Full Version: 66 From Sb After Button Open Limp W Maniac In Bb
FCP Poker Forum > Poker Strategy Forum > Short Handed Texas Hold'em

BB is a 50/27/3.25 who has never folded a blind in an hour. He goes to showdown about 60% of the time, and bluffs more than his fair share. He's running hot atm.

I didn't raise because I'm not getting it HU anyway, and I have zero bluff equity against BB on future streets.

Is my line good?

66 can be tough to play post flop vs 2 players, but I think it's still a raise pf. Villians basically have any mediocre to bad hands. We have a big edge here. I think I like a donk on this flop. It would be bad to have this checked through. I like the turn. Are you not c/r certain cards?
RabidTortuga
I should have led the flop for sure. I'm looking to c/r any turn card that strengthens my hand. As played I probably have to just call any A-J. In truth without leading the flop I wonder if a better line is simply to call the turn and plan to call the river ui.

I personally just bet bet bet here and call down if raised... Is that bad?

my instinct is to say you have to raise this preflop 100% of the time, but if BB is never folding then im actually a little unsure.

related tidbit because i'm so in love with "don't even look at your cards" situations....

when i have a button who open limps to me and a tight person in the BB i will often raise ATC and bet the flop. the type of players who open limp the button often play very fit or fold in that situation and they never seem to catch on.

Hey......wait a minute......

You for sure have had raised pre-flop and then bet the whole way through. It makes the hand ALOT easier then how you played it.

You raise light... or do you include the 83 offsuit and 74 offsuit?

i exaggerate. find me the right button and the right BB though and its probably right to raise close to ATC.

and for reverse implied odds reasons those hands probably fare better than hands like Q2o because of when the BB does play with us (since we never intended to show our hand down anyway).
