Snamuh 0 Posted October 7, 2007 Share Posted October 7, 2007 I just don't see the point in calling here. You're a better player than me though. Link to post Share on other sites

Dictius 0 Posted October 7, 2007 Share Posted October 7, 2007 He has a pretty low AF, so even though his range is huge preflop, his low AF makes me think he has QQ beat when he raises. Link to post Share on other sites

davezz5 0 Posted October 7, 2007 Share Posted October 7, 2007 I make continuation bet on flop and take it from there. Considering the amount of action on the turn i don't like your 2/1 much. For me this is an easy fold. Link to post Share on other sites
NoBBiR 0 Posted October 7, 2007 Share Posted October 7, 2007 I'm getting like 2-1 here on the turn.You're really getting about 1.5:1, and even though I feel that a large portion of the time this is a draw, I really don't think I'd be calling unless I felt the guy is just utterly retarded.If I had both the Queen of hearts and Queen of clubs maybe it would be more marginal if the guy is a maniac, but you don't even have either of the queens to kill flush draw outs. I think I'd be dumping this out of a fear of a naked ace or a random 8 always. Link to post Share on other sites
Acid_Knight 2 Posted October 7, 2007 Author Share Posted October 7, 2007 You're really getting about 1.5:1There's $13 in the pot, then $8 3 ways, making $37 in the pot plus his $34 raise and I gotta call like $34. Link to post Share on other sites
Snamuh 0 Posted October 7, 2007 Share Posted October 7, 2007 It's 2.08:1, minus rake of course. Link to post Share on other sites

DrawingDeadInDM 0 Posted October 7, 2007 Share Posted October 7, 2007 Sounds like you're WA/WB getting 2:1..pretty standard call if I'm understanding the situation right, though, I don't pretend to know what those fancy numbers mean. Link to post Share on other sites

Those fancy numbers mean that he's playing like 71% of the hands and is fairly aggressive.I just give too much credit thinking "he can't check trips here cause of all the draws and expect to get a c/r in cause there's only one guy left to bet" but when they're not thinking like that anyway, it doesn't matter.So, I thought it'd be either a draw or a full house and not much in between, so I called. Turned out he had J8o. I guess this should've been folded, but he seemed like enough of a donkey to make this profitable, but maybe not. Link to post Share on other sites

I obv thought it wasn't that bad just because it seemed too weird for him to check trips on the turn there, or an ace even, given how many draws were out there. It turned out I was wrong, but yeah, he'll show up with a draw sometimes, but I'm not convinced it'll be enough to turn a profit here. Link to post Share on other sites

I mean, when I was reading it, I was thinking, "WTF do we beat?" And then I kinda remember my own experiences and how many guys show me their TT here and are like, "I KNEW YOU HAD NOTHING LOLOLOLOL"So, I dunno.. I think you can pick worse spots.

David_Nicoson 1 Posted October 7, 2007 Share Posted October 7, 2007 At the risk of looking stupid, I have to say I would fold here without much thought. A check-raise on the turn almost always beats top pair. I've already folded and started reading FCP before I start considering the villain's stats.I've never gotten comfortable coming to conclusions based on AF, because it lumps together people that fold a lot with people that bet & raise a lot. Plus there's the question of including or excluding the preflop action. Did the button's reputation play into this? How aggressive is he? Link to post Share on other sites
AimHigher 0 Posted October 7, 2007 Share Posted October 7, 2007 I fold here, even if they are maniacs. There is an overpair, and we are totally out of position.You are going to be in much better spots than this one later on in the session. Link to post Share on other sites
Temporary Nuts 1 Posted October 7, 2007 Share Posted October 7, 2007 Call, he's got King high with no draw...and catching his king on the river obviously Link to post Share on other sites
AimHigher 0 Posted October 7, 2007 Share Posted October 7, 2007 One hand that makes a lot of sense is 66 for the CO. I can see him coming in preflop, and checking the ace to the button who will probably bet (but doesn't), checking when he fills his hand on the turn as nobody has made any moves at this pot and the ace is out there. The button leads on the turn because he has been checked to twice and the CO thinking there is a bet and a call ahead of him decides to push as there is $30 in the pot already and it is likely one of you will call.
