milestodavid 0 Posted January 7, 2006 Share Posted January 7, 2006 no need to make that play if he's got nothing but a draw or TP ace kicker. call here. Link to post Share on other sites
murmar 0 Posted January 8, 2006 Author Share Posted January 8, 2006 Well, I said I made the wrong play. Is it better to call if he's got the straight/JJ or fold if he's got QJ or KQ? Regardless, I folded and he showed KQ. I didn't think he could make that play with a tight lady betting and me raising without 910. Oh well. Link to post Share on other sites

jayistheman 0 Posted January 9, 2006 Share Posted January 9, 2006 well, we do have some reads to think about here.i'm assuming that since he is bitching about a lack of cards, hes relatively tight?? is 9 T in his range?Also, his frustration would make me more inclined to call.

David_Nicoson 1 Posted January 9, 2006 Share Posted January 9, 2006 5/10 nl. 4 limpers, blinds = 60In that case, I 'm not worried about a bigger set. We have outs against T9. Full speed ahead. Link to post Share on other sites

Tightlady thinks, folds. I ?It ever come to mind that hes overplaying something decent because hes bored and overanxious to take down a big pot. Dont fold sets on pretty nonthreatening boards.Lets also note that vs 910 our set is about 34% to win. So we need a little less then 2:1 if we are positive we are up against 910 every time.Their is 365 + his 500 bet in the pot so we are getting 1.73:1 on a call. So you better be pretty damn sure that he has 910 in order to fold. Link to post Share on other sites
tryptout 0 Posted January 9, 2006 Share Posted January 9, 2006 well, we do have some reads to think about here.i'm assuming that since he is censored about a lack of cards, hes relatively tight?? is 9 T in his range?Also, his frustration would make me more inclined to call.Exactly my thoughts. Plus, the comment "I'll just call..." Doesn't sound like the kind of thing 9 10 says. A tight player waiting for cards would not "just call" w/ QQ or JJ in MLP w/ limpers, so I've got him off of that. I'd have him on AQ or KQ / KQ s so fast. And, like the above posters say, in the chance that the read is just dead wrong and he does have 9 10, you've got outs. Link to post Share on other sites
cu in 4years Dan 1 Posted January 28, 2006 Share Posted January 28, 2006 hard to say without being there... but...my guess is that hes irritated that hes not getting any cards, hes frustrated and he wants some action on a draw and hoping to hit? get his "prosperity" back as they say lol.also if he reckons his cards are cold ide think hed want to maximise his monster hand by slow playing it as this is a once off time that he has anything to play with Link to post Share on other sites
pokerplayer101 0 Posted January 28, 2006 Share Posted January 28, 2006 I know how these tight asian players are. I probably would have folded as well. But I agree with the other players that the fact that he says I'll just call shows that he's got a better hand than 9 10 and also the fact that he's frustrated makes him more inclined to make that move with top pair.

DrawingDeadInDM 0 Posted January 29, 2006 Share Posted January 29, 2006 You know what's really interesting about flopping a set? There's only one situation I can think of when we're dead. We have KK.Villain has AKFlop; AAK This is not one of those situations and it's not even close. If this guy is that frustrated he's pushing top pair, top two, maybe an over pair. Don't lay down sets on boards like this, please? Don't give him credit for T9. Even if he does, we've got plenty of outs. Link to post Share on other sites
