1/2 Hollywood St Louis
Villain in question is a 60s white guy who has been quite loose but has also applied a fair amount of pressure. He is clearly a thinking player and fights for pots on coordinated boards but is far too loose. I.e. he will limp too much and call too many raises with weak broadways or low connectors, etc. He is probably a small winner in this game given he gives too much action to super tight players. Hero is young 20s white guy who has a fairly good image and has just recently stacked another player w/ JJ on JTx vs KQ.
1st Hand
Pre: 3 limps including V($750) and H($400) raises to $16 with A
T in the CO, folds back to V who calls
Flop($39): A
Q8
V cks, H bets $25, V calls
Turn($89): AQ8J V cks, H cks back
River($89): AQ8J4 V bets $50, H calls, V shows ??????
Since the last hand the V has moved to the seat directly on my left now and has made it clear with the table earlier he does not chop.
2nd Hand
Pre: Folds around to H($400ish) in SB w/ Q9 and makes it $10, V($900) in BB calls
Flop($20): QJ8 H decides to ck, V bets $15, H calls
Turn($50): QJ82
H cks, V bets $35, H calls
River($120): QJ827 H cks, V bets $60, H calls, V shows ??????
What do you guys think of how I played these two hands. Both calls or both folds? Both of these hands I had decent blockers I believe.
Which hand do you think is a winner and which is the loser?
