So here\'s a crappy spot.
The Button seems pretty much loose/passive, but only over a few hands.
Party Poker 1/2 Hold'em (6 max, 5 handed) converter Preflop: Hero is UTG with 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, Button calls, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>. Flop: (5.50 SB) 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, Button calls. Turn: (3.75 BB) J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, Button calls. River: (5.75 BB) Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">Button bets</font>, Hero folds. Final Pot: 6.75 BB What do you do differently? |

Re: So here\'s a crappy spot.
I'm bet/folding here. When you ck, he'll bet his QJ2pr and push you off the pot. I don't see him raising my river bet w/less than str8 here.

Re: So here\'s a crappy spot.
Villain is a passive 6 max-er? Hmm, probably only bets the nuts too. I hate those guys. They'll sit on Queens and call while you pound at them with your sixes. Then they crush you on the river with the set and you wish you had a cat to kick. My neighbors won't let their cat come over to visit anymore. My wife keeps the windows closed because the cursing wakes the neighbors.
I don't think I do it any differently. Just consider that you "only" lost 3.5 BB. |

Re: So here\'s a crappy spot.
I think you played this fine.
The only alternative line I would consider is check/folding the turn, and that doesn't seem too good as this kind of player will almost always peel a card off with two overcards on this flop. Once the river comes, you are pretty much dead against anything but a totally random hand and you can't put any more bets in. |

Interesting UTG raise.
I do not hesitate to think that even loose/passives might take this opportunity to bluff the river. Whether you are good often enough to call, however, is another story. I'd probably fire another one here, as I think button could be calling down with A high or other such garbage. |

[/ QUOTE ] I'm a bit out of practice with the 6-max game, but if I remember correctly, I think that a river check will be bet here by quite a few hands you beat, such as 2pr or a rivered Q, or even a complete bluff, just as often as it'll be a T or the flush. Basically, I think most 6-max players are going to be aggressive enough to try and take advantage of percieved weakness. -Jaran |

I'm confused, am I the only one who sees that Hero has 66 with 4 overcards on the board?
