An interesting 6max hand with another 2+2 at the table.(HC or NC)
Cleaning a bonus and I'm at a 6-max table with fellow 2+2'er TomBrooks. Table is basically loose-passive.
Villian in this hand is TomBrooks. Party Poker 0.50/1 Hold'em (6 max, 6 handed) converter Preflop: Hero is BB with T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP raises</font>, CO calls, Button calls, SB calls, Hero calls. Easy call here. Flop: (10 SB) 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(5 players)</font> SB checks, <font color="#CC3333"> Hero checks</font>,MP bets, CO folds, Button calls, SB calls, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, MP calls, Button calls, SB calls. I was thinking of betting out to reduce the field, so I have more outs if I hit my hand if Tom just has AK here, but I decide to check to him and see if I should call or raise (for +EV). Well, the whole table called, so I c'r. Turn: 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font> SB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, MP calls, Button folds, SB folds. Turn pairs the top card and brings me more outs in spades. I figure to continue with the aggression. I almost checked here. River: (10 BB) 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, MP folds. Final Pot: 11 BB Double paired board, only 1 way to win and a high likelyhood that he has AK/AQ or has a higher pair then the board (semi-likely) Discuss [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] |

Flop, meh. Thing I dislike about check/raising here is it's awkward when you have to check the turn to them and announce your hand. Turn bet seems like it should be good but I don't love your chances of taking it down. River bet is good I suppose, but I don't necessarily like Tom's turn call (or flop bet).

[/ QUOTE ] Flop, I think is standard because it's the most +EV play. Even if Tom 3 bets, and get's it HU between him and I, it seems like a fine play. I really don't mind announcing my hand when/if I check the turn. Most of the time, it doesn't matter. Turn bet, I was thinking it was for value since I improve to a straight/flush 30% and they might all call again. Once the river was just HU and it double paired, I figured he'd lay down every A and a higher pair (again unlikely) |

I like your play. Vnh. The river bet is maybe the weakest but it worked so... It is a great example though for ppl to reconsider folding too often to a river bet when HU in a big pot.
