Default Commerce 9/18 hand -- AJ

My first real hand at this table, but I've been folding for an orbit or so. If anyone knows the 9/18, it's a pretty juicy game.

4 limpers to me in the SB with A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. I complete, and the BB checks. 6 to the flop for 6sb.

Flop comes T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. I check, and it checks to a fairly loose, marginally aggressive CO (last to act), who bets.

I raise.

Folded to the CO who 3-bets. I call.

Turn is Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. I check, he bets, I call.

River is K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. I check...

I agree but now that you hit the nut straight im partial for a donk bet here. Unfortunately you do not have any reads but this guy seems to like his hand and was aggresive with it on the flop I would give him the chance to raise you on the river so you can put a 3 bet out there

Im assuming any hand he bets out at the river he probably raises with on a board like that

I think this is the most questionable street. I'm getting 7:1 but I don't know how clean my pair outs are (I could be reverse dominated by AT or JT, he could have 2 pair, etc.), and the K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] is possibly tainted (though I don't put him on a flush draw when he declines the free card, and because his draw wouldn't be the nut draw since I have the A of trump). But if he has something like T9, I have 10 clean outs. Since I'm putting him on something better than T9, I'm thinking it's between 4 and 7 outs, maybe 6-ish. That makes the call pretty thin indeed.

I don't think the fold is very close at all. Your reverse implied odds are pretty bad imo.

If you're interested, I'd also c/r the river.

does this seem like a reasonable range for villian?

If so, your A and J outs have 60% equity vs this range. Your K outs should be worth 95%+(if they are worth less, your other outs are worth more).
1.8 outs for A
1.8 outs for J
4 outs for K
7.6 total outs, I call.

I think I prefer a bet, hoping to get in a 3 bet.

The problem now is that if he has something like AT (pretty likely, IMO) he is liable to check behind. If he does this only 50% of the time, you are breaking even in comparison to a bet, and that's assuming that he only calls when you bet -- when he raises you it's just gravy.

And it's very unlikely that he'll fold for a single bet.

I feel the same way. It's also possible that this is a busted flush draw now too. I don't think it would be unreasonable to see it played that way.

Also, I do think the turn is the most interesting street. I really don't think we have enough for a call there.

i wonder why everybody likes the flop. especially after the AK HU thread from QTip yesterday.

the raise on the flop offers only 3.5:1 odds and the AJ is not much of a hand to say the least.
