Crazy pot - do I slow down on this river?

Deamon2 · #1 06-16-2005, 05:17 PM

2 villains seem pretty normal. I'm not using PT for reads, so I don't have #'s. No one's been out of line yet. That being said, do you guys think it's worth putting in a 3rd bet on the river here? comments welcome on other streets as well.

I'd have to slow down too since AA is a possibilty.

I think I call down after the turn raise. Your hand is just too apparent -- how can you 3bet this flop and lead the turn against a preflop capper without TT, AA, AK? this might be weak but it just seems like his hand is so obvious and yours is too, that he's just crazy if he thinks you're folding yet he's not scared by any card in the least.

If he doesn't have AA here I he is a total whack job.

MP1 is a funny little guy, I'm going to laugh when he flips 74o.

With the cap pre flop and on the flop, I'd bet he has AA, I don't even think a fish would overplay their AK this bad. I slow down on the turn, call his re raise and don't 3 bet it. River is a check/call unless of course you get another 10, then raise away.

When he raises your turn lead after it was capped on the flop, I start seeing a big AA monster under my bed and call down.

I would slow down. If my GT+ reads had him as any sort of normal player the one and only hand that he could have would be AA.

He capped preflop. Unless the read is a maniac only very few hands qualify for a preflop cap. He then capped the turn. And raised your river lead.

Crying call of course.

I would probably play it the same. Maybe just check/call river.

I call down from the turn raise against a normal Villain.

3-bet this river and fold to a cap.

Seriously, though, I think he has AA. I call his turn raise and check/call the river.

Check-raise the river if the case ten hits. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

the results of this hand are wacky; thanks for all the responses. I guess neither of these guys had a chance to be retarded until this hand.

UTG+2 showd KQo
MP1 showed KJo
both chasing inside straights.... I don't think it's possible to read into that. Either way, a nice jucy pot. I was also very scared of AA, but I figured the chance that he's getting frisky with AK is too much not to cap the turn and lead the river. I completely expected to lose this hand to UTG+1's AA.
