Game: 1/3 NLH, 7-handed, max buyin 500, effective stacks 810 (hero; villain covers).
Villain: Regular 2/5 LAG, probably best player in the casino, loves making huge overbets. Bluffs a lot to setup massive value when opponents call light. No respect to regular opponents and is capable of showing up with any two cards including 72s with the belief that he can outplay the fish. However, that being said, he is very capable of adjusting to hero whom he perceives as solid but on the tighter side of perfect frequencies.
Hero: 2/5 reg with lots of history with villain.
Hand: button straddle to 6, SB folds, hero in BB looks down at A
Q
and opens standard 5bb to 30. UTG folds, villain calls in MP, HJ calls 30, CO folds to button straddler who comes along. Pot: 120.
Flop: Q
9
8
Hero c-bets standard half pot to 65, which hero does at around 80% frequency, regardless of holdings. Villain calls. Folds around and we're heads up. Pot: 250. Effective stacks: 715.
Turn: 5
Completes the flush and the 67 straight draw, but hero is not too worried about villain having either draw yet. Hero still checks for balance (out of position) and also to let villain bluff at it. Villain obliges and bets 185. Hero thinks about it and calls. Easy standard call since I'm ahead a lot of the time with top-top and if I'm somehow behind, then I have the nut flush draw as backup. Pot: 620. Effective stacks: 530.
River: K
No sense donk leading now, and so hero checks. Villain ships it for 530 effective.
Hero:?
