Re: Overplaying small overpair? live 5-3-2
Although the bb is $5 the game is usually loose and astandard raise is a bit higher--around 30 to 35 if you want most to fold.
You hit it spot on though--he had KK and I shouldn't have rr. He thought I had aces is why he played it slow, and he was trying to move me off "my aces" with the river bluff. I wasn't trying to rep aces, but his comment and of course the showdown when I saw it made me think I overplayed. I guess this line (with Jim's modification of closer to pot sized bets to outprice draws) would have been ok if if our seats were shifted 4 seats back?--He opens MP/late MP and I play this from CO/button? Thanks for the feedback all. Greg |

Re: Overplaying small overpair? live 5-3-2
The villain bet some really small fraction of the pot. Its smells like a blocking bet from a big pair. If you hadn't reraised, I'd suggest a raise all-in on the end. The villain will have to muck his bigger overpair most of the time. As it is I guess I fold. You've shown lots of strength, reraising an utg raiser and then raising flop and betting the turn. Every draw has hit so if he was playing something goofy it got there. The only hand you beat is a loosely played 88 and most people don't raise that utg.
Smooth call preflop. It gives you more options. |

Man, I don't play 10 handed often enough.

[ QUOTE ]
What's the blind structure - is BB $5 - is his raise 4x bb? That's what I read it as and assumed $20 would be a standard open [/ QUOTE ] If he's playing at Lucky Chances like I think, then an limp open is the sum of the blinds, which is $10, and therefore $20 would be a mini-raise open. It is a weird open for $20 with KK, but against a solid opponent, I would also smooth-call only with TT. Garland |

[ QUOTE ] Can/can't call that river?--felt suspicious. [/ QUOTE ] "Must" call the river. [/ QUOTE ] "MUST" CAll, there are at least $920 , you need to put $160 : $920 ~1:6 odd. if he bet $400 or more, I think you should fold... for his weak bet at river, I am sure that he would like to see the cheap shown down... |
