His view of you is pretty important here, Id think this is a fold though

[whatgreatis 0]

His view of you is pretty important here

He knows I'm capable of folding hands. He's tried to sit with me once at a hu table and he once saw me horrible misplay a hand vs him and then he berated me. That's all I know.Edit: I see you slipped in that it might be a fold. What do you think his value range is?

[tskillz187 0]

For value I think he's betting any set, 66, and QQ+. Also judging from how he just played me, I think he'd push spades here an okay amount and stuff like 9Thh.Edit: Oops.

Cool I guess I am taking that room from the 19th onwards (pending Mark's confirmation).Gary I hope you are an attractive man

FWIW I don't hate a flop check but the way you played it is fine also. How balanced is your range in spots like this? I'm guessing you pretty much never have a 6 in your range here, thus a good villain will be able to capitalize on that. It's close because there shouldn't be many 6x hands in his range either (other than 66), though I don't know what his UTG range is here. The main thing that makes me really want to fold is if he's turning hands into bluffs here often. I would guess that his range is going to be mostly pocket pairs, most of which have sets or apparent showdown value (and probably wouldn't bet the turn). Thus I'd probably fold.Edit: On second thought, I can't imagine him not raising a set on this flop. So his value range is pretty much 6x hands - 66, 67s, 68s, 56s?

Close one but I lean towards a call. You're showing a lot of weakness in this hand and he seems to be the kind of player to pounce on that. Think he shows up with TT, JJ and missed draws a lot here but ocassionally a set. IMO.

You think he shows up with hands like 86 raising UTG and then calling a 3-bet?

[tskillz187 0]

FWIW this is same villain as Whatgreatis. So he definitely turns some made hands into bluffs.

How balanced is your range in spots like this? Not very. I'm never playing AKss like this and I'm almost always going to have 99+ maybe 89dd though.Edit: On second thought, I can't imagine him not raising a set on this flop. So his value range is pretty much 6x hands - 66, 67s, 68s, 56s?I thought the same thing about him raising a set on this flop. He's the type of villain who if he's going to bluff he'll probably empty the clip. I've had him empty the clip vs me a few times. I think his value range is 45/67/78sooooted. Also JJ+

It's close but I'd call. I don't remember ever playing with this villain. But go with your gut depending on table dynamics and stuff. Also if you have a good sample size 3 bet call% or whatever is pretty important. The higher it is the more suited-connector missed draw type hands like QKs, 910d, etc he would have.It would also be good to know if he's tricky or just a multier on autopilot because he should raise a set on the flop unless he's trying to be tricky. He's doing this with 44-88 but I wouldn't think 99-JJ(unless he's knowingly bluffing with those hands), plus the many missed draws makes me wanna call, but folding is never wrong

graph? that's sick - a buyin every 5 minutes on one table?

had about $180 on the table then met this guy

I included relevant stacks. And, they're Bodog hands.

Aren't all the stacks relevant? If someone makes a weird sized bet it might be because of someone with a short or really large stack behind them that affects their range.
