Re: Who folds this river? QQ top set
I would go ahead and raise this flop the first time around. The pot is huge and your hand is sorta vulnerable. I want to win this pot now. I also think it makes your hand a lot easier to play.
Button could raise AK here on the flop, but when it's two back to him you'll find out some information. (I know it's not the best reason to raise, but it's part of the package deal with a value raise). Granted, he'll still call with AK getting 10:1 (at least), but whatever. I dunno about the turn. Certainly there are hands he'll raise here other than AK? JJ certainly (3 combos), possibly AQ (after picking up a gutshot on the turn?), but that's sorta unlikely given that there's only one queen (4 combos). But let's cut that in half to 2 combos. I don't know if he 3-bets TT, so let's give that 1.5/3 combos. AK has 16 combos. There's also KK and AA. Both could play like this since he picked up a gutshot on the turn. There are 12 combos of KK and AA. Thus, there are about as many combos of hands that you beat and hands that you're behind. You can't fold, however, since you have 10 outs to a huge hand. On the river, CO comes to life on a weird card which could mean he has AK but who knows. I think that AA could play like this. CO sorta worries me, however. But given no reads we'll assume he's a donkey. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] I'd just call here. The pot is getting quite large and there are hands like AA, KK, and JJ that you beat and to which you would hate folding. edit- typed all this stuff out and forgot to recommend a line. I'd raise the turn for value. Betting the river is good. Raising the turn is good because there are 16 combos that beat you, and 18.5 combos that you beat. |

It's either AA KK or AK. I'd say it's even. And since the pot is offering much better than 2:1, you need to call this with absolute certainty. I'll take a stab and say you were shown KK by a by that time pissed off individual since he couldn't move you off your hand.

Three-bet the turn, bet the river.

Re: Who folds this river? QQ top set
normally I'd say this is an easy call, given the size of the pot. However, I think the river action makes the decision closer. The villain has been bet into on both the turn and the river, and both times he raised. I can't really see him doing this with AA or KK. In my mind he had AK or JJ.
AK = 16 combinations JJ = 3 combinations I also thought JJ was less likely since villain could have been playing a wierd AK, and I certainly could have QQ. Discounting JJ by half makes this a close call, discounting it by 2 makes it a close fold. I folded. Discuss. [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img] |

I've seen players do this with KK, AA, QJ, AQ, TT, 22, QT, etc. You can't give an unknown player so much credit, I think it will lead to a ton of bad folds. [ QUOTE ] If he caps the turn check call the river? [/ QUOTE ] Yep unless he boats up. |
