Re: 5-10 -- passive with an overpair
I can't say I would have played it any differently.
I don't mind the flop check, although I would bet it against certain opponents, but either way his position will force him to begin defining his hand on the turn. Turn good. Raise 2x his lead on river - he'll be hard pressed to fold hands like QJ or QA (maybe even QK, JJ, or TT) and may even reraise here with lesser boat holdings. As usual in NLHE, you have to suck it up with the 2nd nuts and be willing to go broke into quads here unless you know you're beat. |

Re: 5-10 -- passive with an overpair
Sorry. This is on-line. As you can see from the original post, I just sat down, so I don't have much to add on table dynamics.

Re: 5-10 -- passive with an overpair
Enough of the dopey flop discussion, that is beside the point.
My goal here is to get a call from a K and a 3-bet from a full house (or a big bluff). So I am going to make it look like i am dumb and I am raising my K for value. Bet $250. If you make a smallish overbet here, villain might make a "tough fold" with his K, and he might shrug and call with his JJ/QJ/etc. So, pushing is good too (sacrificing value from any K to get more from the bigger full houses), but I don't like a small overbet. The flop/turn action looks fine. -muz |

Re: 5-10 -- passive with an overpair
I bet flop, check turn. He's gotta fear AK, this way you take control of hand and excercise pot control.
Anyway on River, I push, maybe a smaller boat, k calls. Bottom lines, he thinks his small bets have lured you in. Let it work, you've been "suckered" into stealing from him. |

Re: 5-10 -- passive with an overpair
It looks like a number of people thought that an overbet was a good idea. I wasn't deep enough to make the distinction between a small overbet and push meaningful, so I pushed. In retrospect, I think that it was a bad idea. By the time I get to the river, I should have been able to put Villain put Villain on AK, KQ, KJ or KK. Flop check and weak lead on the turn would be a pretty funky line for Villain with QT, QJ, TT or JJ.
After I push, Villain lets his time bank run down and types in "AA?". I start braying like the donkey that I am, and he folds. Needless to say, I have a bad feeling that I pushed him off a K. |
