Villain is an aggro reg running 28/23/8.5 over 100 hands.Fold to Cbet 29%I took a very weird line, trying to make it look like I was on a flush draw on the turn.

I hate your line here, because you put yourself in this spot. But I think if you are calling the turn, you have to call the river. Just never play a hand like this again, unless you are trying to level somebody, but in that case you should already know what you are doing when they raise.Serious point for everyone: NEVER PUT A BET INTO A POT IF YOU DON'T KNOW HOW YOU WILL REACT TO A RAISE.

WTF @ no dunkin donuts?Fast food I can understand, but no donuts?
It has a drive thru so its a no go..the bet is interesting because technically a place like Saladworks is also not allowed which is a place where you can get a healthy meal.

This is basically what is going on here. I'm almost never taking this line (see what I did there?). He is the exception...I knew what I was going to do after calling the turn raise, I just wanted to see if what I was doing is what other people would as well.edit: I do have more stats on this guy from playing short-handed, but I don't know how to combine them all in HEM. He is clearly an aggro reg who likes to try to outplay people.

i really dont like the turn lead...or the turn call.I'm folding the river
What is he repping on the turn? He is 3betting AK pre, and might even be 3 betting 88 and 55. I don't have enough hands on him to know that. (3bet over these 100 hands was around 5%)So he can have a set, fd, turned straight/combo draw, or a worse king, with a (very, IMO) small chance of a set...and I'm ahead almost always.

Also...ouch, cwik. I didn't realize getting opinions on an unusual line was grounds for having your intelligence insulted by one of the most civil posters on FCP :)Maybe this hand was just too villain-specific to be discussed in a vacuum. The stats aren't telling the whole story.

Anyone have a recommendation on how to find a good accountant? I normally do them myself with Turbo Tax. But with the business and everything along with a couple other things, mine are going to be pretty complicated this year and I don't want to miss anything. I'm looking for someone that I can do all the legwork for by taking all my paperwork and condense it down to the things he needs (actually have already done this as I started to prepare to do them myself). Basically I don't want to have to go meet with someone for hours and if it can be done by email, scanning, faxing that would be awesome. I had already bought the programs but I started realizing how complicated it was going to be as I start to put in some initial info.
Hi, I have a couple of recommendations in the LA area if you are interested. Hope you find a good one!

Your thought process on the hand and your reaction are kind of all over the place. Sometimes you have enough info on villain, sometimes not...depending on what you are arguing for or against at the time.Also, don't post a ??? by your action if a few posts later you are going to make it obvious what you did. Just post the hand and leave the results blank

I'm a little confused... I didn't put the extra stats on the villain from 3/4 handed because they aren't as relevant. And if by defending my thought process gives away what I did, there isn't much I can do about that. Knowing what I did on the river shouldn't affect how you, personally, would proceed through the hand in terms of analysis.

Although my first thought was much like Cwik's about the line putting you in a really weird spot after talking to Ice about it I don't think I hate it as long as we call the river. Against this specific Villain we essentially flopped the nuts. Being that we are pretty much never folding here to him, taking a non-traditional line like this probably is going to extract more value than keeping control of the hand ourselves. If we are taking a line like this I think we have to be doing it with the thought that we are calling all the way down when Villain does what he did. And Cwik I don't think he probably took much time to call the river and I don't really think in the end his question was "do I call the river?" I think it was more of "how is my line?" and just posed the question incorrectly.

I guess you just were looking for more general thoughts on your line. The only thing I really have to add about the hand itself is not to level yourself into thinking that you need to make multi-level thinking plays against opponents with a small sample size...just taking the best line most of the time will be +EV the most in the long run.Oh and if you call turn you may as well call river, and if you bet turn you may as well call turn...so yea. I think c/c all the way down just like in the hand you posted a bit ago would be a better line here, this way you can never fold out a hand you want to keep coming. Here you gave him a chance to fold...You may have got a little extra $$$ out of it but is that worth it in the long run?
