Re: Tough spot with an overpair (50-100). A possible squeeze play?
 

also he may have you on the NFD given your play thus far, yeah? would make sense right?
maybe hed move in w/88-QQ to shut you out protect/protect his hand?
maybe i like a call ok...

Re: Tough spot with an overpair (50-100). A possible squeeze play?
 

since this is auto-fold in my book, it bothers me that up @ 50/100nl people play in such a way to make this fold a hard one.

really comes down to how often he'd do this to squeeze you, no?

Re: Tough spot with an overpair (50-100). A possible squeeze play?
 

this hand is why i don't want play hyperaggressive people shorthanded for big money. bankroll requirements for this game are minimum 500K.

you made your decision too late. decide whether you want the money in or no after he calls the flop. if you want the money in, your enticer bet against a hyperaggro is a nice play provided he bites. otherwise you begged to get yourself in that hole. as is pot's 35K back to you for 12K. looks like you pot-stuck yourself. call. hope you won. remember you only have to win the whole enchilada 1 in 4 for your call to be correct, so tough to argue for a fold given your descriptions.

So, you're surprised that 50/100NL players put their opponents in tough spots?

Re: Tough spot with an overpair (50-100). A possible squeeze play?
 

Having gotten in this pickle, I usually call getting about 3:1. I wouldn't make that turn bet unless I was planning to call a push, though. Was this UB? If so, who was the opponent?

Does nut flush draw play this way in dry pot?

well if he checks, opponent could move in and flush draw would have to fold....by betting small with a nut flush draw, it could prevent opponent from making a huge bet. It's basically a blocking bet on your draw.

his turn bet is what i was referring to, for the most part.
ppl make these small bets trying to price themselves in on draws all the time.

My first strategy post in quite some time. Game is 4 handed 50-100. I pick up KhKs UTG and raise to 325. Button and BB call.

Flop: 6h 5h 2s
BB checks I bet 800. Button calls, BB pushes for 5k. BB is the reason the game exists. I would happily call his push headup and would expect to win a large percentage of the time (he could literally have anything here, he is randomly aggressive and somewhat tilted). I call, hoping the button gets out. Button calls.

did you consider 3-betting the flop, maybe a min-reraise, making it 9200 to go? if you believed you were ahead of the bb, why not isolate? i can see the button calling 4200 on the flop with a flush draw when there's 12k in the pot and 15.5k behind. instead of hoping he gets out, force him out. or were you wary he flopped a set on you as soon as he flatcalled the 800?
