Re: How bad do I play?
What's your action if Villian checks the river?
After getting check-raised twice and led into, calling looks most viable. Folding is not an option, and raising just doesn't seem worth it here, because if you're beat, you're 3-bet and you're calling aren't you? |

In case you haven't ever played a game that I'm in, I've been known to be a little aggressive. According to PT my aggression factor is upwards near 4, right around 3.8ish.

You are an underdog, but with 12.25:1 pot-odds it's a call. To make a value bet on the river you need to win 55% of the cases when you get called. Here your chances are less than 50% (3:4) and you will always get called. He will not lay down a better hand. |

Re: How bad do I play?
hmm there's all sorts of reasons why villain might not cap the turn but bet the river with KQ if he thought he was up against AJ but the A falls which made AJ more unlikely? Or he wanted to try to get Hero to fold AK whilst he is representing a Jack himself - and also holding 2 pair anyway?
I'd think this is a fairly easy call. Some of the time you're losing to TT. Some of the time you'll chop with AK. Occasionally you'll beat KQ or a bluff. It would certainly be a brave laydown with a big pot like that, and raising seems like spewing given the number of hands you're behind. |

In fact he has been trying to get as many bets in as possible on every street. [/ QUOTE ] Why didn't he cap the turn? ~stephen |

It's HIGHLY unlikely I'm betting this particular river, but I've been known to do worse.

I'm actually a little surprised no one said anything about my bet and reraise on the turn. That's where I thought I played this hand badly. I'm behind most legitamite hands here and "hopefully" chopping the other times.
The river is an easy call. Anyway, I took the pot down. My opponent had A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] Thanks for all the responses. ~stephen |
