UTG is pretty tight/solid. SB is unknown but seems to be a bit of a donk from his first few hands. Better lines (I think I may have messed up all streets again)? River decision?

Bet the turn...that was a dream card for you. You have a very good chance to make him fold his overpair. You are beat, fold the river.

i'd block the river. as played, i think you shoudl call.

Why did you call the flop raise? Does a tight player really raise with overcards here?

TheWorstPlayer · #5 08-15-2005, 02:12 AM

I was thinking a ten or something like 99 or 88 since the preflop re-raise checked it could look like i was taking a weak stab at it. I don't know. I folded the river and think I screwed up preflop (I should re-raise), the flop (bet shoulda been bigger), and the river (I should block/fold).

this is probably the most diverse advice i have ever seen for a hand...according to us pretty much do anything on any street....

Given your read on UTG, flop is a fold. You've got two streets to go, with a weakish hand and no idea where you stand.

I wouldn't bet the turn, because it's unlikely you'll fold out an overpair. Sometimes AA/KK can be stubborn unless you're willing to a put a lot in. Not worth it imo.

River is an easy fold. There's a full house out there, and he's betting it. A tight solid player wouldn't do that without a ten or an overpair after that flop action.

pot the flop.

if tight player calls or raises be done with the hand.

It would be a better card if the opponent had a deeper stack. He actually doesn't have much left in relation to the pot size so it is unlikely he will fold a big PP.

I think once you call that flop raise your basically in it until the river (barring an AK turn and river), but I like the idea of just calling to keep the pot as small as possible. You have to call the river bet - the time for folding was on the flop. You could have bet a little on the river, but given the pot and stack sizes I'm not really sure it would have mattered.

A tight/solid player raises UTG, calls a reraise, then raises your flop bet on a ragged board. What range of hands are you putting him on that makes calling that raise a good idea?
