Mockerman1 0 Posted June 7, 2007 Share Posted June 7, 2007 This is certainly a standard spot, but I'm wondering how to play this/where you guys would improve on this play. This took place at a $100NL 6-max table, and I didn't have any reads on the guy (hadn't played with/hadn't been there long). Stacks were effectively 100 each (he may have had me slightly covered), and I don't recall all suits.Hero, in BB dealt: 10x10x Villian limps in the CO, SB completesHero Raises $2.25 to $3.25. Villian calls. SB Folds. Heads up to the flop.FLOP (Pot: $7.50):8s5s5xHero bets $4, Villian calls.TURN (Pot: $15.50):3xHero bets $8, Villian calls.RIVER (Pot: $31.50):JsHero ????Is the standard response to pot flop and/or turn? Does any of this change, as I found out as I played with the guy if the villian is loose/passive? Any help appreciated. Link to post Share on other sites
Zach6668 513 Posted June 7, 2007 Share Posted June 7, 2007 It really sucks to be out of position... lol.I think you should be betting a little more on the flop, perhaps $6, and following that up with a 2/3 pot bet, or so, on the turn.As played, and probably how it played out in my scenario, I'd c/c the river for a reasonable bet.

fckthis 0 Posted June 7, 2007 Share Posted June 7, 2007 bet more on flop and turn. It'll define your hand and his hand more. He could be looking up with an 8, probablywouldve raised the turn with a 5, so he could be on the spade draw. I'd check the river and call a reasonable sized bet. Hopefully you induce a bluff???

We may still be ahead of villain, and I don't think AJ calls a raise and goes heads up with hero, calling down to river. If villain had a strong hand (overs), you would think he'd want heavier action post flop. I think we bet $20 and see what villain does. I don't think we can call a push.
