Re: How would you play these rivers and what do you put your opponent on?
Interesting reading here and AJ, not a bad read on Hand 2.
In Hand 1 I reversed, the hands. I was the player in MP (and I held AJs) and decided that UTG had a small pair. I thought I could bluff him off this pot with a large bet on the river. Anyway, he called, which IMO is a terrible call. He had third best pair here.
On rereading Hand 1, how do you rate my play with AJs here?
Hand 2
I decided to stupidly min raise the $12 bet (If figured, as he was tilting, he may well call with not a lot!). He then immediately reraised all in for another $75 or so.
After a while, I decided to fold, as I thought he was pushing his tilting image here, and gave him credit for a hand (either a boat, AK, or a small flush!).
I folded my KQ, and he showed his cards ---> KQ.
D'oh! If anything, this has taught me to rarely min raise the river. I think a raise all in, or a call is a better play here!
Any further comments appreicated!
