Hi everybody,
Got an opportunity to play HORSE yesterday for the first time in a while, I mostly just played tight in everything, but felt like these two O8 hands were the worst situations I got myself in. I'll post the other one in another thread.
HH1 -- five hands in, so more or less readless, although I believe the preflop 3-bettor had already 3-bet once so he seems a bit LAGgy to me in general.
Hero has AAKT three diamonds in the BB. UTG (25-30yo kid) raises, UTG+1 (LAGgy V, about 45) 3-bets, folds to me,
I just call?, UTG calls.
Flop (9.33SB): J
9
7
I bet intending to 3-bet if raised...? UTG calls, UTG+1 raises, I 3-bet, UTG folds, UTG+1 caps, I call.
Turn (9.16BB): J
9
7
[3
]
I check, UTG+1 bets, I call.
River (11.16BB): J
9
7
3
[8
]
I check, UTG+1 bets,
I fold?
I bolded the three main decision points I'm not sure about -- is preflop a 4-bet? Is flop terrible? And is folding the river in a pot this big for one bet bad? Thanks.
