akishore 0 Posted September 13, 2005 Share Posted September 13, 2005 $3/$6 hold 'em, six-handedCO is the only relevant villian. he is new to the table and i have absolutely no read.i'm CO with 8 7 .UTG limps, i limp, CO limps, ..., BB checks.(4 SB) A Q 4 BB checks, UTG checks, i check, CO checks.(2 BB) 4 BB checks, UTG checks, i bet, BB folds, UTG folds, i call.(6 BB) Q i check, CO bets, ...how good/bad is this raise specifically against an unknown?the purpose was to possibly and rarely fold a better flush and to make a "pro" player make an amazing laydown with 4-x. alternately, it might be to get value from an aggressive player who raised the turn with a worse flush draw.i also wasn't sure what to do if he three-bet. i think i'm folding but maybe i'm paying 1 BB more to see what he limps with here that has a 4 in it, or that he raises the turn with Q-x or what.honestly, i think my checkraise is pretty crappy, but i just felt like experimenting. any thoughts?aseem Link to post Share on other sites

screech 0 Posted September 13, 2005 Share Posted September 13, 2005 This play would be so much better with reads. Without them, it just seems silly. Call and pray he has an ace. Link to post Share on other sites
monoatomic 0 Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 I'm going to say it was very nice.More an A then a Q or 4. Blah Blah Blah...Trying to steal because he doesn't think you hit anything, blah blah blah.If I don't see that play 10 times in a session where the guy has Ax or shit, it just isn't a normal 6max 3/6 game.

looshle 6 Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 Don't like it at all, not much value you can get out of this. Link to post Share on other sites
PimpRock 0 Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 At 3/6 I dont think any flush or FH is passing for one bet. I know some of our heads will say "I fold a four here" but in my experience, it is going to showdown. Thats not to say you lose as the A checkraise is a realistic possibility.So, go on, who won?

How often will an ace call your checkraise there?How often will _anything_ that you have beat call your raise there?I think i prefer bet/folding or check/calling. Link to post Share on other sites
