WSOP Circuit LIVE - $365 Buy in.

Stack: Eff stack is mine at 6400. (V has about 10k starting stack as it is early).

Hero Image: Its level 2 and I've been playing pretty TAG. I got sucked out a few mins back AK vs AJ and lost 4 k or so in that hand.

V image: 35yr old Asian guy. Seems fairly active. HAs not showed down a whole lot yet but seems to be in a decent amount of pots.

Blinds: 75-150

Pre Flop: V raises UTG+1. HERO calls on BTN with 8T. BB calls.
POt = 1300

Flop: 662

BB checks. V bets 800. Hero calls. BB folds.

Pot= 2900
Turn: 4
V bets 1100. Hero calls.

Pot= 5100
River: 9
V bets 3000 (I had about 3k and change left)...

This is a hand where I wanted to mix up my play a bit and speculate in position. I felt that my hand would be somewhat disuised throughout and if I hit I could get doubled up thru this V if had what he was repping. Regardless of results...is this a hand I should not be involved with IYO?

I don't mind playing these kinds of hands in position either, from time to time. Pre is fine.

Turn and river are kind of auto-calls because of the good odds turn and getting what you were looking for on the river. Given the action though, you're not always ahead...
