villain is capable of bluffing i think, but not many hands into game



Hero (SB): $109.14 (218.3 bb)
BB: $85.37 (170.7 bb)

Preflop: Hero is SB with Q T
Hero raises to $1.50, BB raises to $5, Hero calls $3.50

Flop: ($10) A J K (2 players)
BB checks, Hero bets $5, BB calls $5

Turn: ($20) 4 (2 players)
BB checks, Hero bets $10.50, BB calls $10.50

River: ($41) 9 (2 players)
BB checks, Hero bets $20.50, BB Shoves All-In

Hero?



what are you thoughts re all streets here?

A good reg might take this line with KcQd, JcQd type hands. If you know he's capable of doing that or/and can shove worse here just call. I just dont see a good reg taking this line with a flopped flush too often.

looks really bluffy. I mean with a flush he wants to stack you. check/calling and praying you will bet all 3 streets to ch/raise AI river isnt really gonna make him a lot of money.

his line makes no sense at all.

3 bet to check / check / check / shove?

This player is a fish and could really have anything here sir.

I might play a royal flush like the villain did... just saying:P

snappidy snap

I guess, your betting range here is pretty polarized so I prefer a bigger sizing.

As played I call, since I have seen too much spew in hu matches and I can only see him playing QXdd like that and even that should bet

why are you betting so small

otf for pot control with three diamonds already

Turn similar and not sure what worse hands call a big bet

River same didn't think a Ax hand would call a $35 $32

When you have a big range adv (which you definitely do after he checks), the biggest mistakes you can make are betting too infrequently or too small.

this board is abit special in that its hard for in pos to have good bluffing hands though (almost all candidates have fairly low equity because its a 3bet pot and all broadway cards so there should exist very few single diamod hands ~ likely to an extent that in pos in fact needs to be using smaller bet sizing/frequency to prevent the 3bettor to exploit fold correctly on all streets)

that beeing said i'd still prefer to 75%ish pot atleast on the flop and turn since one pair + flush draw hands are frequently calling two and often folding river (size down on the river depending on what his strategy/your image is or w/e)

trippling hands like JT could be an idea (particularly against not-so-balanced opponents) on this board for a bluffing range

my2c, just first that comes to mind here

Definitely agree.

I don't follow. Why should the SB use a "small" bet size because his bluffs have low equity? We just have to "bluff" a bit less often, no?

I think that a well constructed 3bet range will have very few of the pair+fd hands on this board.

yea you're right, btw this deep he may even check aj, ak etc. on the flop since its so hard to play turn/rivers on so many runouts (which may or may not be correct)
