Head scratcher..
PokerStars 0.05/0.10 Hold'em (8 handed)
Preflop: Hero is MP1 with Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. UTG calls, UTG+1 calls, Hero raises, MP2 folds, CO 3-bets, Button folds, SB calls, BB folds, UTG calls, UTG+1 folds, Hero calls. Flop: (14 SB) 5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="blue">(4 players)</font> SB checks, UTG checks, Hero bets, CO raises, SB calls, UTG folds, Hero calls. Turn: (10 BB) Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="blue">(3 players)</font> SB checks, Hero checks, CO bets, SB calls, Hero raises, CO 3-bets, SB calls, Hero caps, CO calls, SB calls. River: (25 BB) 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="blue">(3 players)</font> SB checks, Hero checks, CO bets, SB folds, Hero calls. Final Pot: 27 BB Now what did that CO have? <font color="white"> A2h. WTF he raised preflop with A2 of hearts and caught a flush on the flop!!! This is a great time to start bitching about fixed software </font> Looking back on my play, possibly shouldve capped preflop, but Queens scare me when raised behind - especially out of position, and the cap on the turn was horrible after I all but showed him the Q set and he didnt care. I wanted to fold on the river, but with the pot size what it was, well you know. Comments |

Re: Head scratcher..
It didnt matter if he held A2 hearts or AK hearts. He hit the flush.
I might have capped preflop. I like how you played the flop turn and river. I most likely would have bet the river so I would have lost one more big bet. The only mistake I see is that you didnt fill up. [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img] |

Hero has been raised on every single bet he has thrown out including the proverbial show of power...i.e. the turn check-raise. It looks very obvious the villian has the flush. I would check call the river here. I think the hero played this hand marvelously despite the outcome. I even agree with calling the 3 bet rather than capping PF although I think that is more game dependent and prolly doesn't matter too much either way. |

The villain could also have had A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]J [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] and played it as strong.
I believe hero capped the the turn. |

However, even though hero capped the turn, he did so after check-raising and being 3-bet. To me that smells of a made flush although I agree an aggressive player could play A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]J [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] that way |

Re: Head scratcher..
At low-limit online poker, I can't imagine CO not haveing a hand that beats our hero. At least, not often enough for me to want to bet the river.

Re: Head scratcher..
I would have folded when bet to on the flop - nobody has suggested this - would that be a bad play?

Re: Head scratcher..
I bet river too, if they only have Ah, they play it the same...
