Question for Riverboatking
I was reviewing one of your past hands, and I was hoping to get your thought process. I'll give the action, but not the opponent's cards or results so others can follow along. Anyway, I appreciate if you can share what's going in your head as I was quite baffled. Any insight you have is appreciated.
Thanks, Garland Location: Bicycle Casino Players: Kim (undetermined stack amount) -- ok passive tightish player Frank ($6175)-- tricky trapping tightish player Riverboatking (covers) –- Loose aggressive thinking player, definitely a winner in this game Stakes: $10/$20 NL Preflop action: Kim calls, Frank calls, Riverboatking raises to $125 on button with A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], blinds fold, Kim calls, Frank calls. Flop (pot = $405): J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] Kim checks, Frank checks, Riverboatking bets $400, Kim thinks, but Frank has a tell that he’s going to call, so Kim folds. Frank calls. Turn (pot = $1205): J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] Frank checks, Riverboatking bets $900, Frank calls.

That is awesome. [/ QUOTE ] Uh, no. Player A bets 1/3 pot on the river after betting/getting called on flop & turn. Player B check-raises all in. Player A calls w/A high. I don't see how that is awesome. |

Re: Question for Riverboatking
so riverboat obv thinks frank has 2 unpaired cards lower than a J ....there has to be some read he has that we cant see, of course, riverboat is playing live with him, and there must be some sort of history with the two. Tc8c? or did riverboat pick something up earlier that would give some sort of hint that frank was going to pull off a multi-street bluff?

Re: Question for Riverboatking
He called a pot sized check/raise on river with AK hgih.
Assuming he had good reasoning behind this play, and thought that he was likely good... that's pretty awesome. |

Re: Question for Riverboatking
Pretty sick call, but unless you are aking the most insane value bet ever, why not just check river? If he called the big CR he obv. believes he has alot of showdown value, so why put yourself in a spot where you might make a really bad call. If you really put villan on nothing, a bet will geenrally just get a fold, so unless he planned to induce a bluff and call, I think checking river makes alot more sense.

Re: Question for Riverboatking
Perhaps his AK high was good. And maybe he had some great read live that led him to believe it was. More power to him if he was right.
However, my point was that if this hand had been posted just by some random person, and the last line was asking what hero should do on the river after being check/raised, just about everyone would say fold. |

Re: Question for Riverboatking
I think the most interesting question is, was the river a bluff that turned into a value bet-call?
