$1/$2 Nl Live Game: Jj Out Of Position


Recommended Posts

$1-2 No Limit at Peppermill Casino in Reno. Hero has $300, Villain (button) has $300. Villain is an old man with a baseball cap that covers his eyes. I haven't seen him play here before. So far, over the past 1.5 hours, he seems to play 80% of his hands and chases a lot of draws. I saw him call an all-in to chase a flush draw against a massive overbet and he got there on the river.I have J :ts J :5c in the Small Blind.MP1 limps, MP2 limps, Button limps. I raise to $20.MP1 calls, Button calls. FLOP: 5 :D 7 :D 2 :club: POT: $64I bet $45. MP1 folds. Button calls.TURN: A :4hHero?

Sick. I would probably lead out and make the defensive bet ($35). If he has 67s or a mid pair he will fold and if he raises or calls you can release or check the river. I have a feeling he has A4 in this spot though.

So he chases his draws down hard but does he stay around with a pair of 7's here. With the assumption that he would I would try and get three streets of value. The line I would take is Bet with fold to re raise and depending if the river is a K or some other bad card value bet.However If he can find a fold with pairs then I would check call for pot control and re evaluate river with probably a fold to a second barrel.

This is the problem with live poker when people make it 10x preflop. Multiple people call, you have to fire bigger on the flop, and get put in retarded situations.Hence, I don't play casino cash poker anymore. I think I'd bet $100 and just be done with the hand if he calls or raises.

I ended up checking, thinking that if the Ace hit him, he'd surely bet. I checked. Long pause, he asked "what happened? He checked?" then he threw out a $100 bill into the pot.Hero folds?

Yeah, I folded saying something like "KK no good eh? That ace is so sick." He turned up 96 of hearts saying something about a flush and a straight draw. In hindsight, should I have bet defensively on the turn? He has such a wide range of hands, and he doesn't necessarily have to have an ace in that spot. I didn't think he had AK or AQ since he limped behind preflop and then just called my overbet from the small blind.Sometimes I think I should play short stacked so I can just open-shove the flop with JJ as an overpair.

I probably CRAI on the turn because there are a lot more pair+Gutshots or pair+FDs in his range than there are Ax hands or sets. Since he calls with all of them, I like a shove.

I think this is retarded, bet a smaller amount. If he insta calls fire the river, if he takes forever check fold.

But Acid's right, isn't he? If the old man play 80% of his hands, then his range is wide. If I CRAI I'm surely getting my money in good a great deal of the time.

"Please sir, may I have another?"

Why is it so retarded? It's not like far and away the best solution or anything, but given the description of the villain, certainly it has a lot of merits, doesn't it?Edit: Also, I just see that there were results posted. SUCK IT NATE!!! :club: For real though, you really think a CRAI is that bad?

Why exactly is this line the line you would take?

Immediately took him for weak here without reading the results. I like the check raise if we were deeper
