A fancy play I make against certian players. How stupid?

I just love this! (But then I'm a degenerate gambler...) /v

So just to clarify, are you saying fold pf or jiust smooth call? Situations like this have been puzzling me lately

In blind wars against an aggressive opponent, you really should be calling with any playable hand.

I'm bad HU, so I don't know. raising just seems wrong. if you call he's going to raise, so I don't know fi that's better. personally, I'd fold because I know I won't play it well

exactly, this is something you told me at a 2p2 table and ive definitely tightened up against aggressive players in hte SB. definitely +EV

Disregard my post, I thought hero was the BB, where its an easy call.

J9o is mathematically better than 50% of our villians possible holdings, doesnt this make it a blind steal hand?

feurinho78 just sat down and posted the BB.
He is a 59/37/2.45 and he likes to push me around.

Funny. He likes to push me around too and I'm 23/16/2.5. Maybe it's not just us. Maybe he plays like that against everyone.

[ QUOTE ]
That's true. This is an easy fold PF without my super sneaky plan to check-raise the river no matter what.

[/ QUOTE ]

Are you saying that you planned to c/r the river BEFORE entering preflop?? That seems like a HUUUGE parlay IMO especially against this type of opponent.

[ QUOTE ]

This player is a good hand reader, very agressive, and will put you to the test every hand.

[/ QUOTE ]

If he's such a good hand reader, aren't you afraid he will spot your bluff?

[deepsquat]

slightly O/T here but when an aggro opponent like this has position against us in the BB are we better off completing our marginal hands that we may raise with vs tighter opponents?

Basically is the startegy to be completing here with hands like J9o that we dont want to be 3bet with but are too strong to fold?

That's right. One the river the pot will be 7BB so he only has to fold 22% of the time and I show a profit.

I guess (like all other problems) it's just a question of how often he will fold the river.

Hopefully he spots the slowplayed K or two pair. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

unfortunately, nothing in this game is that simple. position is very important against this type of player
