Default Another 200/400 bellagio hand vs terri

full table 200/400. I'm up and nothing significant has happened. She's read the thread where I 3 bet her on the turn with that KJ and we've discussed the hand a couple times.

Fish limps in the CO. He's the loose passive semi-older rich businessman in for a 'fun time'.

I complete JTd in the sb, terri in the bb checks.

Flop T53 with a diamond. I bet, terri calls, fish folds.

Turn J non diamond. I bet, terri raises, I insta 3 bet, she quickly 4 bets...I?

Ugh, unless I'm missing something, you call and then you check-call the river. I'm curious if you considered checkraising the turn or did you go the bet-3-bet route just bc she's aggro.

Default 55 or 33 no preflop raise

This was my hand. It is not totally out of the question for me to raise with 55 or 33 here. 99.5% of the time I check my big blind here. The limper was a very bad player that never let go of anything, which makes the raise 100%, I will not raise.

This puts me on a set or two pair....does anyone really want to find out if you have top two. A re-raise will only make me fold the non-winning hand and call with the best.
Call down seems to be the only choice.

Regards,
Terri

the discussions you had w/ bk about his previous holdings re: agression on turn dont change anything in the dynamics here?

ive said a call down vs. raise is close and id lean towards 5, but that was based on an apparantly faulty assumption.

thoughts?

I play day by day. Mood of the table and opponents. I spoke to BK and we were friendly. I am not saying I would not misrepesent my hand, however, very unlikely now. I did believe I had the best hand.

I told him my thoughts on the hand the previous day. Almost all the time I would have him there. I knew he knew I knew he had a hand but, I knew it wasn't that strong and I tried to get him off the hand. I folded to the 3 bet that day (KJ hand).

I would 5 bet this. Two raggedy pair way more likely than a set.

Default Re: Another 200/400 bellagio hand vs terri

I think she's raising 55/JJ/TT preflop 3-way with fish. 33 I'm not so sure. Based on your KJ hand she knows that you will 3-bet somewhat lightly on the turn, which means she might be capping a little lighter than a normal good player. I think calling down is the play, but calling the turn and checkraising the river might be optimal if you can fold to a river 3-bet. Can you? I couldn't. Therefore, I'm calling down and expecting to win this a good majority of the time.

Why is top two disguised? JT is a hand people play the way he did. You think you're playing with kids here?

I really don't understand why people want to give top players all of this action.
