A hand I played against myself and myself

[B Dids]

Bored on vacation, I'm dealing a 4 handed hold 'em game featuring myself vs myself vs myself and myself.

I ended up with this hand, and I thought it was slightly interesting.

FWIW, I'd consider myself solid, aggro, and with a wide opening and 3-betting range, but a more conservative capping range. All the players know that the other ones are me too...

I'm in the SB with A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] Q [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], I'm also in the BB with utter rags. UTG I have A [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] T [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] and raise, on the button I find A [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] A [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] and 3-bet. The SB (with AhQh) caps, BB (with rags) folds, UTG and button call.


Flop is 6 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] T [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 7 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

SB (A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]Q [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]) bets, UTG (ATo) raises, Button (AA) 3-bets. SB calls, UTG calls.

Turn 3 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]

SB checks, UTG checks, Button bets, SB raises, UTG folds, Button calls.

River J [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

SB bets, Button calls.

I'm not sure I think the way I played any of the three hands, but I'm not sure I hate them. Your thoughts?

The only play I don't like is SB. Wouldn't a donk bet on the turn be nice? You know button has an overpair. Your bet on the turn looks like you're stopping a free card from either UTG or Button's flush draw.

UTG and Button played it fine IMO. Good fold by BB, too. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

UTG should strongly consider folding preflop rather than calling the cap.

SB should strongly consider donking the turn intending to 3-bet.

so you are capping AQ of hearts from SB against other solid aggro players..??

If I were button I think I would call flop raise and raise a non Heart turn and depending on the player fold to a 3-bet.

[B Dids]

Read what I wrote about myself, realize this is 4 handed, and think about it.

While you're doing that, I'm going to go cry about the forum split.

[Stinkybeaver]

When you are finished whining about the forum split. Then you can tell me just how often you have value in capping OOP with a marginal capping hand. though these players might 3-bet light I'd still like to see flop and go from there. Anyways preflop is not the most interesting.

the thing is that AA definately could take another line here as I mentioned, maybe you would like to comment that vs. your line

ATo should be folding the turn regardless of whether he's calling 1 or 2, and put serious consideration to folding the flop. AA should be folding the turn to the c/r.

Suppose SB has A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. Would it be worth it then to C/R the turn vs. a TAG? If not, is there a type of player where you would try it?

That's an obvious slowroll, and you've got zero redraws on a 3 to a straight 3 to a flush board. 3/6 isn't semibluffing territory, and this is easy.
