QQ with two pairs on the board
How did I play this hand? Table was loose but quite passive for a Party table...

Flop: (21.50 SB) 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="blue">(5 players)</font> BB checks, UTG+2 checks, <font color="CC3333">Hero bets</font>, MP3 calls, CO folds, BB calls, UTG+2 calls.

Re: QQ with two pairs on the board
Why did you stop betting? Why did you think the river was a bad card for you?
I could see an argument for checking the turn, although I would certainly not agree. But the river is a definite value bet. I'm fairly confident you won this pot. |

Re: QQ with two pairs on the board
At a table full of calling stations, I always worry when there is a baord like this because a lot of them will hang around with any peice of the flop in their hand... I was scared of getting check raised by trips...

[/ QUOTE ] Sometimes it feels like that but, if I wasn't scared of someone holding an Ace on the flop to be me, I wouldn't beat scared of someone holding an 8 to beat me. Bet the turn and bet the river. |

Re: QQ with two pairs on the board
I think he won the pot, too, seeing the complete action. On the river, he might be able to fold a flush with a bet, and he might get a king-high caller or a guy with a 7 betting on 3 pair, but that would have to be a perfect day at a perfect table. I guess I just don't see enough value there to bet unless these guys are really super-callers.

bet the turn, bet the river, fold to a checkraise.

bet the turn, bet the river, fold to a checkraise. [/ QUOTE ] What he said. From the action on the forth & fifth streets it looks like EVERYONE was afraid of trips or a house. You were in great position, you should have bet the turn, and then folded if you were re-raised (unless everyone in front of you calls the re-raise... then you just HAVE to stick around!). Same thing on the river - a perfect place for a Value bet. If they didn't check-raise the turn, they wouldn't do it on the river either. In da club [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] |

I think I would take a stab at the turn. If raised back seriously consider folding, depending on read. If no raise, then I would bet the river.

Re: QQ with two pairs on the board
Even though nobody bet, I can't believe you're not up against a full house. Too many players not to have an A, especially since one flopped. Attack the turn, exercise caution at the river.
Someone else missed a lot of bets, I think. |
