Re: QQ
 

Raise the turn again.

Value bet the river.

"I figure with possible trips, Flush? Why bet? But these idiots might call 1 bet even if bet into with nothing, Or be check raising me? Odd play... "

because no one is likely to have a deuce and the flush was backdoor.

Re: QQ
 

Raise the turn. Bet the river.

Re: QQ
 

I have recently played a bunch of hands at this level on a Rake project (normally 2/4 up to 5/10) and I'll tell ya - if you have not played there for a while it is an experience.

No matter what you think - 80% of those guys playing CRAZY, they raise at random times, limp with great hands and just play like they are on crack.

I have folded some pretty good hands to obvious straights and flushs with 5 players and all 5 are bluffing.

Every thing you know about real poker gets thrown out the window. Pot odds are useless because you are always thinking about implied odds.

I would do what you did. The guy could have anything or nothing. You did what you had to do and now it's time to duck and cover.

I think you lost - he does not SEEM like an aggressive player but .. . . .

Kind of thought the same after playing it through and wanted confirmation.

Result:<font color="white">
I love those guys, SB held AKs and didnt 3bet and UTG held 7xo </font>

Re: QQ
 

Lol i know, These two are psychos. Donk bets, Not PFRING great hands Etc. It sent me into confusion and i called down.

Re: QQ
 

I think you are ahead at least 80% of the time.

Re: QQ
 

you have a strong hand and you are ahead most of the time. Raise the turn and bet the river. If you get 3bet on the turn, call down.
