I'd been at $1/2 table for maybe 30 hands or so. The table started 5 handed and I had the opportunity to take a few small pots with stabs (leads at donk pots etc...). Just won a pot where I limped 33 in the BB. Led small into 229. Got a caller. Binked a 3. Bet psb on turn and river to take it down.
So I might have had a fairly active image.
Villain had been playing TAG. Only played 3 hands... 2 with large opens (~$20 where the table standard was $8 - 14), and one limp/fold. No showdowns. But besides his tight play, he was a bit of a chatterbox and his stories gave off a little bit of a macho vibe. Didn't seem to be paying attention to the table - but who knows?
OTTH.
Stacks - Hero $260, Villain covers.
EP and Villain in SB limp to me in BB. Look down at black KK and raised to $12. Only villain calls.
Pot $25 or so. FLOP: Q
Q
9
Checked to me. I bet 15. Villain c/r to 50. I tank for 20 secs and call.
Pot $120 or so. Turn: 7
Villain bets out $75. Hero has about 175 back. Hero?
My thinking:
- Not much to go on - but Villain's table talk makes me think he's at least capable of semi-bluffing
- I block a few Qx combos, and AQ should have raised pre... so 20 or so QJ, QT combos (would he call raise with these?)
- If I assume a bluff - do I let him continue? Or give him a chance to shutdown? Or is the board too scary not to get it in?
