QQ vs. BPAT (Best Player at Table)
Commerce 400 NL, 5/10 Blinds, 9-handed
Hero has Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] on the Button.
Villain is in the SB.
Hero (Button): $1,200
Villain (SB): $2,300, exceedingly good player. The best at the table by a reasonable margin.
Three limpers, Hero (Button) makes it 60 to go, Villain (SB) raises to 120, folds around to Hero, Hero calls.
Flop (2 players, $280): 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
Villain bets $150, Hero calls.
Turn (2 players, $580): K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
Villain checks, Hero...?
Comments on all streets welcome.
My gut: I like my flop call since Villain is much better than I am and I plan on playing this hand passively to the river. I have no idea where I am at any point in this hand, and I highly doubt I could find a bet that would tell me where I am. Of course, those of you who have experience against very good players may know of a good line to take. My plan was to check behind on the turn and call any reasonably-sized river bet. I'm not saying that's what I did, but that was my plan. Does my plan suck?
