The implied odds are there for sure.

Re: Curtains Hand #4 (Degen)
 

Yeah, maybe you're right. The more I think about maybe its not a bad PF call, even if you fold every time you don't flop a Q or better. But I wouldn't have called in this spot. And as I am about to play a session, I don't plan to call in this spot going forward. So I guess that's how I really feel. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

He could be bluffing, but I wont consider it a good spot. If it is the kind of player who doesn't play postflop he could be pushing a small/medium pp, A high or a A5. they don't want to make a decision when a scarry card hits. I hate to make them right if I call and I'm beat.

You didn't play Q4 to spike a four or a Q with no kicker. You gave it a shot, it was cheap to do so. You want to go against those players with some kind of value, you know you'll be payed off.

What kind of donkey is this guy? the kind that check/call down middle pair, or the kind that push allin with 9 high on the flop?
