Re: *The Official "Standard, yes?" Checkup Thread*
this looks like a retarded amount of action with TP2K but you're the one who played 100 hands with this dude 4-handed.
edit: meh, i guess the river does pull us ahead of a couple hands (AA/KK/96) but this dude's stats look pretty passive and fit/fold so i think the flop->turn line is pretty srs bzns.
Re: *The Official "Standard, yes?" Checkup Thread*
He's not really fit fold, at least that's not what i gathered, and I don't think the stats tell me that as much. He has aggression that goes up as the streets go on. I also think he is going to have a wider range out of the BB, because it's just calling. Turn raise was pretty scary. Also, aren't like 8c6c type hands in his range as well? or od you not think as much?
Re: *The Official "Standard, yes?" Checkup Thread*
i think aggression increasing street-over-street is like the classical statistical signal for fit/fold but i'm not sure and maybe this newfangled AFq bull**** sorts that out. intuitively it seems like something is going on with this guy since i'm pretty sure my aggression decreases street-over-street.
you can have 86 if it makes you feel better. i'm sure that one combo really swings the needle on this decision.
if i 3! the flop and get c/r on the turn by a dude playing 40/2 at 4-handed .05/.1, i am ****ing terrified -- i am not putting him on some combo draw that he is cunningly exploiting by semibluffing you on multiple streets.
but again, this should be entirely read-based. you've had plenty of time to get an idea of what this cat is up to.
Re: *The Official "Standard, yes?" Checkup Thread*
Okay, a lot of limping was going on at this 6max table even with Ax. Preflop I decided to overlimp and go for the flush potential because I knew I'd get some limpers behind me.
I was going to jam the flop with the nut flush + gutshot straight draw but only ended HU with one guy.
On the turn should I elect to take the free card or do I bet? The guy was a little on the laggy side but I'm sure he had a piece of the flop.
Re: *The Official "Standard, yes?" Checkup Thread*
I think betting here is good, because I don't see a reason should really think he has a piece of this flop, further I think with a A/spade/4 we win the pot, and with a 5, we might even win the pot. A-hi also has some value, so i bet because we are pretty close to having enough equity, if we don't.
Re: *The Official "Standard, yes?" Checkup Thread*
a_schu,
yes.
doc,
if villain is "on the laggy side but I'm sure he had a piece of the flop" then you should check. my default in this spot is to bet again, planning to check river ui.

Why not? If the SB just completed and then bet on a FD/SD type board and just called the flop and checked turn, could he just have a draw that he is scared to play? he is on the laggier side, but not super laggy....
Re: *The Official "Standard, yes?" Checkup Thread*
a_schu: This does seem like you gave too much action at some point in the hand; I think probably on the flop. 100 hands, reads on what villain c/r flop with? How he's played a draw HU in past? etc.
Against only 19% flop agg%, though, I'd be a little concerned with just tpgk; might just call his raise.
As played on flop, turn is obv standard. Just calling trips on river would be a bit weak-sauce given the frush missed, so that street is probably standard too.
Flop might be marginally over-aggro, but it's close.
Doc: As a default I'd probably raise this pf, but it's not mandatory.
I probably barrel again against most villains and hope to get the occasional better Ax to fold or equity protection by folding UI xx mid-high cards (or alternately get value if the latter calls). Check back river UI.
If you know is a decent player who isn't going to fold better UI Ax, just check back turn.
