Fancy play syndrome - take two
On the river I'm very sure villain does not have a J, and I want it to look like I do. Is this a good play every now and again or just chip spewing?

Re: Fancy play syndrome - take two
I dunno, villain played the hand like I would expect many players at this level to play a jack. Of course, that wasn't your question, so disregard this at your leisure. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

Re: Fancy play syndrome - take two
I dont like it, its very likely that villain has a J.
I like it up until the river. |

Re: Fancy play syndrome - take two
I agree with other responders; this is exactly how weak players play a J. I guess he didn't have one given the tone of your post, but still risky.
That said, this play is a very big part of my game against weak players. It works much better when they make it clear that they don't have the trips i.e. betting out quickly into a paired flop with no draws possible. Against weak players this is almost 100% a pure bluff or two pair, and most weak players have learned that a call on the flop followed by a raise on the turn here means trips, and they tend to think for a while and proudly fold. |

All comments welcome. The Doc [/ QUOTE ] Are you trying to represent quad Jacks? Other than that hand, what could you possibly hold that you would have raised to $4 preflop with? AJ? I think this play is unlikely to work against a thinking opponent, but that doesn't mean that it would work quite a bit depending on competition. |

Re: Fancy play syndrome - take two
if the villian is the same guy as the last one then this play is so bad. You can't make moves forever. The only thing I could see being worse than that is if you were showing these
I hate any strategy that is always trying to make a play at a pot. I stay agressive but these double and triple barrel bluffs aren't really +ev I hate this play, you may have won but I still don't like it. Do you really need to do stuff like this to win at 50$ NL? |
