StilettoNole 0 Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 OK, so I am 60 hands deep at this table and just crushing them. I am running ungodly hot (kings twice, queens once, A-Ks twice [one flush], 10-10 twice [one set], 7-7 [set] once, and A-Js once) and I won (to show down on most) all of these hands but two. I am up 4 buy ins and playing really aggressively. That's when this hand comes up:MP: total calling station/bluff master/tilt monkey who has dropped three buy ins already (once as a bluff into my kings full, lol)SB: Solid playerFull Tilt No-Limit Hold'em, $0.25 BB (5 handed) Full-Tilt Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver Cards)SB ($22.80)BB ($39)Hero ($127.35)MP ($24.30)Button ($36.55)Preflop: Hero is UTG with , . Hero raises to $0.85, MP calls $0.85, 1 fold, SB calls $0.75, 1 fold.Flop: ($2.80) , , (3 players)SB bets $2.75, Hero ?I guess my question is two fold:1. What line am I talking after the flop here?2. When you are running unbelievably hot, should you pump it more than standard pre-flop because no one believes that you can possibly have that many premium hands?For example, my standard pre flop raise was just to hit the raise pot button; however, I was getting a lot more callers than usual because no one was believing that I was running this good. Therefore, when I do pick up premium hands (like jacks, here), should I be raising more pre-flop?Thanks. Link to post Share on other sites
psujohn 0 Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 I'm calling this and looking to see what MP does and then re-evaluating the turn. If MP folds I'm likely raising any non-club turn card.As for betting more when people start playing back - yes in general it's not a bad idea. When you have the best hand bet as much as they're willing to call. With JJ UTG though I don't think you're premium enough to do so. JJ on the button sure. AA or KK UTG sure. Play a little with it and see where their threshhold of pain is. I like to bet like 1.10 to confuse them. Link to post Share on other sites
Sheiky 0 Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 I'd make it $7 to go, fold to a shove.I don't like flat calling with MP1 behind us because there's a lot of bad bad cards that can hit the turn. Link to post Share on other sites
Zach6668 513 Posted January 16, 2008 Share Posted January 16, 2008 For some reason this feels like a bluff/semi-bluff to me.I'm not sure exactly what the best play would be, though. Link to post Share on other sites
acesinhole7 0 Posted January 16, 2008 Share Posted January 16, 2008 I'm calling this, and reassessing on the turn. What kinds of hands, if any had SB been showing down? Any suited? Link to post Share on other sites
