10/25 live game...deep stacked
Hi all...I played in a 10/25 live game this weekend and thought I'd share some interesting hands.
Effective stack sizes are around 3-5k. Hand #1 Villain is an older man...super nice guy and mowing the table over at this point. He has around 20k in front of him and has absolutely no fear of putting a bunch of chips in the pot with a strong hand or nothing at all. Hero has 10K at the start of the hand is dealt 4 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]5 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] on the button. Folded around to villain in late position who raises to $125. Cutoff calls as do I. Flop:7 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]7 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]5 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] Villain checks as does the cutoff. Hero bets $300. Villain calls, cutoff folds. Turn:Q [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] Villain fires $600. Whatever the river is, I know villain is betting at least 1-2k based on his betting patterns from earlier hands. Do I see a river. What's your line here? Hand #2 UTG straddles for $50. Two limpers call as do I with 7 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]7 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] on the button. Small blind(2K) makes it $300 straight. Rest of the table folds. There is about $200 of dead money in the pot plus the raisers $300 raise...which makes $500. Do I have odds to call for a set? |

Hand 1, check behind on flop.
Hand 2, I would often put in a big raise w 77 OTB and limpers in a straddled pot. As played, you need to tell us if you're getting all of his money if a 7 flops. Also, could he be doing this w 55 or AJ? Lots of laggros would. |

If a 7 flops and he has an over pair I get it all. |

Hate the check behind in hand 1. Unless you are doing this to raise any turn bet on a bluff.

Re: 10/25 live game...deep stacked
When super laggros raise PF and then check a flop like that, i no like.
Is that the flop you guys were looking for w 45? You like our hand a lot right now? You want to play a biggish pot on that flop? I don't, and we're not taking it down here. |

[/ QUOTE ] I dont look for flops, I look for situations. Here, you have a pair on a paired low board where the pfr has checked OOP. The pot has ~15bbs in there, I want it. If Laggro raises 7x and checked it, good for him, he gets to win a flop bet. By checking, we're surrendering our rite to the pot, as well as giving cards where we have no idea what can hurt us. [ QUOTE ] You like our hand a lot right now? [/ QUOTE ] I like our situation, sure. It's a profitable bet. [ QUOTE ] You want to play a biggish pot on that flop? I don't, and we're not taking it down here. [/ QUOTE ] This is where we disagree, I guess. First, when you bet the flop, if called, you're building the pot. But it doesnt mean you're going to showdown. Second, I *do* think we're taking it down enough to warrant betting. |
