20-40 with \"thinking\" players
20-40 game at Ocean's 11
I have never really liked the term thinking very much. Because I could tell my opponents were thinking in this hand, just not very well.
I am in the BB with AJo
UTG posts a live straddle ("thinking I will outwit these donks with my clever postflop play when they can't know what I have!")
Folded to SB who raises, but clearly as an isolation play (thinking "my hand is better than 2 random cards!"). I was 90% sure of this just by the way he looked at UTG as he raised. SB also looked pretty surprised by my call, as he respected me as a tight player.
I called and UTG called, flop came QJT with 2 hearts. SB bets, I call, straddle calls.
Turn brick, SB bets, I raise, both calls.
River brick and its checked through.
Thoughts?
