whiff

Okay, what do u guys do here. Normally I bet this flop, but CO was a pretty aggressive lag, maybe I should have bet to get him to raise the field, dunno I was going to value, but then everyone folded. what do u think (all streets)?

I was also pretty sure this river was getting checked behind. Still felt like I took the wrong line, dunno.

hey, good read. if you bet, raised, and put HU, it would have blew soooo much. sometimes we want a C/R for value and not enough people join the party, it happens.

nice hand

Yeah, pretty easy c/r for value there, and everyone that folded sucks. Guess it is hard to stick around if you don't have a king where there's two on the board.

"Pretty aggressive lag" <> "will bet a paired, two-tone flop for me." I bet this flop, and take the chance on the LAG raising and facing the field with 2. If it's been obvious that he's a LAG, then his raise may distract everyone from my bet, too.

with your reads it looks good. I'da probably bet the flop to try and trap CO for one or check raised and led turn.

oreogod · #6 08-23-2005, 07:50 PM

so if I have no reads, everyone pretty much agrees this is a flop bet, correct?

Yeah, to bad everyone folded, I was going to for a sweet CR, oh well.

I dont think that there are too many hands that are going to bet this flop. A King, 3 or pocket pair are the most likely hands that will bet.

I think that you may as well have bet the flop yourself, instead of hoping that CO would bet it. That would also have given you some semi-bluff value by representing the K if no one else had it.

You had to check the turn.

I think that you may have had a good chance of a check/raise succeeding on the river. Normally I would value bet the river with the likely best hand.

However, in this hand you have been calling the whole way to showdown, while button was betting. So I think there was probably a reasonably good chance that button would bet the river if you had checked.

Looks fine.

Did you lose your bankroll to drugs or something?

I think it's another bankroll rebuilding project.

No. Ive never had to rebuild a bankroll. I basically hand .95 cents in pokerstars from way back when on my first intial deposit...came back to it 7 months later, just for shits and giggles building up another one.

My usual limit is 5/10. But Ive been getting killed lately...(pokergrader has my luck at -25 the past two weeks). So sometimes I turn into a giant vagina.

AK-AJs are all losers in PT. AA has 25 percent win raite. KK 50 percent, QQ 45 percent. Pretty sucky, 2-3 outers galoure, not that I mind, just brutal.
