No notes on villain.. he's like 50/25 over 4 hands.. so complete unknown.

bet more on turn so you rep the flush more? otherwise, nh

You don't think A on the river is an out? Seems like we have exactly the pot odds we need to call here. Also, as mentioned, bet turn.

Vs GoldStar i see he is 4 tabling. Figure he is a decent player.

I only have 20 hands on him so...

Vs most other players i'm folding pre. Anyway i choose to defend my first hand at the tbl and flat his open. Its a dryish board so i check raise the flop and semi-bluff just under half the pot on a brick turn.

Should my turn bet be more like 3/4 pot? Or more?

I figure he is good enough to see my smallish bet as i have him beat and want him to call.

I like this as an OOP play against good players. Can i do it better?

fold pre

Please explain why. Also say why my assumption is not good.

The A can be around 2 outs, so why is a bet here good? IF think our EQ is about max 25%. And please explain why i should bet turn.

@ primone, bet the turn

@ ice wolf, check the turn

@ JJSyd, fold pre, fold the flop. you literally rep nothing with a c/r here

@ Take Pills, fold the turn

Explain why or dont say anything. Explain with odds, assuming our EQ for a bet on turn...etc.

Only 5 hands on villain playing 60/40. Hows my line here? Raise flop? Bet more on Turn?

villain is 23/14/3.7 with 43% fold to 3bet. he folded to 4/4 flop cbets in 3b pots.
don't really know, what he's minraising with there but i think the range he gets to the turn with has me crushed.

should i rather b/f turn?

I´ve got some doubts about that 2nd barrel...

Yepp bet turn more, like 80%, huge EQ here with flushdraw and 2 pairs. On River i cant see much to do, i think we are beat here, i often fold these hands, i cant put a range here that we beat when he gone this far with mayeb 1 pair and got 2 pairs now. I think there isnt any hand we beat here, he should have some sort of Ax 2 pairs.

yeah why bet it, do you have a balancing range for 2nd barrel Ahi hands or what? Ahi have SD-EQ so why even bet it and i thin kwe are beat in this case with such a dry board like this, setmined maybe.

And btw for all that posted on this page, dont show results!

Uuu, this is right on the spot for a call right?

Hi, I'm pretty sure this is a fold as played. I am wondering though if I would have been better off 3betting pre or maybe raising flop as a semi bluff what do you guys think?

z_wink: I dont call this PF, maybe QJs if fish calls alot then i think i can balance CC with this hand if CO is loose.

Yepp call flop then i fold turn, nothing more to do.

Vs total maniac! 91/48 over 69 hands. Every hand raise reraise and by some miracle not only has he survived but chiped up.

I check the flop as i have been doing vs him and he checks behind. I know he has hit the 6 because every other hand not matter what he bets.

I actually put him on A6 raising UTG so while it was a huge risk i was willing to push my luck.

Knowing he has at least trip 6's i over bet the pot on the river. Should i fold? Vs anyone else i would or maybe just call but i wanted this guys stack so bad.

JJSyd: Fold PF i would say but maybe its OK if hes totaly crazy, 98s i would probably play.
And you dont know he has the 6 on the flop, its impossible to KNOW that.
We have a straight vs a maniac, what else to say...

Yeah i was 90% he hit the set. And 100% sure he would call a shove if he did. This is the only reason i tried the move. In a perfect world i would have waited for a better spot. I guess all "good" players are folding pre and not making the move without the nuts?

Obviously the river raise is totally for value against this villian, and that's your idea of "making move"?

Folding preflop is the right play here. You are OOP vs a maniac and how often are you going to hit a big hand and get paid off?

He doesn't want to do thinking for you. You should try to think why those moves are good by yourself. And if you have no clue for example why calling is beter than raising, you should ask.

I already have so read posts first you do anything! Ppl are so lazy here.

No notes, i dont have odds to call this turn, but is my implied odds that good so i can call it? In my opinion no, the board is so damn dry so when he call like this he gotta have something, his fold to flop CB is about 40% so not that extrem call station. But his bet on turn is very small, we have about 4:1 to call it and we get 3:1, i think OOP its okey to fold it, the implied doesnt weight that much.
