What do you think of the line, esp the call on the river? Felt any limped aces wouldn't bomb river, all draws missed and the 2nd Q reduces combos of Qs in villains range significantly. I'd expect a smaller bet for value with a Q or A considering I'm unknown to villain.

V will have it more than 2/3 of the time so it's a fold for me readless.

Where did you pluck that number from?

you need to be correct 1/3 for a breakeven call..

You said villain will have it more than 2/3 of the time. How did you come to that conclusion?

By the action..Q pairing the board after you called the flop is a very bad card for V to bluff on so as I said readless he will have it very often, he might also show up with 22/88 it's not just Qs he's valuebetting

The Q isn't a bad card to bluff on! I give up. Can someone else comment please.

Duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuude when you call the flop with a player left to act you've got a Q or a fd, f/d bricked so why would he polarize his range by psbing when u fold all non A high f/ds and call all Qs? It really feels like you're acting stupid

Correct, I do have FDs and Qs but I also have small pocket pairs and pairs of 8s. Villain can bet river to get me off the latter hands with his bluffs.

This is the last time I'm going to respond to one of your posts.

ya I give up also I feel like I'm talking to a complete ******. Or well, maybe you are if you include pocket pairs in your range AFTER CALLING FLOP AND TURN

DecisionMade,
It seems like your decision about your line was already made, so I don't see why you posted it.

It was... which is why I called. I thought this was a check-up thread? I'd like people to find faults in the line, suggest a better line or verify the line but i dont want nonsense comments - "he's ahead more than 2/3 of the time" - wtf?

Edit: Alexo is on my ignore list. I know he was trying to help but I cant help get frustrated when people comment with silly posts.

I wrote a ****ing essay to help you understand since the short version didn't work for you, but of course since you think you have pocket pairs in your range after calling the turn you can't grasp any poker related concept

This is woeful logic for a few reasons. The Q is an excellent bluff card on the river because any AsXs, funky two pair combos being checked in the BB now lose to it, and villain has bet all three streets. Note the board means that middling aces are still losing to AT,AJ etc; any competent player putting hero on a range can bluff the river and expect a fold a reasonable amount of the time.

I find it ironic you're calling DecisionMade on 'acting stupid' yet seem to be pulling the '2/3' statistic out of your ass.

4 lines = 'a f****** essay'

this has been bugging the **** out of me since it happened:

shows ATo.

am I doing anything wrong by piling? do I have room to actually flat?

opener is a high level pro who has been abusing my BB since I've shown a propensity to fold it. flatter is a meh player who doesn't seem capable of anything crazy but doesn't seem too stupid.

immediately after he flats I assume he has a hand he's willing to fold, especially being the FT bubble.. even with his stack size. so I figure something along the lines of AXs, QTs, etc. But AT? Why is he not piling all day? anyone with a brain knows CO is opening extremely light in this spot... I guess I just want some general input here..

3bb utg with 98o in hotter tourney final 2 table (`18ppl) fold or get it in ATC the next hand ? always wondered for spots like this

Do we consider folding? ~100 left ~45k AVG, Bigger 33$ which starts 11:00, much softer than the the tournies later.

I guess we can fold if villain is the nit of the century (which he isn't), but otherwise I am not folding with these odds.

27 PKO

First hand at a new table. V is unknown and OPR doesn't say much. V has a $39 bounty and I have a $12 bounty.

Am I right to fold here vs a 30 BB shove?

i think QJo is a great hand to defend pre at this stack size (esp after the SB calls) against someone who's opening a wide range since we can happily gii on Q-high/J-high/OESD boards (as well as boards where we flop a gutter, though not as happily, ofc)

i am 100% folding here (unless villain is a preflop aggrotard of the greatest proportions)

Bet/f or c/c river ?

Hey guys. This is in the Big 55. Lots of action in front of us. Fold or call? Cheers

jungix - its fine to c/f river considering you block some missed stuff and he has lots of sdv in his range.

DEggs - i`d go with it if smth could tell me UTG+2 is a dolt.
