AA party 2/4

emil3000 · #1 09-18-2005, 05:45 PM

I have been playing slightly laggy, nothing really crazy, but quite a bit of openraising. I reraised villains button raise from BB, he folded and remarked that he didn't like having another sLAA at the table. So apparently he considers himself SLAA, but he seems quite solid to me by 6max standards. He also said he has 400 hands on me, so he uses pokertracker. So far he has shown a bit of resistance to my raises, but it has been of the passive kind.

Check behind, call river.

Thought about checking behind, and I do it a lot. All the draws convinced me to bet. In my mind it's pretty close, no?

Looks like he wants to win the pot on the turn, I put him on a J.

Call the raise, and see his river play. I'm probably calling a moderate river bet.

Ah, did not notice that.

Would a 9 really try to push you off your hand? There seems to be no value in this raise of his.

It's pretty close, but once you bet the turn I believe its correct to fold.

What draws? There's a flush draw, that's about it, unless this guy is calling raises with QT or T8. The fact that the board paired means anyone with a J only has two outs, so you don't even have to worry about some sort of two pair on the river. On top of that, this guy is lag and views you as lag. He'll bet the river often with missed draws to get you to fold A high, and he might also make a big move on this turn with or without a 9.

im pretty late on this thread, noticed it from the digest, but this isn't a good time for pot control

whether to call the c/r is completely opponent dependant, but given it's 5handed and it's party calling is fine.
