Default Re: LAP River Play

This is interesting because as the person who was playing with him, I felt I was either chopping or winning, not chopping or losing. The guy is a chronic donker or check caller OOP and a chronic caller or honest raiser in position. One thing that is definitely overlooked when reading a post as opposed to playing a hand is the action on earlier streets.

This guy was the flop aggressor and stopped after I raised, then continued to call down until the river. For this type of player, that kind of play is not indicative of flopped trips. The later streets, yes, but the flop, no. Players like this do not get tricky on several different streets. When he just called the flop raise after betting and just called the turn bet on a 3 flush board, it's very obvious that he doesn't have trips, no?

One of the biggest reasons we make 2.5 - 2.75 bb/hand with AA (and others don't) is because we don't play pocket aces nearly as bad as this guy did.
