Villian is a thinking LAG and probably sees me as a TAG.

Hero: $45
Villian: $35

Hero is UTG and Villain is in the CO.

I raise to $1.25 with black JJ, all folds, the Villian calls, and the blinds muck.

Pot is $2.85 going into the flop of:

8 9 2 rainbow

I bet $2, Villian raises to $6, Hero...

You call. The turn comes a 2 and the river comes a 9. What did villian have?

I would have called on the flop and pushed when that 2 came. Villain had 89.

#5 10-05-2005, 01:35 AM

villian would reraise with 89?

PoBoy321 · #6 10-05-2005, 01:36 AM

With top two on the flop? Why not?

Why is a call preferable? Villian will call any bet here, so why would you push when the two came, rather than get more money in on the flop? Do you think you're ahead or behind here?

yvesaint · #8 10-05-2005, 11:41 AM

because i have an overpair, and if villain is a 'thinking LAG', hes not going to call a 3-bet with just A9, unless 'thinking' means 'dumb'

an overpair = one-pair

and who says im pushing when the 2 comes? who says anything about a desire to get all-in with an overpair? you need to give us more info on Villain

The 2 makes it unlikely that he has bottom set and counterfeits top 2 pair.
