Nine handed at the Wynn.
I start the hand with $4000 and everyone covers me.
FlirtyKorean straddles to $20. Hijack calls.
I have J
9
in the cutoff and I call $10 after having already posted $15.
BaseballJeff raises to $80. FlirtyKorean calls. Hijack calls.
I 3-bet to $480. BaseballJeff tank-folds. FlirtyKorean calls. Hijack folds.
FLOP ($1140, 2 players): A
8
4
FlirtyKorean checks. I think for five seconds and check.
TURN ($1140, 2 players): 7
FlirtyKorean checks. I think for about fifteen seconds and bet $300. FlirtyKorean quickly calls.
RIVER ($1740, 2 players): 6
FlirtyKorean thinks for about seven seconds and bets $2000. =( I tank-fold.
FlirtyKorean is an Aria 5/10 reg. I've seen him go for thin value with pot-sized bets at least twice (which confused me and caused me to pay him off light at least once). I don't think I've ever seen him bluff.
BaseballJeff is live pro who is fond of large preflop sizings, and his small raise here is what set me off. I assume he's raising really light here because it looks like there's so much dead money in the pot.
I was planning on betting $550 on the river, if FlirtyKorean checked.
Posting this to BBV because the thread usually gets insta-locked when I post stuff like this to the Medium-High-Full-Ring forums, sigh.
(Imo, I played the hand fine.)
(Fun fact: I take the exact same line with AA, and fold the river too)
