Weak Tight you say Mikel?

[PokerBabe(aka)]

The recent post by mikel where he talks about being "weak tight on the river lately" made me think about this hand to talk about.

30-60 Bellagio dayshift. Babe is on the button vs. solid playing Black guy. HEY, the fact he is Black is irrelevant but used here only for descriptive purposes.

Local "loaded" lady limps 2UTG. Folded to black guy who is in the c/o. Black guy raises and I 3 bet with offsuit kings from the button. Local loaded lady calls and Black guy calls.

Flop is 7 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]10 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]2 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. Checked to me and I bet. Turn is 7 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. Checked to me and I bet. Local loaded lady now folds.

River is J [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]

Black guy checks and I check.

how often do you think he pays you off with 99 or 88? mathematically 4 times as likely he has those hands over JJ so you have to be pretty sure he won't pay you off

He NEVER ever pays me off with 99 or 88 here.

And that has nothing to do with the fact that you never, ever, ever bluff on the river?

No offense to you babe, but that is why your style is sub-optimal. do you know how hard it is to win when you have to have an overpair against his overpair. and he is just calling? granted, you probably play live, in vegas or la. where their are just absolutely horrible players (in those mid-limit games), who never catch on.

Good check and all.....

Pokerbabe.. if you are not making this bet you need to move WAY down in limits.. I hope this is a joke. Although i have listened to you on "Live at the Bike" and your lack of value betting wouldn't surprise me..

While this might not have been her proudest moment, I can assure you Pokerbabe does not need to move down in limit. She does quite well in the games she plays in, thank you.

Hi Andy,

Nice to see you, as always. I do so dig those new glasses you got. They are MAD COOL as leon would say. [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img] Actually, this was my "proudest moment" because I saved myself 60 bucks that I can use toward that dinner I owe you.

Let's do it next time you are in town.
