Hey Guys
Bad Beat -
NO bad play -
YES
So back story to explain my play- i havn't made final table in weeks, in a decent sized field.
I am not a whinger but i am running terribad with my monsters in key positions (AK KK AA etc) but thats besides the point.
I am chip leader here 12 remaining - 3 before FT bubble.
I am playing well - maybe a tad too aggro - but with my stack i am able to bully alot - most of the time i am showing up with a hand on showdown, once i have shown down 56 suites UTG - So imo my perceived style to others is LAG - But to me i am actually having nice hands very playable hands with a good stack to do it with.
If im honest at this stage im looking to win this MTT but a final table maybe 4/5th would even be nice just for my mindset for future games.
A few of these players (villain included) have been getting it in KJ off on K or J high flops to preflop aggressors
My opinion of villian is exactly this, He could have any PP or Any Ace.
I had Jammed light to a short stack in the last 20 hands - winning with a flush on river (i had gut shot - one over and flush draw and i hit) 200k pot total but i know Villain saw this. Several other pots i was betting moderately just building my stack showing down medium to strong hands sometimes nuts.
My pot control here is just Awful - how would you play it.
Thing is with opponents range - its wide i should have let him bluff i think (if missed)
My line here would be
3bet flop fine (could have made it a bit more maybe 60k)
Flop bet half pot
Turn Check - Opponent more than likely bets here - its becoming draw heavy - so if pot is now standing at 140ish and Opponet bets 80k-100k(they was all betting big) and i call pot would be at 340k
if i check river - he will half to pot bet - 170-340k
whats my play.
