KK - overpair hell

Isura · #1 12-01-2005, 10:37 AM

Hand 1: Player had 47/20 stats after 60 hands, but no other reads. No reads for the other two hands. I felt like I couldn't raise anywhere in hand 1, but I guess most can find a fold on this river? Hand 2 just felt gross. Thoughts?

Hand 1 - I fold that turn.
Hand 2 - I probably come over the top of that flop raise and then drop to further agression...surely he didn't spike a gutshot on that turn though.
Hand 3 - reraise the flop or at least raise the turn...fold to further agression.

Hand 1: The pot is relatively small so I could find it in myself to call but mucking the turn seems much better.

Hand 2: Why bother calling the min-raise on the flop? If I had the K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] I'd continue.

Hand 3: Why not raise the turn & muck to a river lead?

Hand 1: Bet nearer pot size on this flop. I probably would have called on the river too, but I really cant think of any hands you are beating. If villain had AJ/QQ then he sure played it strangely. J9s is the only other hand I can really think of.

Hand 2: Youre behind most of the time here, and I'm not sure how much you'll pay to find out for sure, so I'd fold.

Hand 3: Why not raise the turn?

Cheers!

What is villain's most likely hand in the 3 situations?

[/ QUOTE ]

Hand 1: Any 7x, possibily a flush
Hand 2: I won't say a straight but how about two pair 56, 69, etc?
Hand 3: QJ, KJ, AJ,

On Hand 2, isnt folding an overpair to the minraise on the flop a little weak? Surely then you are a semi-bluff minraisers dream opponent. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

What the hell is Villain doing in hand 3?? Minimum check-raise on the flop, then $2 into a $16 pot on the turn? Anyone think QT? I like raising the turn here.

1) I kinda like how you played this but it's probably -EV. You are most likely behind and without the K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] it sucks even more.

2) Yuk. I am not sure on this one. Folding the flop seems weak but then again the turn card is an ugly one too.

3) I 3-bet the flop here.

Okay, all 3 of these hands were weird IMO.

Hand 1: Player seemed quite laggy, so I thought my hand was still good on the turn. River is probably a fold though. Villain shows T9 for the rivered straight.

Hand 2: We were fairly deep stacked, so I guess I could have called down from the flop without losing my whole stack. But I'm going to hate so many turn/river cards this plan kind of sucks. I guess folding or reraising are my only decent options on the flop. Villain showed QQ and I typed "nh, good enough" in the chat. [img]/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img]

Hand 3: Weird hand. The betting sequence was so weird I put him on the nuts or absolute air. Villain shows A5o and I take it down.
