I think you gave up way too quickly.

Re: A Hand That Made Me Happy and Sad and Maybe Happy Again...
One thing that makes opp's turn three bet less scary is villain will have a harder time putting you on a set with no Broadway cards out. It looks like you have a big Ace, so the chance he has AK are higher. Anyway I agree you could put in 1-2 more on the later two streets.

[ QUOTE ]
With what I've seen of this opponent, he's somewhere in the sane-passive-reasonable area. I think that on the 6th BB we are absolute toast, personally. If we cap the turn, lead the river, and get raised, are we ever winning? [/ QUOTE ] No - I think you played it well. Some people are aggressive enough to 3-bet this turn C/R with AK, lots of people including me aren't. If you had a read that he was in the latter category, I say good for you. I would think the 3-betting standards in these HU 10/20 duels are a little more liberal though, but I dunno... |

Re: A Hand That Made Me Happy and Sad and Maybe Happy Again...
Yeah this hand sucked. Thanks for the advice. I think I've realized a couple things:
1. As for play on the flop and the turn, I think there are a variety of different possible routes to take, including: check-call flop, donk turn; bet flop, bet turn; and check-raise flop, check-turn. Bet flop, screwplay turn is really not one of them. I allow the turn to get checked through, and possibly give villain an easy chance to fold. I don't really like a flop check-raise here (or a check-raise anywhere, really) because I think a tightish villain will often find easy folds with KK and QQ if I check-raise. I think my preferred line is probably check-call flop, donk turn. 2. The best number of bets to go to on the turn and the river is 5. I really think 6 BB is too much, because any scenario that gets to that number (I cap flop, bet river and get raised; I call turn three-bet, check-raise river and get three-bet) indicate I'm up against AA a large majority of the time. With this in mind, I think I should have called the turn three-bet and donked the river, calling a raise. That assures 4-5 BB go in on the last two streets, and doesn't risk letting only 3 go in or letting 6 go in. Thanks for the comments. Not that it's significant but villain tabled AA. |
