Result:
So some history, V is a ~30 year old Asian guy with sunglasses and a hood up. I've seen him blast off on scary boards with 0 blockers (bet turn jam river on flush board with K high no flush cards and showed). Seems to be hyper aggro. When I sat down the guy next to me specifically pointed him out. I'm probably perceived as having a tight image due to just trying to play nutted hands pre in pos (vs this guy) and still folding marginal hands in BU/CO even when it limps around.
Pre:
Standard. Don't think anything needs to be said here
Flop:
I have a nut gutshot and bdnfd and decided to cbet to fold out hands with some equity, but thinking about it now I really don't want to get x/r and be forced to fold (right?). If I do want to cbet, what sizing is best? I admittedly put out a generic half pot without really thinking. Better to take a free card in pos here?
Turn:
His lead is super small. Can I call here given that there's a decent chance he just has air and I probably don't have a 7 given the 3b pre? If not, what hands do I want to call with? Obviously boats, but that's not enough. Nfd? JT + fd?
River:
Apologies if you're tearing out your hair while reading this HH. I fell in love with this game after finding myself hating playing NLH cash, and I'm just trying to learn and get better.
