Late in WPT Fallsview, the level of play in this field ranges drastically. A few good online pros, local grinders, and lots of fish of all kinds.
Background: We got moved to this table about an hour ago. There are two massive stacks at the table of over 270K and 200K and everyone else at the table has between 20K - 80K, most are close to 40K. Avg. in the tournament is about 55K at this point.
The villain has the big stack of 200K, we just witness this hand 5 minutes ago.
UTG+1 has 50K, MP1 has 220K. Blinds 600/1200 w/ 200 ante, 8 handed.
that went UTG+1 raises to 2.5K, MP1 (Villain) 3 bets 6.5K, folds back to UTG+1 and he 4 bets to 14.5K, MP1 calls. Flop is AT3r, check, check, turn T, check, check, river 6, check, MP1 shoves. UTG+1 calls. MP1 has AJ and UTG+1 has A8s (he was eliminated).
MP1 is a younger player (I think I heard him say he was 31). We are 7 handed. With 3 old nits who are very passive (One old nit got down to 12K before finally shoving and doubling up vs my button raise of 76s and him with A9) and the 3 young pros, 2 with the big stacks.
The hand in questions,
Hero has 45K
Villain 270K
Blinds are 800/1600 w/ 200 ante, Hero has AJ UTG (J of diamonds) and raises to 3,700. Villain in MP 3 bets to 8,000, Hero calls? (How many people just pitch it right here)? I was thinking about 4 betting all-in here.
Flop: T
2 3
Hero checks, Villain bets 6K, Hero calls.
Turn: 8
Check, Check,
River: 4
Hero checks, Villain shoves
I was planning to actually call a small bet or maybe thinking about bluff raising the river.
I Didn't call because I thought it would really suck if villain shows up with AQ in this spot. It's kind of tough for him to have a big hand when he checks the turn. So I was thinking he is pretty polarized. If he wants me to call he would more likely be betting something like 10 - 15K.
How would you play this hand differently. It feels too weak to fold to such a small flop bet. I think I should have lead the river big.
