Solar 0 Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 I don't hate it. Its generally better just to raise flop or raise more on the turn, but often we just scare off 1 pair. Deeper stacks you would definitely have to show more speed early on. The goal was to get villain all in, which you did, and no obvious draws hit. I wouldn't consider folding the river for 1 nanosecond. Link to post Share on other sites
DemonDonk 0 Posted August 11, 2009 Author Share Posted August 11, 2009 Does my river play change if villain had $9 behind, say? Link to post Share on other sites
reboot 0 Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 Fancy play syndrome. Don't slowplay sets.And no, your play doesn't change. If it's set over set you just get stacked. Get used to it. If you're not getting stacked sometimes, you aren't playing aggressively enough. Link to post Share on other sites
qnshustler 0 Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 You played it fine. Sure you usually should raise flop and probably preflop but mixing it up a little bit to disguise your hand is OK. If villain has AA he played it very poorly and you shouldn't worry about it if you get stacked. I think something like AJ fits his line much better. Link to post Share on other sites

Dubey 1,035 Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 1. 3-bet preflop. a minraise and a bunch of callers, make it $1.20 or so.2. I don't hate check/calling the flop3. I probably lead the turn. there a a bunch of draws out there now and he checks behind with a large part of his range. lead for 3/4 pot.4. as played, don't ever consider folding this river, ever ever ever ever ever. ever.

I just noticed this is full ring so I sometimes flat w/ 1010 here and sometimes 3/bet, but I probably 3-bet more often. Link to post Share on other sites

Can I really c/f this river?results-orient........No you aren't check folding that ****ing river.your line is a little passive pre/post flop, but it's acceptable. I believe this is purely bad beat, not strat....unless you solely want to discuss what you could have done different on the flop. But it's really inconsequential for this hand i think.

mtdesmoines 3 Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 lol "aa got there"forget about AA "getting there" on the river, didn't you see J7 "get there" on the turn? Link to post Share on other sites
DonkSlayer 1 Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 Anybody else c/s the turn? AA/KK/QQ are calling and JJ is either/or on a lot of different lines. Link to post Share on other sites

pokerinc 0 Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 seems like a good river to me. A bad JA now has reason to stack off. Not nearly as worried about aa as I am about jq on this board fyi.Not folding for 3 or 9 on the river though. Link to post Share on other sites
slink 1 Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 I see nothing wrong with this hand at all.thisIf he has aces he is staying for the river, though also agree with don't slowplay trips. Link to post Share on other sites
Temporary Nuts 1 Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 This is by no means the worst slowplay ever since you do have the board crushed on the flop and you did make a legitimate raise on the turn (which I assume you would have done no matter what turn card hit).As played ez shove on the river.

DemonDonk 0 Posted August 12, 2009 Author Share Posted August 12, 2009 I might apologise for topic, I got really tilted after a losing session yesterday and started doubting my plays which on reflection were not so bad. It's just that I never slow-play at microstakes and villain obv turned up with AA (took all his time-bank to call the ****). And this has been my first under-set in like 2 months and it still managed to tilt me. Link to post Share on other sites
