all reads are based on less than 30 hands. so as good as no reads. UTG plays pretty tight, but seems to be willing to fold post-flop (no call downs yet). MP is very loose and either goes crazy or folds on the turn, nothing in between.

i know this looks like it worked out. i just want to know if it's standard or read dependent.

obviously the river helped the guy which caused him to go crazy. but in general, is this good?

I like it. What would your plan be if he called the turn? Are there any cards that fall on the river that you would bet?

cdxx · #6 08-19-2005, 05:22 AM

tough question... in hand 1, i honestly think that he is convinced that i have AA-JJ, and folds his AJ. so, i probably bluff bet any card except a jack.

I like the play in hand 1. With regard to your comments, I would be real suprised by anyone folding top pair in this game on that board. I think it much more likely he has a pair smaller than yours, or running a semi-bluff on that raggedy board with overcards and position.

In hand 2, I very very rarely like checking in these situations. It definately takes special circumstances. Given the read:

I think you could have won more by just betting the flop -- those rags are just the sort of flop where he might like to take a shot at you. Also, checking the flop here looks mighty suspicous - even to players you have no respect for - and can inhibit action.

When players check the flop in these situations, I tighten up considerably, because it screams "MONSTER".

I don't see him folding AJ in hand one.

Hand one seems good. No way he folded a better hand though. Hand two seems okay given the fact the villain will overplay marginal hands. Against a decent opponent though just bet the flop. It's far less scary than a flop check after a PF raise HU.
