150-300 at the borg
150-300 at the borg. about 2 weeks ago. the game is 5 handed and not that great. james282 is in the 2 seat, on his left is anouther younger guy who is good, running really really well, but playing very very tight. then me and on my left a friend of mine(FOM) who is good, at times very very agg. but i think he has been playing less agg, and given me more respect, b/c he thinks i am playing well or at least wellish. then the 10 seat who sucks, but seems to kinda know what to do but just can't get it quite right.
anyways utg, seat 10 folds, james282 open limps in the co (he said it was a misclick), button raises, I call in the sb with 4h6h. FOM 3 bets, I curse under my breath, james folds, button calls, I call. flop is ThJh2h I bet, FOM raises, button folds, I 3 bet, FOM calls. turn is the 7h, whats my line? dave |

Re: 150-300 at the borg
My gut says check-call, check-call. If you bet, you could get raised by a non-flush hand. But your check induces a bluff possibly. And if he does bet a bigger heart on turn (non-nut) he may check it behind on the end. Your check is kinda scary too b/c it could be the nuts that wants to confuse your opponent. So he may check turn behind and call your bet with a better or worse hand. So you get value and you don't face checking twice in which case he will only bet the river if he has you beat.

Jeff [/ QUOTE ] then why not check call the turn and check fold the river? meta - game? but based on your description of this line, doesn't it seem like if he bets the river again you're beat almost 100% of the time. would he bet a set on turn and river? would he bet non heart Aces/kings/queens/jacks twice? if those can occur, then yea, check call check call...if not, check call, check fold saves you a few benjis Barron |

I think there is a chance that this player, or a lot at this level will fire 2 bets with a set, 2 pair, or bluff of some type.

The thing is, your flop play combined with a turn check, could very possbly be interpreted as a made non-heart hand that needs protecting (AJ, KJ, TJ). This could make him wanna valuebet a set or non-heart overpair on both the turn and river. Also he might suspect that you'll fold if you happen to have a low flush, which makes the bets easy in his mind. So, I change my statement to check, call really fast, check, and probably call again if you don't get a strong read saying you shouldn't. |

Re: 150-300 at the borg
suited 1 gapper for 2 bets 4 ways...seemed like a good idea. i think it would be clear from the bb and is a little marginal from the sb, but i thought it was fine, maybe it is horrible, i am not sure.

i tend to think it's too small of a hand, gapped, and worst position = [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]
