5/10 Representing Quads

[Mens Rea]

I'm putting you on clubs, or a weak 7.

And I'll take 2-1 to find out.

[captZEEbo1]

this is a good river to do a smallish bet to get draws higher than yours to fold. If you are allining here, I am calling you with any boat as a hole heap of draws missed.

What exactly made you try this move against this guy? Any reads? What was your plan on the river if a brick hit, like a ten?

I'm not sure I follow here, it certainly looks like you're going to get called.

I think you can bluff for less

Iv never had success representing quads. Idiots keep calling, and I keep having nothing.

As I said villian is (typical) solid, not a bad player. I felt I could pull it off against a decent player. If a brick hit, I was check/folding.

Villian folded 22 (I believe him by his chat). I guess I was lucky that he had the low boat.

...or top boat. Villian is typical solid 5/10r. Pretty straightfoward.

wow...without reading the others posts yet, I have to say I HATE this push. If you really had quads, you woulda bet less. If I'm the villain, the 3rd 6 is a great card for me! Easy call for him.

Holy cow! That's about as perfect a hand for the villain to have (for you) as you could hope for. But he doesn't read you for quads, he reads you as either having the 7 or a PP. You're very lucky...if he had the 7, he calls this in a heart-beat.

Obviously not, if everyone is gonna call with just a 2.

I agree.

Taking a pause and leading for 1/3-3/4 pot on river is scarier than pushing all in.
