MirandaJ 0 Posted February 2, 2005 Share Posted February 2, 2005 I'm in a four handed game with a very agressive person to my right. he just got off a bad beat and you could tell he was steaming.action was folded over to him in the small blind. he raised my blind the standard raise and i looked down at A7 offsuit. i feel pretty comfortable playing on the flop so i just callflop comes down 844 and he moves in without a thought. so im looking down at A high and i got a good feel that its the best hand. after a while i call and he flips over just k2 offsuiti had him drawing to 6 outs but he caught a 2 on the riveri lost about 3/4 of my stack on that handwas that a good call or should i have just given him credit for the bluff and let it go Link to post Share on other sites
jayboogie 0 Posted February 2, 2005 Share Posted February 2, 2005 well it was a good read, but even if he was bluffing, you might not have had him beat here. WIth A7, you by no means have him dominated unless he was holding K7 or A2, something like that. If he wasn't holding a A or a 7, he still would have had 2 live cards to hit which he did. Just because he pushes all-in with nothing doesnt mean you should call him with nothing either. If he's going to play this way, just wait for a better spot to bust him.

Absolute 0 Posted February 2, 2005 Share Posted February 2, 2005 I need more information here. What was your stack, his? What were the blinds and what was the "standard" raise.As for your call, I have to agree that you need to wait for a better spot to bust him. You need a pocket pair or to hit the flop better here. Even a better kicker might justify a call.I would say your call was just as loose as his bet, but I need more particulars. Link to post Share on other sites
Eskimo 0 Posted February 2, 2005 Share Posted February 2, 2005 I think you should have either re-raised or folded pre-flop.On the flop when he moved all-in on you, you had to fold. Link to post Share on other sites
Pearl 0 Posted February 2, 2005 Share Posted February 2, 2005 A7 in 4 handed against an aggressive player who just got on tilt? push preflop. you know he is going to push the stack whatver the flop - so either fold to the raise or reraise all in. calling is not so great.

Smasharoo 0 Posted February 2, 2005 Share Posted February 2, 2005 Don't post results.It's not a great call. Even players on tilt hit flops, play back at him pre-flop if you think he's making a bad play with a random hand. Link to post Share on other sites
troll 0 Posted February 2, 2005 Share Posted February 2, 2005 I agree with your play here. I don't have a problem with just calling before the flop. After he moved all in if you are confident that your read on him is correct, then you should call is all-in. He hit the card he needed on the river and stuff like that is going to happen, but you got your money in with the best hand. Link to post Share on other sites
