bellagio 80 hand

#1 11-30-2005, 11:46 PM

Bellagio 80? Very laggy like normally; 7 handed. 2 very passive fish in the game the original raise and the SB to my immediately right. I heard someone say they some of the orginial microsoft employees FWIW

MP (fish) open raises. MP2 cold calls. SB calls, I raise in BB with QQ. All call.

Flop: rainbow 245. I bet MP raises, MP2 3-bets. DB calls 3 cold. I 4-bet, everyone calls.

Turn: 2. I bet, everyone calls.

River: 2. I bet, MP calls, MP2 raises, SB fold, I 3-bet, MP folds, MP2 4-bets...

Cap or call? thoughts on all streets appreciated

5 betting here would be very bad. Unless the guy's a retard he has to 44 or 55 here. It's obvious you have a big pair.

Call it down. There is no need for reraising when there is no cap in a heads up situation.

isnt it only capless if the street begins with heads up?

Capping that river is atrocious, i generally dont think you want this many bets going in unless your opponents suck.

vegas has some crazy rules. for example:

in the mirage, in a multiway pot, betting is UNCAPPED ONLY if its the 3rd bet that knocks out all but two players. so if one player has already put in 3 bets and folds to the 5 bet, the betting is capped at 5 bets. this was an actual ruling i witnessed (at my table- i was the one who folded to the 3bet) at the mirage at the 40/80 game there.

i doubt the floor at the bellagio is as bad as the floor can be at times at the mirage, however,

last I checked the bellagio was unlimited heads up, so if you 5 bet you aren't capping. I certainly wouldn't feel comfortable putting 6 bets in on this river, so i'd stick with 4.

The bellagio 80 game is not 'laggy' by any means normally. I'd call it more semi-tight-honest-passive than anything.

call the 4 bet.

I'm guessing the OP's hand was really in the 30 game but thought he'd get more responses putting 80 in the title.
