Time for an overbet
I'm starting to experiment with overbets as I've NEVER used them before.
Villian is a donkey. 1 prior hand: I raised from the button with 78, he reraised from the SB w/AQ. He bet 1/2 pot on and A-high flop and I called with a gutshot (delay bluff if you will) and hit the straight on the turn. I bet the turn and potted the river when the board paired aces where he c/r'd minimum which I called. So all in all I know he loves top pair type hands and was even willing to c/r with AAA Q kicker when I showed massive strength already. *btw, I know the turn check is horrible* Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $10 BB (6 max, 6 handed) converter MP ($8614.31) CO ($689) Button ($985) Hero ($4131.75) BB ($900) UTG ($1108.45) Preflop: Hero is SB with K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. <font color="#666666">4 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $40</font>, BB calls $30. Flop: ($80) 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $65</font>, <font color="#CC3333">BB raises to $130</font>, Hero calls $65. Turn: ($340) T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> Hero checks, BB checks. River: ($340) A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $3961.75 (All-In)</font> It's $700+ to him. |

Re: Time for an overbet
Well, as I said, I don't like it...but here's the problem:
Hero pots the river to 340....villian pushes, which would be about 400 more so pot now = 1400 with 3+ /1 odds Does the donkey have just an ace that many times to offset AJ, A3 or the flush here?? |

Re: Time for an overbet
Why? Villian is a total donkey. I think I can get called by an ace.

he's that bad? [/ QUOTE ] Here was the other hand I mentioned almost exactly: Hero: 78off on button Villian: AQo in SB I raise to $40, Villian raises to $100, I call Flop ($200) A 10 6r Villian bets $125, Hero calls Turn ($400) 9o Villian checks, Hero bets $200, villian calls River ($800) Ao Villian checks, Hero bets $600, Villian raises to $1200, hero calls. There was another hand that was similar to this in terms on donkeyness so yeah I think he's that bad. |

Re: Time for an overbet
Here was the other hand I mentioned almost exactly:
This is gonna sound really mean and rude, but how exactly does your PF and flop play not make you just as big a donk as you're claiming he is? On your original post hand, you need to catch that ten and then get paid probably nothing less than $400 to make it correct to call his flop raise. Sometimes less cause he'll give you the river free or a K/Q might be an out. Sometimes more cause you'll chop or he'll finish ahead or you'll pick up enough of something on the turn to call another of his bets. Probably averages out to right around $400. He's got $730 in his stack left. You think you're gonna get $400 of that by checking the turn and moving in on the river? He'll call you 55% of the time after checking that turn through? I think your PF and flop play in both hands were terrible, and I think your turn and river play in the original posted was terrible. For whatever that's worth... - C - |

Re: Time for an overbet
ok if he's that bad fine but fwiw this play is better if the T isn't a heart. but in general yeah it's not so good. but if this thread is about him being a totla donkey fine just throw money in the pot whenever and you win.
