1/2 at a casino, full table. I was on the button with 2

.

This super annoying guy raises middle position. I have seen him complain when he gets drawn out on, yet celebrate when he draws out on some one where he should not have. Also making very bad calls to obvious value bets on river. I have him covered. Thinks he can put you on your exact 2 cards pre flop.

Folded to me.

I re raise. He calls.

Flop: 10

2 diamonds

He checks. I bet. He raises. My play here should be?

I honestly put him on A

X here.

you out-played him well, i especially like the part where you 3bet pre-flop and make suited trips.

Yea that was a mistake. I had seen him raising to 5 EVERY single hand if there were no raises to him. I figured I had position and had the best hand. Did not put him on 10 10 because this particular guy would raise 8x big blind with monsters pre flop.

This thread is amazing. I just realized the guy tanked with top set. I was too tilted by the lack of any pertinent information the first time through.

Seriously though not sure being in position is a great reason to 3b 22 there unless you are trying to rep a bigger hand and get some dead money in the pot for a c-bet. I would think you need some fold equity to make that a profitable raise since 22 usually doesnt flop well (is rarely an overpair on the flop). I guess what im wondering is was that raise for value or a bluff?

My humble opinion. If you reraise him pre flop... Cool... but.. You are doing this because of all the history (he puts you on two cards - suck outs etc.) - Any flop - you are shoving a big size overbet... If that was your plan - I say perfect. If your plan was - I'll repop preflop and then check fold - well..... don't re pop.

As played - get that shizzle in there. Make a bet that would pot commit you both to the turn and get it in on the turn or iver 100% of the time.

Ok now I hit the spolier but I will say this.. If he "tanked for 5 mins" with 1010 on that flop I would grab an olive sword from a passing by waiter and jam it directly into his left eye socket until he was dead dead dead. And then... and only then - I'd turn the 2... lol

lol. i missed the part where villain tanked for 5 minutes with top set. epic. was he talking to someone and didn't realize that you raised? was he flirting with the dealer or waitress? i mean, my god. did he see the 2 coming by accident and you had flipped up 22?

i really don't understand some live players.

Yes he really did have 10 10. I guess he figured I had 8

? I have tried to not care about these types of slowrolls, this is because they happen fairly often. I think it is poor play. I get my cards face up as soon as possible or declare my hand.

Thanks checkraise_ I was not even going to justify his post with a response, I will admit the original post was light on information.

Stack sizes?

It seems to me your tilting vs this annoying guy and trying to target him. Don't do that.

I don't like the 3bet preflop; we're bluffing and will have to fold a potential monster making hand if he reraises; I probably just call if stacks are reasonable and try to stack him if I hit a set.

Stack sizes are important, but in general I'd probably just reraise and try to get the chips in before a scare card comes. However, if you think he has Ax with one heart (I'm not sure why you would put him on that), then just call the flop cuz there is no way he's going to call off any more chips with that hand.
