Default This Never Gets Old (Low Content) 5/10

Been running so well lately it's sick.

This may or may not be standard/borderline, let me have it.

Very tight, fairly predictable, solid nutpeddler (2.5K, me too) opens to 40 UTG, i call on co with 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].

A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]2[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (90)

He bets 40, i raise to 160, he takes his time calling.

K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (410)

He instachecks, I instacheck

4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (410)

He bets 200, I 800, He pushes.

yum.

Hey thats funny, I had a flop like that yesterday at Commerce that was virtually identical to that. Except I had 22 and the Villian who was by far the worst guy at the table had AA. He had $700 at a $100nl table and was still down for the day. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Villian had like $600 at the time and I only had $200. It was pretty easy to give that all away.

Fim, are you posting this hand as a joke? I know, you marked it low content, so possibly you're not holding this up as great play.

But seriously, I'd be very interested to hear your thought processes on this hand. Personally I don't like it PF and I don't like it on the flop. If you're getting long-term value out of those two moves I'd like to see an explanation as to why.

by my count fim put 200 in the pot with the worst hand, and 2300 with the best hand. certainly not a standard line, but if it ain't broke...

maybe i just say that cause I cracked KK yesterday with 3-5, but it was sooooooooooted!

People don't like the call pre-flop? It's 2% of his stack in position with a suited connector against a tight UTG raiser. Isn't this almost an auto-call?

The flop play is VERY interesting. If PFR's hand range is AA/KK/QQ/JJ/AK, will he believe that you have an ace or set of twos and dump all the non-ace hands? If not, can you bet him off the non-ace pairs with a bet on the turn? Also, with AA, will he call because a three-bet is likely to scare you off, with you likely drawing incredibly slim or dead? And with AK, he would fear a set. Therefore, it's entirely possible that Villain will not three-bet any hands here. That doesn't make the raise a great play, but with an inside straight draw and running flush draw, plus possible bluff equity... I don't know.

The turn is dangerous for you - AK becomes more confident, and KK picks up a set. QQ and JJ would definitely shut down here, and I don't know the EV calculations, but a bet seems like a terrible play.

And the river is, the river. Beautiful.
