2 JTs Against Preflop Raise
Looking back at a few hands this session, found these two hands which were very similar. I played them both a little differently too. Funny how that works.
PokerStars 0.25/0.50 Hold'em (8 handed) converter Preflop: Hero is SB with J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. <font color="#666666">4 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">CO raises</font>, Button calls, Hero calls, BB calls. This preflop call is sketchy, but doable depending on the read of the raiser. Unfortunately, looking back at it, the raiser was a rock with TAG tendencies. Definately should have folded given that read. Bah. Flop: (8 SB) 5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font> <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, BB calls, <font color="#CC3333">CO raises</font>, Button calls, <font color="#CC3333">Hero 3-bets</font>, BB calls, CO calls, Button folds. I flop a flush draw, and given my relative position to the raiser, I decide to bet straight out. Hopefully the TAG will raise so I can three-bet. My pot equity is strong here so I decide to push it now. Turn: (9.50 BB) A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font> Hero checks, BB checks, <font color="#CC3333">CO bets</font>, Hero calls, BB calls. I miss, so I check. My equity here is about 28% so I'd need at least one more caller to make a bet profitable. River: (12.50 BB) 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font> Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">BB bets</font>, CO calls, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, <font color="#CC3333">BB 3-bets</font>, CO folds, <font color="#CC3333">Hero caps</font>, BB calls. I make my straight and decide to check-raise. BB, an unknown wakes up and decides to bet out. I have the nuts so I do not mind capping this for value. Final Pot: 21.50 BB --- Hand 2: PokerStars 0.25/0.50 Hold'em (10 handed) converter Preflop: Hero is MP3 with T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. UTG calls, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, UTG+2 calls, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, Hero calls, <font color="#CC3333">CO raises</font>, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, BB calls, UTG calls, UTG+2 calls, Hero calls. Standard methinks. Flop: (10.40 SB) 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(5 players)</font> BB checks, UTG checks, UTG+2 checks, Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">CO bets</font>, BB folds, UTG calls, UTG+2 calls, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, CO calls, UTG calls, UTG+2 calls. Flopped straight and flush draws. CO is to my direct left, so I decide to check-raise this for value. Turn: (9.20 BB) 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font> UTG checks, UTG+2 checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, CO calls, UTG folds, UTG+2 calls. No luck yet, but my equity right now is ~37%, so this is for value with even 2 players calling. River: (12.20 BB) 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font> UTG+2 checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, CO calls, UTG+2 folds. Standard. Final Pot: 14.20 BB |
