Table: 5am. 9handed. 6 regs. 2 major fish. 1 unknown. 3 of the 6 regs are 2/5 regs. 1 of those 3 I've seen in the 10/25 PLO game (deep pockets)

Hero: ($650). Mid 20s looking reg. I've been playing tighter than normal. I've been pretty quite for the last hour or so.

V1: ($1,200) Mid 30s looking Spewy fish that's been running hot. Very active. Has won 3 large pots (calling off people trying to bluff him) with 1 pair no kicker hands. He has shown up with hands also. ( raised and called 3bet with KTs and flopped 9JQ against JJ) and has flopped a couple sets. He has also been reraising scary boards and has 3bet pre several times (in and out of position)

V2: ($120). Has been calling tons of raises pre playing ATC if they're sooted or connected in anyway.

Hand:.....

Hero ($650) UTG: QcQs. Opens $15....

Folds to...

V1 ($1,200) BTN: Calls $15

V2 ($120) BB: Calls $15

Flop: ($42). Jd Jh 9h

V2 checks

Hero bets $30.

V1 & V2 call

Turn: ($136). 3s

V2 leads out for $30 (only $60 behind)

Hero?

Seems like calling is the right play getting 4.5/1, although it's s really gross spot. V2 could have a jack but also could have a 9 or maybe a PP like 88,77. I've seen people turn up with a 9 or 88 and they lead out on the turn to "see where I stand"

i would strongly consider a LRR given the setup.

flop is ok .. ,maybe a bit smaller would be better.

call turn

I would be raising more UTG given the table description. I would expect $20 to get called at that sort of table also.

Hero is paying off V2 if V2 has it. The question here is how to play against V1. There are more ways V1 can have a draw then a JX, it is a wet board and if hero calls V1 will be getting great odds to chase. That makes me want to raise, but I would hate for V1 to 3 bet the turn after hero raises. Add in the chance V2 does have Jx and hero is pretty much throwing money away by raising and I think calling is best.

lol. I don´t think V1 is 3 betting the turn without a hand that has us crushed. Easy raise for value. I raise to 1/2-2/3Pot.

Feels like either a call or a rr for the rest of V2's stack, any aggression from V1 and we know he has us beat but based on his description of being a spewy fish I'm guessing he's on a draw.

This only is good if V1 is going to call our raise, since otherwise we're then HU with the short-stack who probably has us beat.

I thought that V2 would check/raise gii otf if he had a J. He did not seem like the competent type to extra that kind of value from V1s wide range here.

I did not want to lay a great price for V1 to call with pretty much any draw and get there.....

I elected to raise to $90 (maybe on the small side?). Pretty much telling V1 I have a strong enough hand that I'm not worried about V2s range.....

Surprisingly enough, both players folded on the turn.



Sick brag.........

A couple hours later. I have 5c 7c in the BB. Limps and I check.....(I have around $900 to begin hand)

Flop ($12): 4c 6c 8c

V1 from previous hand is SB and he leads for $50 into the $12 pot.....

I call.

Turn ($112): Ks

V1 bets $150

I call

River: ($412). Ac

V1 shoves his remaining $600I call. He proudly turns over 8s Kc and I shop the $1700ish pot

BB special!!! yum yum yum
And that kind of flop is why the fishies can't fold hands like that pre.
