Just got done with short 2 hour session at Bellagio 1/3. Bought in for 300 and cashed out for 550. Played a pretty funny hand where I check-raised the river for value with the 3rd nut flush on a double pair board, which I ended up getting piled on, I didn't expect the 3 bet shove but I ended going with my read and calling and being right. I'll be go into details in the next paragraph.
I had just tabled changed and had been running over the table with only one showdown. The table was super soft and full of fishy tourists with the exception of two young TAG wizardy kids, who both had been running pretty bad. This hand starts off with me checking back my BB with Q
7
with 5 limps behind me.
Flop ($19):
8
3
3
It's checks all the way through
Turn ($19):
8
Again, it checks all the way though and I'm certain nobody has an 8 or 3.
River ($19):
2
I hit my backdoor flush and since I'm certain nobody has a boat and my plan is to check raise anyone that decides to bet 44, 55, 66, 77 for value or maybe even small suited connected hearts like 56, 45, T9 etc of hearts for thin value. I check and villain in cutoff bets 20 with about 120 behind. It folds to me and I snap raise to 45. Villain snap rips in her stack in and it's 75 for me to call. I started the hand with $420 so I easily have her covered. I tank and start thinking of what she has.
I am 100% she doesn't have an 8 or 3 because she is type of player that would of bet the turn because she is too fishy to trap and wouldn't be able to contain herself with such a big hand without putting money in the middle on the turn. so her range is now narrowed down to small to middling pocket pairs and suited connected hearts like 45, 56, T9 etc. With my image and how I've been running the table over I'm pretty sure she thinks I am trying to blow her off hand with Ace high or a small pocket pair so her shove is intended to get me to fold.
I go with my read and call with Q
7
on a board reading:
8
3
3
8
2
She says flush and rolls over J
T
and I drag the pot.
I was pretty happy how that hand played out, as I pride myself by getting razor thin value when I have the chance. Thoughts?
