3-handed i'm god

JaBlue · #1 07-15-2005, 04:51 AM

i'm not really god, but i hope this is an interesting hand... mostly the river anyway

The villain is generally loose and passive and bad. I have been playing fast and loose and good (I think).
How do you like this?

Make a smaller raise on the river? Is he really calling that with a hand you beat?

JaBlue · #4 07-15-2005, 02:30 PM

The point of the thread was to generate discussion about the river overbet... are you really not calling with trips here, or a slowplayed strong ace for that matter?

I've been pushing this guy around a lot, and like I said I've been playing very fast, so you're right - with a typical SSNL image in a full ring game, this doesn't make any sense... but that's not what this is.

I don't really see you getting any answers here that you don't already know. "What's calling that you beat" etc.

Personally I like it, but I always jam my huge hands on the river instead of value betting. This is probably a leak in my game that I should work on correcting.

As far as you previously bullying him, that's good, probably should've been included in OP. Hopefully you didn't run into a boat.

JaBlue · #6 07-15-2005, 02:53 PM

at the time of the bet he has like 95 left and I thought I included the bullying thing earlier.

-Skeme- · #7 07-15-2005, 02:57 PM

Yeah, I guess I didn't read "fast and loose" as bullying this player in particular. I like the jam. My normal raise there against a full stack would probably be 3-4x his $16 bet. If he has a hand he'll call 4x his bet with then he'll probably call a jam. I'd just go all in.

If you raised to $60 and he jammed, you don't fold, do you?

Standard?

JaBlue · #9 07-15-2005, 03:00 PM

helllllllllllllll no. I'd cry and call. By that time I'd be getting astronomical odds

-Skeme- · #10 07-15-2005, 03:04 PM

Correct, so that's why I like a push.
