A flush draw that includes the J is very possible ,your check shows weakness and he may think his jack is good, KJs wouldnt suprise me...
He may even be waiting to bang you on the turn with a hand like AK....

range....
KJs, QJs, Axs

I'm pretty sure kjs and qjs would've 3 bet preflop.

He could call the flop with a ton of hands here planning to blow you off something using the Ace. I would probably oblige him by betting turn and calling down if raised. The way you played it I think I'd bet/call the river.

pretty sure as a read on this guy, or just in general? I hope to hell your not 3 betting qj or kj preflop, the gap concept can be a valuable tool around 10/20

KJ is an easy 3-bet preflop in a blind battle. QJ is situationally dependent, I call more often than I reraise though.

This is sb vs bb. The gap concept doesn't really apply especially considering that KJs and QJs are much better hands than my opening range from the sb. He already has position and can have initiative if he wants it which he probably will because he's a typical 10/20 LAG.

Can someone explain for me what you mean by the gap concept?

zimmer879 · #9 12-09-2005, 02:51 PM

basically the idea that you need a better hand to call a raise with than you need to raise yourself.
