Commerce 10/20. Awkward AA OOP.
 

Commerce 10/20. Really good game.

Guy who is new to the table and in 20 minutes has done nothing out of line opens for $80 in MP - He has $3500.

Folded to me in SB ($7500) w A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] A [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. I make it $310. Total donk in BB ($2700) calls. MP calls.

I have also been solid for the last few hours.

Flop ($930) is T [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 7 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 4 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

I bet $800, BB folds, MP calls.

Villain has $2400 left.

Plan for the rest of the hand?

Will he bet if checked to? Is he aggressive enough? If not, bet. If so, check raise. Can you sort of get a feel for his opening standards and cold calling standards? Like is he going to stack off here with JJ or is this diamonds or what? Any reads?

That's why it sucks - He could have JJ/QQ, AK [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], TT doesn't even need to raise after BB folds.

He was opening with TT or better here - that was all I knew. He called very normally - not too quickly and not too slowly. He was not a pro, but seemed solid/average.

So, are you saying that you're looking to get it in on any turn? When are you talking about c/r ing?

Re: Commerce 10/20. Awkward AA OOP.
 

Bet again. $1500 or shove it in, whatever.

Re: Commerce 10/20. Awkward AA OOP.
 

if he is typical, id go allin on turn.

Re: Commerce 10/20. Awkward AA OOP.
 

I think it has to depend on your read when he flat called the flop. Does it seem like he's on a flush draw?

I would probably bet $1000 on a non-diamond turn. If he raises his additional $1500 and you feel strongly he has a set, I don't think you are committed, and you might be able to lay it down. This is player-dependent and read-dependent, so advice on the internet is not a huge help.

On a diamond turn, maybe bet $800, which gives you more wiggle room.

BTW, I have just started playing in this game every weekend. It is amazing.

I don't really like the way you played the hand preflop...

Too much thinking. Not enough betting.
