Default Re: Countering a Good Hand Reader

+2 is a TAG poster and does a good job of reading hands and playing his hand accordingly.

UTG is not much to talk about. On the tightish side, but passive.

UTG limps, +2 raises, folded to me in BB with A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]4 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], I call, UTG calls

Flop is 5 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]2 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]3 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

I check, UTG checks, +2 bets, I check/raise, UTG folds, +2 makes it 3.

Obviously if he called the flop, I'd bet any turn hoping to 3 bet. However, given his flop 3 bet, what sort of cards on the turn determine how you'll maximize the deception you've gained here.

I'm still not sure why you called a PFR with suited trash OOP in a 3 handed pot. I fold this everytime when a good player is raising

In this situation I would also fold, given that we have a good tag raising from an early position against an early position limper, this means there is a higher probability than normal that the hero is drawing to 3 outs or less, which means there is also a higher probability than normal that the hero will make a second best hand. This is a situation I like to avoid even when I'm getting 5-1 to participate.

Now if you change the action to, guy open limps in MP1, good tag raises in CO, folded to BB, now A4s is too strong of a hand to consider folding even though the hero would still be OOP in a 3 handed pot.
